Physiological Limitations and the Genetic Improvement of Symbiotic Nitrogen Fixation
Rhizobium species involved in root nodule formation on legume plants are one of the best known groups of micro organisms. The Rhizobium legume symbiosis continues to be of …
Systems for Cytogenetic Analysis in Vicia Faba L.
Unlike the situation in the major cereals, the yields of Vicia faba have not been markedly increased during the last half century. There is no single cause for this but among those …
Current Options for Cereal Improvement
China was the first country to use cytoplasmic male sterility to develop hybrid rice for commercial use in 1973. In 1986 more than 8 million hectares of hybrid rice were planted in …
Mechanisms of Resistance to Plant Diseases
Plant resistance to pathogens is one of the most important strategies of disease control. Knowledge of resistance mechanisms, and of how to exploit them, has made a significant …
Hormonal Regulation of Plant Growth and Development
Plant hormone research is the favorite topic of physiologists. Past three decades have witnessed that this subject has received much attention. The inquisitive nature of human mind …
Biological Control of Photosynthesis
All measurements of intact leaf 02 sensitivity can be explained by the oxygenation model for glycolate formation and glycolate metabolism by established pathways. Predicting the …
