Water deficit is a major factor limiting crop yield in rainfed areas. We hypothesized that under water deficit the decrease of photosynthetic production stimulates: carbohydrate remobilization from leaves, stems and roots to reproductive organs; and decreasing flowering intensity and pod development. The present work aims to study the effect of water deficit during bloom and grain pod-filling stages in two indeterminate soybean cultivar, Vtop and Nidera. The following physiological parameters were ...

The water availability at early phenological stages is critical for crop establishment and sugarcane varieties show differential performance under drought. Herein, we evaluated the relative importance of morphological and physiological plasticity of young sugarcane plants grown under water deficit, testing the hypothesis that high phenotypic plasticity is associated with drought tolerance. IACSP95-5000 is a high yielding genotype and IACSP94-2094 has good performance under water limiting environments. ...

Spraying sucrose inhibits photosynthesis by impairing Rubisco activity and stomatal conductance (gs), whereas increasing sink demand by partially darkening the plant stimulates sugarcane photosynthesis. We hypothesized that the stimulatory effect of darkness can offset the inhibitory effect of exogenous sucrose on photosynthesis. Source-sink relationship was perturbed in two sugarcane cultivars by imposing partial darkness, spraying a sucrose solution (50 mM) and their combination. Five days after ...

The influence of fruit loading on flowering and fruiting, CO2 assimilation, and non-structural carbohydrates (NSC) in citrus trees was evaluated in four-year-old ‘Valencia’ sweet orange grafted onto ‘Rangpur’ lime. One group of trees was completely de-fruited (DFT) on May 14 (autumn), whereas fruit were left on the remaining trees (FT). The seasonal variation in photosynthesis and stomatal conductance was unaffected by fruit loading, with the minimum diurnal-integrated CO2 assimilation (PNI) occurring ...

Low temperatures negatively impact the metabolism of orange trees, and the extent of damage can be influenced by the rootstock. We evaluated the effects of low nocturnal temperatures on Valencia orange scions grafted on Rangpur lime or Swingle citrumelo rootstocks. We exposed six-month-old plants to night temperatures of 20ºC and 8ºC under controlled conditions. After decreasing the temperature to 8ºC, there were decreases in leaf CO2 assimilation, stomatal conductance, mesophyll conductance and ...

SUMMARY This study was conducted to investigate the physiological response of sugarcane genotypes to drought and its consequence for stalk yield. Sugarcane genotypes IACSP94-2094, IACSP96-2042 and SP87-365 were subjected to water deficit during the initial growth phase by withholding water. Resistance and sensitivity patterns were defined by the impact of drought on the stalk yield and content of soluble solids in the stalk juice. IACSP94-2094 and SP87-365 were considered drought-resistant genotypes, ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of low air temperature during nocturnal (TN) and diurnal (TD) periods as well as the substrate temperature (TS) on photosynthesis of 'Valencia' orange tree grafted on Rangpur lime rootstock. The experiment was carried out in a growth chamber with seven-month-old plants. The plants were exposed to the following temperature regimes: low substrate temperature (LTS, with: TD = 28°C, TN = 20°C, TS = 10°C); low air temperature during night (LTN, with: TD = 28°C, TN = ...

Abstract The attraction of Africanized bees to soft drinks and perfumes was investigated. In the first experiment, the ability of bees to discriminate between two perfumes (Realm for Men and Realm for Women) was assessed. The results indicated that the scents could be used as conditioned stimuli. In the second experiment, bees were divided into individual groups and confined to small metal tubes. Groups were fed either Diet Pepsi, spring water (control), Diet Guaraná, Diet Coca-Cola, Coca-Cola, Sprite, ...

Lymphoid aggregates (LA) are a common finding in bone marrow biopsies but little is known about their clinical implications and biological significance. We found LA in 51/206 patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). There was no correlation with age, disease progression or overall survival. The group with LA had lower hemoglobin values (P=0.03), and was associated with an increase in reticulin fibres (P=0.01). Although they were more frequent in RAEB, this did not reach statistical significance. ...

Singlet molecular oxygen O2(1Δg) is a reactive oxygen species capable of damaging biological molecules and triggering oxidative stress. The quenching of this species by naturally occurring furans was measured using O2(1Δg) from two different sources: (1) the thermal decomposition of 1,4-dimethylnaphthalene endoperoxide (1,4-DMNO2); (2) tetraphenylporphyrin sulphonate photosensitization. Four furan diterpenes were isolated from alcoholic extracts of Sucupira branca (Pterodon sp., Leguminosae) seeds, ...

The generation of ROS (reactive oxygen species) in plant galls may induce the degradation of the membrane systems of a plant cell and increase the number of plastoglobules. This numerical increase has been related to the prevention of damage to the thylakoid systems, and to the maintenance of photosynthesis rates. To investigate this hypothesis in gall systems, a comparative study of the ultrastructure of chloroplasts in non-galled leaves and in leaf galls of A. australe and A. spruceanum was conducted. ...

Background: Despite recent advances in cancer therapy, the treatment of bone tumors remains a major challenge. A possible underlying hypothesis, limitation, and unmet need may be the inability of therapeutics to penetrate into dense bone mineral, which can lead to poor efficacy and high toxicity, due to drug uptake in healthy organs. The development of nanostructured formulations with high affinity for bone could be an interesting approach to overcome these challenges. Purpose: To develop a liposomal ...
