Antifreeze proteins are found in a wide range of overwintering plants where they inhibit the growth and recrystallization of ice that forms in intercellular spaces. Unlike antifreeze proteins found in fish and insects, plant... more
Cold stress is very detrimental to crop production. However, only a few genes in rice have been identified with known functions related to cold tolerance. To meet this agronomic challenge more effectively, researchers must take global... more
Background: Recently emerging approaches to high-throughput plant phenotyping have discovered their importance as tools in unravelling the complex questions of plant growth, development and response to the environment, both in basic and... more
Various environmental stresses limit the plant growth and productivity. Earlier we reported the stress inducible dehydrin gene, OsDhn1, in rice. In this study we generated OsDhn1-overexpression transgenic rice plants (OsDhn1-OXs) to... more
Low temperature is an important environmental factor that limits the survival, productivity and geographical distribution of plants. Oil seeds are the second global food resources among which Brassica napus L. is the third annual oil seed... more
The present experiment designed to evaluate the response growth characteristics of two soybean cultivars (032 and BP) to cold stress (5 °C) at two light intensity levels [normal (8000 lux) or low light (2000 lux) intensity]. Treatments... more
The R2R3-type OsMyb4 transcription factor of rice has been shown to play a role in the regulation of osmotic adjustment in heterologous overexpression studies. However, the exact composition and organization of its underlying... more
Publicly available microarray data and RNA gel blot analysis identified a rice WRKY transcription factor, OsWRKY71, that is highly upregulated in response to cold stress. Experiments with OsWRKY71 promoter:GFP transgenic rice confirmed... more
Winter wheat (Trificum aesfivum L. cv Monopol), spring wheat (Trificum aesfivum L. cv Katepwa), and winter rye (Secale cereale 1. cv Musketeer) grown at 5°C and moderate irradiance (250 pmol m-2 -1 s ) (5/250) exhibit an increased... more
Crop plants encounter environmental stresses, both abiotic and biotic stresses. Abiotic stress has main impact on the crop productivity worldwide, reducing average yields for major crop plants. These abiotic stresses are interconnected as... more
Winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv Monopol), spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv Katepwa), and winter rye (Secale cereale L. cv Musketeer) grown at 5[deg]C and moderate irradiance (250 [mu]mol m-2 s-1) (5/250) exhibit an increased... more
Salicylic acid (SA) plays an important role in the regulation of plant ripening and responses to abiotic stresses. In this study, the protective effect of SA on cold stress-caused oxidative damage in grape (Vitis vinifera L.) bunches was... more
Effect of cold on antioxidant responses in aerial (shoots and leaves) and roots tissues of two contrasting accessions of M. ciliaris Krockers (Cil 126, tolerant and Cil 123, sensible) were investigated. Ten-day-old grown seedlings were... more
Winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv Monopol), spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv Katepwa), and winter rye (Secale cereale L. cv Musketeer) grown at 5[deg]C and moderate irradiance (250 [mu]mol m-2 s-1) (5/250) exhibit an increased... more
Peach and nectarine (Prunus persica L.) are highly perishable; they ripen and deteriorate quickly at ambient temperature. Storage at low temperature (0–5 °C) is a common strategy used to slow the ripening processes and to extend shelf... more
