Actin filaments are among the major components of the cytoskeleton, and participate in various cellular dynamic processes. However, conflicting results had been obtained on the localization of actin filaments on the mitotic apparatus and their participation in the process of
A recent study has demonstrated that phototropins act as blue light receptors in stomatal guard cells. However, the downstream components responsible for phototropin signaling are largely unknown. In this study, using a yeast two-hybrid system, we isolated a Vicia faba
We prepared Au/gamma-Fe2O3 composite nanoparticles by sonochemically reducing Au(III) ions employing no stabilizer in the aqueous solution to form stable Au nanoparticles and allowing them to attach onto the surface of gamma-Fe2O3 particles with an average size of 21 nm.

Pesticide losses to water can present problems for environmental management, particularly in catchments where surface waters are abstracted for drinking water supply. The relative role of different transfer pathways (spray drift, spills, overland flow and leaching from soils) is often
Previous studies showed that sub-micromolar concentrations of the microtubule-targeting herbicide propyzamide cause a right-handed helical arrangement of cortical microtubule arrays and left-handed twisting in elongating Arabidopsis epidermal cells. When seedlings were grown in the presence of 1-2 microM propyzamide or
