    Long-distance regulation of shoot gravitropism by Cyclophilin 1 in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) plants

    The phloem-mobile protein SlCyp1 traffics to distant parts of the shoot to regulate its gravitropic response. In addition, SlCyp1 targets specific cells in the root to promote lateral root development.

    The effects of temperature and drought on autumnal senescence and leaf shed in apple under warm, east mediterranean climate

    Autumnal senescence of apple in a warm climate corresponds to accumulated degree-days beneath 22 °C. Summer drought delays senescence and enables replenishment of carbohydrate reserves. Recover...

    Signaling and Phloem-Mobile Transcripts

    Numerous studies revealed that beside viral RNAs also plant endogenous RNAs are transported from source tissue towards apical tissues in plants. Surprisingly a high number of distinct transcripts including pro...

    Movement of protein and macromolecules between host plants and the parasitic weed Phelipanche aegyptiaca Pers.

    Little is known about the translocation of proteins and other macromolecules from a host plant to the parasitic weed Phelipanche spp. Long-distance movement of proteins between host and parasite was explored usin...

    Melon phloem-sap proteome: developmental control and response to viral infection

    In addition to small molecules such as sugars and amino acids, phloem sap contains macromolecules, including mRNA and proteins. It is generally assumed that all molecules in the phloem sap are on the move from...

    Specific role of LeMAN2 in the control of seed germination exposed by overexpression of the LeMAN3 gene in tomato plants

    Endo-β-mannanase is one of the key enzymes involved in the hydrolysis of the mannan-rich cell walls of tomato (Solanum lycopersicon) seeds. Two isoforms of endo-β-mannanase have been characterized in tomato seeds...

    Glyphosate inhibits the translocation of green fluorescent protein and sucrose from a transgenic tobacco host to Cuscuta campestris Yunk.

    The parasitic plant Cuscuta campestris is dependent on its host for water, assimilates and amino acids. It can be controlled by the herbicide glyphosate, which inhibits 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase...
