Subject:
DNA; barley; cytogenetic analysis; fish; fluorescence; genes; grasses; haploidy; meiosis; microscopy; mitosis; reciprocal translocation; rice; rye; sequence analysis; tetraploidy; trisomics; wheat
Abstract:
... Although microscopy and genetics were still in their infancy, there are cytological results produced a hundred years ago that are still relevant today. Since the 1920s, rye has been a subject of chromosome research. It started by plotting its mitotic and meiotic chromosomes to determine genome size. After controversial evidence, it became clear that the base number is n = 7. However, structural di ...

Subject:
abscisic acid; cherries; fruit trees; heat; motivation; ontogeny; orchards; phenology; plant development; risk
Abstract:
... Models used to predict the onset of fruit tree blossom under changed climate conditions should be physiologically based as much as possible. Pure optimized phenology models carry the risk of unrealistic predictions due to a misinterpretation of metabolic processes. This was the motivation determining the relevant phases for chill and heat accumulation, which induces cherry blossom (cv. Summit). In ...
