Ethylene is an important plant gas hormone, and the amino acid Glu is emerging as a messenger molecule in plants. To evaluate the role of ethylene and Glu in seed germination and radicle growth under salt stress, effects of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic

The ability of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase-containing plant growth-promoting bacterial (PGPB) endophytes Pseudomonas fluorescens YsS6 and Pseudomonas migulae 8R6, their ACC deaminase minus mutants and the rhizospheric plant growth-promoting bacterium Pseudomonas putida UW4 to delay the senescence of mini carnation cut

Cystathionine beta-lyase (CBL) catalyzes the hydrolysis of L-cystathionine (L-Cth) to produce L-homocysteine, pyruvate, and ammonia. A series of active-site mutants of Escherichia coli CBL (eCBL) was constructed to investigate the roles of residues R58, R59, D116, W340, and R372 in

Strigolactones (SLs) or derivatives thereof have been identified as phytohormones, and shown to act as long-distance shoot-branching inhibitors. In Arabidopsis roots, SLs have been suggested to have a positive effect on root-hair (RH) elongation, mediated via the MAX2 F-box. Two
Understanding the regulation of key genes involved in plant iron acquisition is of crucial importance for breeding of micronutrient-enriched crops. The basic helix-loop-helix protein FER-LIKE FE DEFICIENCY-INDUCED TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR (FIT), a central regulator of Fe acquisition in roots, is regulated
