Adaptation mechanisms in the evolution of moss defenses to microbes
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2017)
Bryophytes, including mosses, liverworts and hornworts are early land plants that have evolved key adaptation echanisms to cope with abiotic stresses and microorganisms. Microbial symbioses facilitated plant colonization ...
Light Regulation of Plant Defense
(Annual Reviews, 2014-04)
Precise allocation of limited resources between growth and defense is critical for plant survival. In shade-intolerant species, perception of competition signals by informational photoreceptors activates shade-avoidance ...
Intentional and unintentional selection during plant domestication: herbivore damage, plant defensive traits and nutritional quality of fruit and seed crops
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-05)
Greater susceptibility to herbivory can arise as an effect of crop domestication. One proposed explanation is that defenses decreased intentionally or unintentionally during the domestication process, but evidence for this ...
Induction of defensive response in Eucalyptus globulus plants and its persistence in vegetative propagation
(2013)
The expression of defensive compounds derived from secondary metabolism in plants of Eucalyptus globulus Labill, and the persistence of these in vegetative propagation was evaluated by gas chromatography with flame ionization ...
Solar UVB-inducible ethylene alone induced isoflavonoids in pods of field-grown soybean, an important defense against stink bugs
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020-10)
Solar UV-B radiation enhances constitutive and inducible plant defenses against herbivore insects. Although inducible defenses in leaves damaged by lepidotperan larvae and other chewing insects are well known, almost nothing ...
The receptor-like kinase SlSOBIR1 is differentially modulated by virus infection but its overexpression in tobacco has no significant impact on virus accumulation
(Springer, 2015-09-25)
The role of the tomato receptor-like kinase SlSOBIR1 in antiviral defense was investigated. SlSOBIR1 was transcriptionally modulated by unrelated viruses but its ectopic expression had no effect on virus accumulation. ...
Inter-regional variation on leaf surface defenses in native and non-native Centaurea solstitialis plants
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2015-07)
Plant chemical defenses can be qualitative (toxins) to face generalist herbivores and quantitative (digestibility reducers) to specialists. Trichomes can produce chemicals, but also acts as a quantitative defense and in ...
Soybean defense induction to Spodoptera cosmioides herbivory is dependent on plant genotype and leaf position
(2018-02-01)
Plants have evolved a diverse array of defensive mechanisms against biotic and abiotic stresses, which can be either constitutive or inducible. Variation in plant-intrinsic factors such as the genotype and the leaf position ...
