Ethylene (ET) plays a critical role in the activation of plant defenses against different biotic stresses through its participation in a complex signaling network that includes jasmonic acid (JA), salicylic acid (SA), and abscisic acid... more
Caffeic acid (CA), which is ubiquitously present in plants, is a potent phytotoxin affecting plant growth and physiology. The aim of our study was to investigate whether CA-induced inhibition of adventitious root formation (ARF) in mung... more
Information concerning the sugar status of plant cells is of greatimportance during all stages of the plant life cycle. The aim of this work wasto study primary carbohydrate metabolism in hairy roots of red beet. Growth ofhairy roots of... more
Marco António Teixeira Zullo1,*, Ladislav Kohout2 and Mariangela de Burgos Martins de Azevedo1 1Phytochemistry Laboratory, Instituto Agronômico (IAC), PO Box 28, CEP 13001-970 Campinas, SP, Brazil; 2Institute of Organic Chemistry and... more
The present review deals with the importance of fruit thinning in peach.The date of treatment, the severity and the criteria underlying the practiceare discussed. Methods of fruit thinning are described, with particularemphasis on the use... more
A successful protocol for high frequency callus induction and plant regeneration from Anthurium andreanum Linden ex André cv. Tropical half-anthers is described. Different variables using Winarto and Teixeira and Murashige and Skoog basal... more
The influence of air vapor pressure deficit (VPD) and plant fruit load on the expansion and water relations of young tomato fruits grown in a glasshouse were evaluated under summer Mediterranean conditions. The contributions of phloem,... more
The effect of thidiazuron (TDZ) on the micropropagation of Camellia sinensis (China hybrid) was compared with that of benzylaminopurine (BAP) using nodal segments from in vitro raised seedlings. Extremely low concentrations of TDZ... more
The modern agriculture is based on the intensive technologies of plant cultivation using phytohormones and their synthetic analogues to regulate the genetic program of plant growth and development during ontogenesis, increase their yield... more
The hypothesis that physiologically activeconcentrations of salicylic acid (SA) and itsderivatives can confer stress tolerance in plants wasevaluated using bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) andtomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.). Plantsgrown... more
The purpose of our work was to study the stimulating effect of new synthetic plant growth regulator, created on the base of chemical low molecular weight heterocyclic compound, derivative of pyrimidine – the formulation Methyur... more
In our work the comparative analysis of plant growth stimulating activity of low molecular weight five and six-membered heterocyclic compounds derivatives of [1,3]oxazolo[5,4- d]pyrimidine and N-sulfonyl substituted of 1,3-oxazole... more
The brown planthopper (BPH) is one of the most serious insect pests of rice throughout Asia. In this study, we constructed a linkage map to determine the locus for BPH resistance gene, using an F2 population from a cross between a... more
The recent innovation strategy used in the modern agricultural biotechnology is an elaboration of new effective and ecologically safe plant growth regulating substances on the base of synthetic low molecular weight five and six-membered... more
The cytokinin-like activity of chemical low molecular weight heterocyclic compounds, derivatives of oxazolopyrimidine and oxazole was studied. The specific bioassay on cytokinin-like activity conducted on the cotyledons isolated from... more
Adventitious shoot regeneration from leaves of blackberry cultivar Čačanska Bestrna was examined using 30 different combinations of treatment. Young, fully expanded leaves taken from in vitro proliferating shoots were cultured on... more
