Transcription factors play a key role to enable plants to cope with abiotic stresses. DREB2 regulates the expression of several stress-inducible genes and constitutes major hubs in the water stress signalling webs. We cloned and characterized a novel gene encoding the FpDREB2A transcription factor
Recent increases in atmospheric CO 2 concentration have affected the growth and physiology of plants. In this study, plants were grown with 0.5% CO 2 for 0, 3, and 6 days. The anatomy, fluorescence intensity of H2O2, respiration rate, and antioxidant activities of the mitochondria were analyzed in
Few studies have explored the long-term effects of elevated atmospheric CO2 combined with lead (Pb) contamination on plants. The objective of this study was to examine the effects of 3 years of elevated CO2 (700 ± 23 μmol mol-1) on Pb accumulation and plant defenses in leaves of Robiniapseudoacacia
Short-term exposure to elevated CO2 increases cadmium (Cd) uptake in some plant species (wheat, poplars, and willows), which triggers an increase in antioxidative system activity to deal with additional reactive oxygen species that are generated. Here, we examined leaf defenses in Robinia
This study aimed to identify drought-mediated differences in amino nitrogen (N) composition and content of xylem and phloem in trees having different symbiotic N(2)-fixing bacteria. Under controlled water availability, 1-year-old seedlings of Robiniapseudoacacia (nodules with Rhizobium), Hippophae
This research was carried out on plants Taraxacum officinale, Plantago lanceolata, Betula pendula and Robiniapseudoacacia growing in urban biotopes with different levels of heavy metal contamination in the city of Dąbrowa Górnicza (southern Poland). Based on the pollution index, the highest heavy
The purpose of this study was the physicochemical characterization and classification of Italian honey from Marche Region with a chemometric approach. A total of 135 honeys of different botanical origins [acacia (Robiniapseudoacacia L.), chestnut (Castanea sativa), coriander (Coriandrum sativum
