Many plants accumulate organic osmolytes in response to the imposition of environmental stresses that cause cellular dehydration. Although an adaptive role for these compounds in mediating osmotic… Expand
Plant tissue culture has become one of the fundamental tools of plant science research. It is extensively employed in the production, conservation and improvement of plant resources. The presence of… Expand
A causal relationship between increased proline synthesis and plant tolerance of hyperosmotic stresses has been demonstrated. Nonetheless, the molecular basis of this effect is not yet established.… Expand
A highly active, heat stable, long lasting compound, 3- methyl-2 H -furo[2,3- c ]pyran-2-one (1), that stimulates seed germination was isolated from plant-derived smoke water using bioactivity-guided… Expand
Two seaweed concentrates were made from the kelps Ecklonia maxima and Macrocystis pyrifera using a cell burst method. Cytokinin- and auxin-like activities were measured using the soybean callus and… Expand
Abstract Various experiments were conducted to characterize and control factors affecting shoot-tip necrosis (STN) in Harpagophytum procumbens . Higher cytokinin concentrations increased the… Expand
The seaweed extract Kelpak® made from the kelp Ecklonia maxima is registered as a biostimulant for use in agriculture. It elicits many beneficial responses including improved root and shoot growth,… Expand
Plant tissue culture plays an important role in the production and conservation of plant species. Its application, however, is hindered by some growth abnormalities such as shoot-tip necrosis (STN)… Expand
The effect of the cytokinins mT (meta-topolin), mTR (meta-topolin riboside), MemT (meta-methoxy topolin) and MemTR (meta-methoxy topolin riboside) on micropropagation of banana cultivars ‘Williams’… Expand
We tested the applicability of the recently identified major germination cue from smoke (a butenolide 3-methyl-2Hfuro[2,3-c]pyran-2-one) on 18 weed species from non-fire prone environments. For the… Expand
