Flow cytometry (FCM) is currently the most widely‐used method to establish nuclear DNA
content in plants. Since simple, 1‐3‐parameter, flow cytometers, which are sufficient for most …

Flow cytometry (FCM) has been used for plant DNA content estimation since the 1980s;
however, presently, the number of laboratories equipped with flow cytometers has …

Endoreduplication is prevalent during plant growth and development, and is often correlated
with large cell and organ size. Despite its prevalence, the transcriptional regulatory …

Distinct plant seed/fruit structures evolved to support reproduction and dispersal in distinct
environments. Appropriate biomechanical properties and interactions of the various seed …

Abstract Background and Aims Plants regulate cellular oxygen partial pressures (p O2),
together with reduction/oxidation (redox) state in order to manage rapid developmental …

Seed aging occurs relatively fast in crops and it is a process that delays germination as well
as reducing its rate and even causing total loss of seed viability. Hence, it is a problem for …

In theory, any plant tissue providing intact nuclei in sufficient quantity is suitable for nuclear
DNA content estimation using flow cytometry (FCM). While this certainly opens a wide …

Fusarium wilt, one of the destructive diseases of cucumber can be effectively controlled by
using biocontrol agents such as Trichoderma harzianum. However, the mechanisms …

Considering that Asteraceae is an important plant family, we have identified a valuable
opportunity to study seed germination a wild species of this family, Trichocline catharinensis …

Common bean is a legume with high demand for human consumption and with high protein
content on its seeds. The seed filling stage is a crucial step to obtain high-quality seeds with …
