Physiology and the (Neuro)biology of Plant Behavior: A …

About four centuries ago, Van Helmont concluded that plants grew by taking up water rather than eating soil, as the Inquisition insisted. But that simple experiment ushered in plant physiology as a scientific discipline, leading, in the 19th century, to the first genuine text on plant physiology by Sachs [].Although both zoologists and botanists use the word physiology, …

Plant Secondary Metabolites as Defenses, Regulators, and …

Despite the fact that definitions of secondary metabolites are inherently diffuse (Hartmann, 2007; Pichersky and Lewinsohn, 2011; Davies, 2013), the distinction between primary metabolites, secondary metabolites, and plant hormones has found its way into textbooks and shapes our thinking in plant biology to this day.An illustrative example is the field of plant–herbivore …

36: Transport in Plants

Most plants secure the water and minerals they need from their roots. The path taken is: soil→roots→stems→leaves soil→roots→stems→leaves. The minerals travel dissolved in the water (often accompanied by various organic molecules supplied by root cells), but less than 1% of the water reaching the leaves is used in photosynthesis and ...

Anaesthetics and plants: from sensory systems to cognition …

Schematic view of the root apex. The transition zone is the most sensitive root apex zone to anaesthetics which inhibit endocytic vesicle recycling and induce ROS imbalances (Yokawa et al. 2018, 2019).Cells in this bioelectrically active and oscillatory zone have high oxygen demand related to endocytic vesicle recycling (Baluška and Mancuso 2013) and are typical with high …

An insight on superoxide dismutase (SOD) from plants for …

Plant-derived SOD was administered as dietary intake to animal and human models under oxidative stress, resulting in an enhanced antioxidant circulation and reduced oxidative stress (Buettner, 2011). The study of human Mn-SOD on irradiated mice model demonstrated a resistance to radiation and its side effect in the mice model.

Molybdenum metabolism in plants and crosstalk to iron

Uptake, Transport, and Storage of Molybdate. Early in plant molybdenum research Kannan and Ramani (1978) described the active uptake of exogenously applied molybdate by roots and its transport to the shoot. However, molybdate levels reached a maximum in the shoot already 6 h after application, indicating that uptake of molybdate and sensing of intracellular …

Soybean | Description, Cultivation, Products, & Facts

In the United States the majority of soybean crops are genetically modified for resistance to the herbicide glyphosate.The soybean may be cultivated in most types of soil, but it thrives in warm, fertile, well-drained, sandy loam.The crop is planted after all danger of frost is past. Soybeans are usually harvested mechanically, after the leaves have fallen off the plant …

A different approach to the central utility plant

The plant should be modeled using 3D software in order to ensure full equipment coordination and that the maintenance clearances are achieved. 7. Sprinkler systems should be installed as a part of the factory fabrication process. 8. Fire alarm and conduits should be installed as part of the factory fabrication process.

How plants manage pathogen infection

Many foliar pathogens invade plants through stomata, pores in the epidermis of aerial tissues, which control gas exchange and water balance (Lin et al, 2022).Plants have evolved stomatal immunity that closes stomata upon pathogen infection via recognition of MAMPs, thereby restricting pathogen entry into leaf inner tissues (Melotto et al, 2006).In recent …
