Open AccessAn aeroponic culture system for the study of root herbivory on Arabidopsis thaliana
Plant defense against herbivory has been studied primarily in aerial tissues. However, complex defense mechanisms have evolved in all parts of the plant to combat herbivore attack and these mechanisms are like...

Potato Steroidal Glycoalkaloids: Biosynthesis and Genetic Manipulation
The potato steroidal glycoalkaloids (SGAs) are important components of plant resistance against pests and pathogens but can be toxic to humans at high levels. SGAs derive their toxicity from anticholinesterase...

The levels of two distinct species of phytochrome are regulated differently during germination in Avena sativa L.
The abundance and molecular mass of phytochrome in germinating embryos of A. sativa (oat) grown in light or darkness have been monitored using immunoblot and spectrophotometric assays. Immunoblot analysis shows t...
