[Translate to English:] New publication: Effiziente Nutzung von Wasser und Bor bei Raps (Pflanzenarzt)

Der Klimawandel in Europa bringt neben einer Erwärmung auch das häufigere Auftreten von zum Teil kontrastierenden Wetterextremen innerhalb einer einzigen Wachstumsperiode mit sich. Die Erfahrungen der letzten Jahre bestätigen dies: Auf niederschlagsreiche Winter folgen anhaltende Trockenperioden im…

[Translate to English:] New publication: Permeation mechanisms of hydrogen peroxide and water through Plasma Membrane Intrinsic Protein aquaporins

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) transport by aquaporins (AQP) is a critical feature for cellular redox signaling. However, the H2O2 permeation mechanism through these channels remains poorly understood. Through functional assays, two Plasma membrane Intrinsic Protein (PIP) AQP from Medicago truncatula,…

Bormangel: Raps reagiert wie bei Infektionen und Schädlingsbefall

Bormangel wirkt sich verheerend auf Raps und verwandte Pflanzen aus. Dennoch ist bisher wenig über die zugrundeliegenden genetischen Mechanismen bekannt. Eine Studie zeigt, dass die Reaktion auf anhaltenden oder akuten kurzzeitigen Bormangel ähnlich zu der auf Schädlinge und Infektionen ist. Die…

New publication: Plant Age and Soil Texture Rather Than the Presence of Root Hairs Cause Differences in Maize Resource Allocation and Root Gene Expression in the Field

Abstract: Understanding the biological roles of root hairs is key to projecting their contributions to plant growth and to assess their relevance for plant breeding. The objective of this study was to assess the importance of root hairs for maize nutrition, carbon allocation and root gene expression…
