Abstract:
The epidermis from a range of species from the genus Allium was peeled from the base, middle, and tip of the adaxial and abaxial surfaces of leaf material. Epidermal peels were water mounted after being peeled using forceps, and photographed using Nomarski microscopy. The epidermis is composed of rows of cells which run parallel to one another, and to the long axis of the leaf. Guard cells are present on both surfaces of the leaf in most species, but some species lack guard cells on either the abaxial or adaxial surface. Guard cells are sunken to varying degrees in all species surveyed. Subsid

Abstract:
Plant-based defence mutualisms involve aspects of plant morphology that influence the performance of plant parasites, their natural enemies and trophic interactions. Leaf domatia, small indentations on the underside of leaves, can be structurally complex, and are often inhabited by potentially beneficial mites and other arthropods. Plant morphological traits such as domatia that enhance mutualistic relationships may result in increased plant growth rates, and reproductive success. New Zealand supports ~60 plant species that have domatia, the most speciose genus being Coprosma. The aim of this

Abstract:
Understanding the dynamics of leaf litter inputs in streams involves assessment of retention, spatial distribution and processing of leaf litter inputs. However, leaf litter dynamics in streams has been mostly studied by determining the controlling factors of leaf litter processing, ignoring if leaf litter inputs are retained within the streams, and how these inputs are spatially distributed within the streambed. Furthermore, leaf litter processing in streams is not an isolated process because it can be linked with the dynamics of solutes of these streams. In fact, leachates from leaf litter

Abstract:
INTRODUCTION The retina prefers to metabolize glucose through glycolysis rather than oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) to meet their energy demand even when oxygen is abundant, known as the “Warburg effect”, despite having abundant functional mitochondria. We created transgenic mice with selective knockdowns of key enzymes in glycolysis and OXPHOS including hexokinase (HK) 2, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) A and pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) E1α in rods to study the importance of glycolysis and OXPHOS in retinal metabolism and the role of metabolic derangement in the pathogenesis of retinal dise

A synopsis of the southern African members of the genera Dicoma Cass. and Macledium Cass. (family Asteraceae, subfamily Cichorioidiae, tribe Mutiseae, subtribe Gochnatiinae) is presented. The most recent monograph of Dicoma was done by Wilson (1923). It included 34 species, of which 17 are southern African, The southern African species were last treated by Harvey (1865). Traditionally Dicoma included 50 to 65 species, of which 23 occur in southern Africa.

Semi-arid environments are notable for the wide range of seasonal patterns of leaf display in the tree communities. The environmental cues of leaf out and leaf drop are not consistent across species, and are not always directly linked to water availability, indicating that some species might be particularly sens

Abstract:
TOOTH/MIR160A regulates leaf margin outgrowth in Arabidopsis thaliana Unlike animals, a striking aspect of the plant development is that they have evolved a flexible pattern of post embryonic development. This exposes them to the challenges of many biotic and abiotic signals throughout their life. So, plants have to evolve/regulate various mechanisms to modulate their growth and development for accomplishing a successful life cycle in the prevailing environmental conditions. Auxin is involved in the initiation of lateral organs at the meristem and serration development along the leaf margin

The tg/tgla mouse exhibits ataxia, movement disorders and memory impairment, suggesting that both the cerebellum and hippocampus are affected.

Tottering and leaner mutant mice carry mutations in the pore-forming subunit (1A) of P/Q-type (CaV 2.1) voltage-gated calcium ion (Ca2+) channels that result in reduced Ca2+ current density. Since Ca2+ influx via voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels regulates important Ca2+-dependent neuronal processes including neurotransmitter release and synaptogenesis, we assessed effects of these mutations on hippocampus volume, neuronal density, neuronal morphology of hippocampal pyramidal cells in adult (six-month-old) mice, and adult neurogenesis in three-week-old and six-month-old mice.
