Air layers under water on the fern Salvinia: Stability and biomimetic applications
(2014-05-27)
Many plants and animals feature superhydrophobic surfaces capable of retaining a layer of air when submerged under water. The most persistent air layers can last for weeks and even month and are maintained by hairy surfaces ...
Identification and molecular characterisation of unknown genes involved in desiccation tolerance mechanisms in the resurrection plant Craterostigma plantagineum
(2014-11-06)
The mechanisms that enable vegetative desiccation tolerance in the resurrection plant Craterostigma plantagineum are not fully understood. Recently, transcriptome data from this plant were obtained thus providing ...
Untersuchungen zur Funktion der Annexine 1 bis 4 aus Arabidopsis mit Hilfe fluoreszierender Reporter
(2014-12-01)
In Pflanzen sind Antworten auf Stresssituationen sehr vielseitig und zum Teil artspezifisch. Um auf einen Reiz angemessen reagieren zu können, werden unter anderem Proteine benötigt, welche sich in unterschiedlichen ...
Characterization of Arabidopsis Myotubularins AtMTM1and AtMTM2: from Development to Stress Adaptation
(2014-11-18)
Myotubularins belong to a unique subgroup of a large family of dual-specificity serine–threonine phosphatase (DSP) that dephosphorylates serine / threonine as well as tyrosine residues. In Arabidopsis thaliana they are ......
Promoter regulation of the Craterostigma plantagineum Cp LEA-like 11-24 gene and functional characterization of its transcription factor (CpbZIP1)
(2014-08-26)
The resurrection plant Craterostigma plantagineum, a member of Linderniaceae family, is distributed in areas with variable water availability in Southern Africa. Two closely related species, L. brevidens which is endemic ......
