Phytol and Tocopherol Metabolism in Arabidopsis thaliana
(2015-12-04)
The ability of a plant to convert light energy into chemical energy relies on the integrity and functionality of the photosynthetic membranes of the chloroplasts. Chlorophyll is one of the key players in photosynthesis as ......
Der Ranunculus-auricomus-Komplex in Deutschland westlich des Rheins
(2016-01-05)
Der gegenwärtige Stand der Erforschung der Gold-Hahnenfuß-Flora (Ranunculus auricomus agg.) in Deutschland westlich des Rheins (mit Ausnahme des Saarlandes) wird dargestellt. Eine taxonomische und pflanzengeografische ...
Proteins under the control of phospholipase D in Arabidopsis thaliana
(2016-05-12)
The phosphoproteome of the pldα1-mutant lacks a protein that is abundantly expressed in the wild type and has been identified as the unknown protein At5g39570.1. The characterization of this protein in the context of ...
Arabidopsis thaliana aldehyde dehydrogenases ALDH3H1 and ALDH3I1: cysteine mutations, S-nitrosylation and esterase activity
(2016-04-20)
S-nitrosylation is a posttranslational modification that is known to affect many biochemical processes in plants. In the current study the ability of NO donors to S-nitrosylate aldehyde dehydrogenases ALDH3H1 and ALDH3I1 ......
Molecular systematics and evolution of the non-photosynthetic parasitic Cistanche (Orobanchaceae)
(2017-11-16)
The parasitc Orobanchaceae have been the focus of few phylogenetic and systematic studies. While previous studies targeted on the genera Pedicularis, Orobanche and Euphrasia, here the phylogenetic relationships, systematics ...
Climate- and Human-Induced Vegetation Changes in Northwestern Turkey and the Southern Levant since the Last Glacial
(2017-04-20)
Northwestern Turkey and the southern Levant are key regions for studying vegetation and climate developments during migration phases of modern humans and the origin and expansion of agriculture. Both regions have a long ...
Physiological and molecular studies of different aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) genes in response to high temperature and functional analyses of the ALDH7B4 promoter in Arabidopsis thaliana
(2017-04-06)
In this study, the function of aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) genes in response to heat stress alone and in combination with dehydration, salinity, or wounding stress was investigated using selected ALDH genes ...
Biogeomorphic dynamics in the Turtmann glacier forefield, Switzerland
(2017-05-19)
Worldwide, glacier retreat enlarges glacier foreland areas, which are characterized by pronounced geomorphic and ecologic dynamics. Feedbacks between these dynamics are believed to drive glacier foreland landscape development, ...
Systematics, Taxonomy, and Evolution of Urtica L. (Urticaceae)
(2017-04-25)
The systematics of Urtica have puzzled scientists for the past 200 years and no single comprehensive attempt at understanding infrageneric relationships has been published in the past, nor have species delimitations ...
Evaluating the phylogenetic structure and microstructural evolution of organellar markers from both compartments in the reconstruction of a carboniferous radiation (mosses)
(2017-09-12)
In the reconstruction of the plant tree of life, sequence data from the plastid genome is currently favored as it contains a mixture of coding and noncoding regions, spanning different patterns of substitution rates and ...
