The roles of brassinosteroids (BRs) in vasculature development have been implicated based on an analysis of Arabidopsis BR mutants and suspension cells of Zinnia elegans. However, the effects of BRs in vascular development of a woody species have not been demonstrated. In this study, 24-epi
Seedlings of yellow-poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera L.) and white oak (Quercus alba L.) were exposed continuously to one of three CO(2) concentrations in open-top chambers under field conditions and evaluated after 24 weeks with respect to carbon exchange rates (CER), chlorophyll (Chl) content, and
Predicted increases in the frequency and severity of droughts have led to a renewed focus on how plants physiologically adjust to low water availability. A popular framework for understanding plant responses to drought characterizes species along a spectrum from isohydry to anisohydry based on their
A novel two-stage, whole organism fungal biopulping method was examined for increasing the yield of enzymatic hydrolysis of wood into soluble glucose. Liriodendron tulipifera wood chips (1g) were exposed to liquid culture suspensions of white rot (Ceriporiopsis subvermispora) or brown rot (Postia
Multiple TREGRO simulations were conducted with meteorological data files containing different growing season peak ozone (O(3)) episodes at O(3) exposures of 1.0 and 2.0 x ambient O(3) to assess the relationship between O(3) response and the phenology of mature yellow poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera
BACKGROUND
Understanding the dynamics of the microbial communities that, along with their secreted enzymes, are involved in the natural process of biomass composting may hold the key to breaking the major bottleneck in biomass-to-biofuels conversion technology, which is the still-costly
