chlorophyll b/glycine max

Chlorophyll degradation plays important roles in leaf senescence including regulation of degradation of chlorophyll-binding proteins. Although most genes encoding enzymes of the chlorophyll degradation pathway have been identified, the regulation of their activity has not been fully understood.

One month old soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) cv. 'Williams' plants were exposed to nitrogen dioxide (NO2 at 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, and 0.5 microl liter(-1) and carbon filtered air (control), 7 h per day for five days, under controlled environment. Data were collected on net photosynthetic rate (PN),

This study on the effect of genetically modified (GM) and non-GM canola on soybean was carried out for physiological and biochemical biosafety assessment of GM canola. Methanolic extracts of GM and non-GM canola were assessed on seed germination and growth of soybean (Glycine max L.) under

The P(700) chlorophyll alpha-protein was purified by preparative sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) gel electrophoresis from SDS-solubilized barley (Hordeum vulgare L., cv Himalaya) chloroplast membranes. After elution from the gel in the presence of 0.05 to 0.1% Triton X-100, the recovered protein had a

We conducted a preliminary investigation of the effects of visible light irradiation on plant extracts, and we observed a strong suppressive effect on interleukin (IL) 2 expression with the inhibition of c-Jun amino-terminal kinase (JNK) phosphorylation in Jurkat cells by visible light irradiation

Chlorophyll is a major component of chloroplasts and a better understanding of the genetic basis of chlorophyll in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] might contribute to improving photosynthetic capacity and yield in regions with adverse environmental conditions. A collection of 332 diverse soybean
