Doubled haploid (DH) technology based on in vivo haploid induction (HI), which is used to obtain true-breeding lines within a single generation, is a technique that significantly increases modern crop-breeding efficiency. Recently, dicot Arabidopsis...
The immersion of seeds in gibberellic acid solutions can promote dormancy breaking. Storage can be dynamic in seed longevity. The objective of this work was to evaluate different concentrations of gibberellic acid applied to seeds isolated from two s...
Pak choi needs to be exposed to low temperature (vernalized) before flowering will initiate. Early bolting caused by low temperature often occurs in spring and leads to significant economic losses. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to...
The potential of using pre-stress NaCl or CaCl2 applications to confer a cross-tolerance to a water deficit was evaluated in periwinkle. The plants initially received five applications of NaCl (0, 30 and 50 mM), or CaCl2 (15 and 25 mM) via irrigation...
Orostachys species have been recognized as medicinal herbs in East Asia. Although O. fimbriata is known as a traditional medicine, its antioxidant properties have not been investigated compared to other Orostachys species. In this study, we character...
Glucosinolates and their enzyme-degraded metabolites, such as isothiocyanates, have shown great potential to prevent and treat chronic-degenerative diseases. Broccoli sprouts (Brassica oleracea L., var. italica) are an excellent source of glucosinola...
Τhe aim of this study was to examine the potential of using biostimulants for the amelioration of deficit irrigation effects on field-grown lettuce plants growth parameters (cv. Doris (Romaine type) and cv. Manchester (Batavia type)). Therefore,...
Selenium (Se) is an essential micronutrient for humans, but most foods are Se deficient, mainly because of its low content in the soil. A Se-deficient diet results in increased susceptibility to cardiovascular disease, cancer, and hyperthyroidism. Ag...
Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) play essential roles in the process of stress response and plant growth and development. MAPK family genes have been identified in many plant species. In this study, 18 LsMAPK genes were identified in lettuce...
Leafy head formation is one of the most important characteristics of Chinese cabbage, and the process is regulated by a series of genes and environmental factors. In this study, a non-heading short leaf mutant slm was identified from an ethyl methane...
