Immunity in plants and animals: common ends through different means using similar tools
(Elsevier B.V., 2014)
Caracterização biológica e fisiológica de buva (Conyza bonariensis L.) resistente ao herbicida glyphosate
(Universidade Federal de Santa MariaBRAgronomiaUFSMPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Agronomia - Agricultura e Ambiente, 2014-02-07)
Conyza bonariensis, popularly known as fleabane, is a major weed of soybean crop in Southern Brazil, due to its evolution as resistant to glyphosate herbicide, high adaptability to production systems and high production ...
Evaluating categories of resistance in soybean genotypes from the United States and Brazil to Aphis glycines (Hemiptera: Aphididae)
(Florida Entomological Soc, 2016-09-01)
Aphis glycines Matsumura (Hemiptera: Aphididae), the soybean aphid, has become an important pest of soybeans, leading to significant yield losses in the United States. Host plant resistance is a viable alternative for ...
A unified approach to the estimation and interpretation of resistance costs in plants
(Nature Publishing Group, 2011-11)
Plants exhibit a number of adaptive defence traits that endow resistance to past and current abiotic and biotic stresses. It is generally accepted that these adaptations will incur a cost when plants are not challenged by ...
Foliar resistance to simulated extreme temperature events in contrasting plant functional and chorological types
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2002-11)
We analysed leaf resistance of 41 Angiosperms belonging to a wide range of plant functional (PFTs) and chorological types (PCTs) to simulated frost and high-temperature extreme events (EE). Leaf resistance was estimated ...
Cold resistance in plants: A mystery unresolved
(Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso, 2009)
Assessment of correlational selection on tolerance and resistance traits in a host plant-parasitic plant interaction
(Springer, 2001)
Resistance and tolerance are considered to be different plant strategies against disease. While resistance traits prevent hosts becoming parasitized or reduce the extent of parasitism, tolerance traits reduce the fitness-impact ...
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 ...
Plant growth and genetic polymorphism in glyphosate-resistant sourgrass (Digitaria insularis L. Fedde)
(2016-01-01)
Weed herbicide resistance has been a challenge in agriculture. The objective of this study was to detect sourgrass (Digitaria insularis (L.) Fedde) glyphosate-resistant plants and to evaluate the growth and polymorphism ...
