Patterns of species diversity and soil nutrients along a chronosequence of vegetation recovery in Hainan Island, South China
Understanding the pattern of species diversity and soil factors can enhance our knowledge of the mechanism of vegetation recovery, however, there is still a gap in the knowledge of succession rate and trend fo...

Precise identification of two wheat–Thinopyrum intermedium substitutions reveals the compensation and rearrangement between wheat and Thinopyrum chromosomes
Two wheat–Thinopyrum substitution lines X479 and X482 selected from the progenies of wheat “Mianyang26 (MY26)” × wheat–Thinopyrum intermedium ssp. trichophorum partial amphiploid were characterized by seed storag...

Construction of the Leaf Senescence Database and Functional Assessment of Senescence-Associated Genes
Leaf senescence is the last phase of plant development and a highly coordinated process regulated by a large number of senescence-associated genes (SAGs). By broad literature survey, we constructed a leaf sene...

Ethylene Treatment in Studying Leaf Senescence in Arabidopsis
Plant leaf senescence is the final process of leaf development that involves the mobilization of nutrients from old leaves to newly growing tissues. Leaf senescence involves a coordinated action at the cellula...

Open AccessLeaf senescence: progression, regulation, and application
Leaf senescence, the last stage of leaf development, is a type of postmitotic senescence and is characterized by the functional transition from nutrient assimilation to nutrient remobilization which is essenti...

Putative role of uncoupling proteins in mitochondria-nucleus communications and DNA damage response
Mitochondria-nucleus communications and DNA damage response (DDR) play roles in cellular stress and closely associate with a range of diseases. Mitochondrial uncoupling proteins (UCPs) are capable of uncouplin...
