Yield evaluation of a gene for boron tolerance using backcross-derived lines
Wheat varieties show differential responses to high concentrations of soil boron and genetic studies have shown a single major gene, Bo1, is responsible for the higher level of boron tolerance found in varieties ...

Effects of copper deficiency on root nodules of subterranean clover
Effects of copper deficiency on the development of subterranean clover root nodules were studied. These included a depression of the bacteroid content, an accumulation of starch in the invaded cells and a redu...
