Color infrared summer (leaf-on) and true color spring (primarily leaf-off) high-resolution aerial imagery from the year 2001 (New York City Department of Information Technology and Telecommunication, unpublished data) was used as the basis for manually modifying the 2010 tree canopy layer to 2001 conditions, once again at a scale of 1 1,000.
At Planting Fields Arboretum, a 409-acre state historic park in Oyster Bay, the 200 cultivated acres of flower beds are fertilized primarily with leaf compost and organic products, according to Vincent Simeone, the assistant director.
The qRT-PCR analyses showed that OsBEIIa was expressed primarily in leaf, stem, and seed in wild-type and sug-h mutant plants (Fig. 6a).
Materials used were primarily sporophytic leaf tissue samples/cultivated stocks collected from localities in Japan, but conspecific material from outside the country was substituted for 17 taxa that are difficult to obtain from Japanese localities.
To date, plant response to herbivorous infestation and the subsequent behavioral responses of natural enemies to these herbivores have focused primarily on leaf chewing [5], [10] and cell-content feeding insects [20] [21], with a few cases for sucking/piercing insects [22].
Photosynthesis in C3 plants occurs primarily within leaf mesophyll cells.
The produced tasiRNAs displayed quite different tissue specificity; the majority of ppa024533m-derived tasiRNAs were found in root, the majority of ppa016135m-derived tasiRNAs were primarily in leaf and ppa010908m-derived tasiRNAs were distributed mostly in fruit.
In past work, we found that for Stemphylium, the retention of water on leaves (determined primarily by leaf size) was a key factor influencing plant disease development among clover species (Bradley et al. 2003).
In contrast, miR169c and miR169g had clearly distinct organ-specific expression profiles; while miR169c was expressed at high levels in the root, stem, leaves and flowers, miR169g was expressed primarily in leaf and flowers.
