ROOT SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE ANALYSIS IN MESEMBRYANTHEMUM CRYSTALLINUM (ICE PLANT) SEEDLINGS REVEALS CHARACTERISTIC ROOT HALOTROPIC RESPONSE

Root system architecture analysis in Mesembryanthemum crystallinum (ice plant) seedlings reveals characteristic root halotropic response

One of the major environmental stress factors that affect root growth is salinity.Arabidopsis thaliana, a glycophyte, shows halotropism, whereby it alters the direction of root growth in a non-gravitropic pattern Field Trousers to evade high soil salinity.Asymmetric auxin distribution regulated by the relocation of auxin-efflux copyright proteins i

Impact of Diabetes on Cardiovascular Disease: An Update

Cardiovascular diseases are the most prevalent cause of morbidity and mortality among patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes.The proposed mechanisms that can link accelerated atherosclerosis and increased cardiovascular risk in this population are poorly understood.It has been suggested that an association between hyperglycemia and intracellular m

Five-day planetary waves in the middle atmosphere from Odin satellite data and ground-based instruments in Northern Hemisphere summer 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2007

A number of studies have shown that 5-day planetary waves modulate noctilucent clouds and the closely related Polar Mesosphere Summer Echoes (PMSE) at the summer mesopause.Summer stratospheric winds should inhibit wave propagation through the stratosphere and, although some numerical models (Geisler and Dickinson, 1976) do show a possibility for up

An inclusive taxonomy of behavioral biases

This paper overviews the theoretical and empirical research on behavioral biases and their influence in 503 the literature.To provide a systematic exposition, we present a unified framework that takes the reader through an original taxonomy, based on the reviews of relevant authors in the field.In particular, we establish three broad categories tha
