Tubular projections from plastids (stromules) were observed using a stroma-targeted green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion protein and a confocal laser scanning microscope. In tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) epidermal cells, stromules were observed at a high frequency. Some of them were long and

Since 1995, severe epidemics of cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) have occurred in select fields of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) and pepper (Capsicum annuum) in three counties in northern Florida. Yield losses greater than 50% have occurred in both crops. Baker and Zettler (1) identified the presence of

Commelina communis stomata closed within 1 h of transferring intact plants from 27 degrees C to 7 degrees C, whereas tobacco (Nicotiana rustica) stomata did not until the leaves wilted. Abscisic acid (ABA) did not mediate cold-induced C. communis stomatal closure: At low temperatures, bulk leaf ABA

Previous work has demonstrated that some endogenous plant gene promoters are active in selective companion cells of the phloem, depending on organ types and developmental stages. Here we report that the Commelina yellow mottle virus (CoYMV) promoter is active in the companion cells of leaves, stems

N-Acylethanolamines (NAEs) are endogenous lipids in plants produced from the phospholipid precursor, N-acylphosphatidylethanolamine, by phospholipase D (PLD). Here, we show that seven types of plant NAEs differing in acyl chain length and degree of unsaturation were potent inhibitors of the

Studies using stably transformed tobacco plants containing very low levels of PI-PLC in their guard cells show that this enzyme plays a role in the events associated with the inhibition of stomatal opening by ABA, but not in the cellular reactions that are responsible for ABA-induced stomatal

Commelina yellow mottle virus (CoYMV) is a double-stranded DNA virus that infects a monocot host. A promoter fragment isolated from CoYMV is a strong promoter when assayed after transient introduction into monocot and dicot suspension cells and is highly active in vascular cells of flowers, leaves,

Commelina Yellow Mottle Virus(CoYMV) is a double-stranded, circular DNA virus and its promoter could direct GUS gene specifically expressing in phloem tissue of transgenic tobacco plants. To determine the optimal promoter sequence for pholem-specific gene expression, CoYMV promoter was deleted from

Commelina yellow mottle virus (CoYMV) is a double-stranded DNA virus that infects the monocot Commelina diffusa. Although CoYMV and cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV; another double-stranded DNA virus) probably replicate by a similar mechanism, the particle morphology and host range of CoYMV place it

Guard cells of several species, but predominantly Commelina communis, were impaled by micropipette electrodes and potential differences measured that occurred between cell compartments and the flowing bathing medium. The wall developed a Donnan potential that was between -60 and -70 millivolt in 30

Ralstonia solanacearum (Smith) Yabuuchi et al. causes bacterial wilt worldwide on a wide range of plant species. In Mali, the disease is commonly found on potato (Solanum tuberosum L.), tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum var. esculentum L.), pepper (Capsicum annuum L.), eggplant (Solanum melongena L.),

High resolution chlorophyll a fluorescence imaging was used to compare the photosynthetic efficiency of PSII electron transport (estimated by Fq'/Fm') in guard cell chloroplasts and the underlying mesophyll in intact leaves of six different species: Commelina communis, Vicia faba, Amaranthus
