Responses of photosynthesis, dry mass and carbon isotope discrimination in winter wheat to different irrigation depths
In order to test the effects of irrigation depth on winter wheat photosynthesis, four treatments were applied in a field experiment using PVC growth tubes (identical amounts of water were applied on the land s...

Open AccessQTL for Sensitivity of Seedling Height to Exogenous GA3 and Their Effects on Adult Plant Height in Common Wheat
Plants with deficiency in Gibberellins (GAs) biosynthesis pathway are sensitive to exogenous GA3, while those with deficiency in GAs signaling pathway are insensitive to exogenous GA3. Thus, exogenous GA3 test...

Open AccessMechanical stimulation orchestrates the osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow stromal cells by regulating HDAC1
Mechanical stimulation and histone deacetylases (HDACs) have essential roles in regulating the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) and bone formation. However, little is known regar...

Significance of mesophyll conductance for photosynthetic capacity and water-use efficiency in response to alkaline stress in Populus cathayana seedlings
Cuttings of Populus cathayana were exposed to three different alkaline regimes (0, 75, and 150 mM Na2CO3) in a semicontrolled environment. The net photosynthesis rate (P N), mesophyll conductance ...

The (TTTA) n polymorphism in intron 4 of CYP19 and the polycystic ovary syndrome risk in a Chinese population
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a heterogeneous disease with a strong genetic origin, but the specific determinants are still unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between the (TTT...

BMP2Gene Therapy on the Repair of Bone Defects of Aged Rats
Age-related decline in the number of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and their reduced capability to differentiate osteogenically, along with diminished availability of growth factors, may be major factors accou...

Repairing of goat Tibial Bone Defects with BMP-2 Gene–Modified Tissue-Engineered Bone
Bone defects larger than a critical size are major challenges in orthopedic medicine. We combined tissue-engineered bone and gene therapy to provide osteoprogenitor cells, osteoinductive factors, and osteocond...

Effect of plant types on release of mineral potassium from gneiss
The ability of plant types to release mineral K from little weathered gneiss for a mixture of particle size fractions of less than 10 mm, as well as for two separated size fractions (2 mm<D<5 mm, and 1 mm <D<2...

Release of potassium from K-bearing minerals: Effect of plant roots under P deficiency
Pot experiments were conducted, with ryegrass (Lolium perenneL.) maize (Zea mays L ND60) and pak-choi (Brassica campestrisL. ssp.chinensis (L.) Mokina. var. cammunis Tsen et Lee, cv. Wuyueman), to investigate pla...

β-Glucuronidase gene and green fluorescent protein gene expression in de-exined pollen of Nicotiana tabacum by microprojectile bombardment
Gene constructs containing the β-glucuronidase (GUS) gene or green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene under the control of pollen-specific promoter Zm13-260 from maize were introduced by particle bombardment into de...

The Roles of Anabaena Azollae in Anabaena-Azolla Association
The roles of Anabaena in the symbiosis were studied by using Azolla strains with heterologous Anabaena azollae or without Anabaena. As a symbiont, Anabaena has a strong effect on the performances of Azolla either...
