A proteomics study of the mung bean epicotyl regulated by brassinosteroids under conditions of chilling stress
Mung bean CYP90A2 is a putative brassinosteroid (BR) synthetic gene that shares 77% identity with the Arabidopsis CPD gene. It was strongly suppressed by chilling stress. This implies that exogenous treatment wit...

Chilling stress suppresses chloroplast development and nuclear gene expression in leaves of mung bean seedlings
Etiolated leaves of 28°C-dark-grown mung bean (Vigna radiata L. cv. 2937) seedlings fail to turn green after being shifted to a light and cold environment. At the visible phenotypic level, incapability of leaf gr...

Characterization of the genomic structures and selective expression profiles of nine class I small heat shock protein genes clustered on two chromosomes in rice (Oryza sativa L.)
The cytosolic class I small heat shock proteins (sHSP-CI) represent the most abundant sHSP in plants. Here, we report the characterization and the expression profile of nine members of the sHSP-CI gene family ...

Allelopathic Potential of Macaranga tanarius (L.) Muell.–Arg.
Macaranga tanarius is widely distributed in the abandoned lowlands of Taiwan where substantial amounts of leaves accumulate on the ground. A unique pattern of weed exclusion underneath trees is often found and t...

Wound-response regulation of the sweet potato sporamin gene promoter region
Sporamin, a tuberous storage protein of sweet potato, was systemically expressed in leaves and stems by wound stimulation. In an effort to demonstrate the regulatory mechanism of wound response on the sporamin ge...

Functional activity of sporamin from sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas Lam.): a tuber storage protein with trypsin inhibitory activity
Sporamin accounts for about 60% to 80% of total soluble protein in sweet potato tubers, and the predicted protein sequence of sporamin shares significant amino acid sequence identity with some Kunitz-type tryp...

Characterization of the replicon of plasmid pSW500 ofErwinia stewartii
A 1.6-kb DNA region required for the replication of pSW500 fromErwinia stewartii SW2 has been identified. DNA sequencing analysis revealed that this DNA fragment consists of a DnaA box, seven 16-bp direct repeats...

Class I low molecular weight heat shock proteins in plants: immunological study and thermoprotection against heat denaturation of soluble proteins
Antibodies prepared against two major polypeptides of the 15- to 18-kD class of soybean heat shock proteins (HSPs) individually reacted with its antigen and cross-reacted with 12 other 15- to 18-Kd HSPs. We al...

Observations of soybean root meristematic cells in response to heat shock
Soybean seedlings (Glycine max) were incubated in narrow temperature regimes to study the effects of heat shock on cell structures. The incubation temperatures used were as follows: 1. 28 °C (2h); 2. 40 °C (2h); ...
