Cold Hardiness of Apple and Changes in Dehydrin Composition
Journal Title: Журнал ÑтреÑÑ-физиологии и биохимии - Year 2014, Vol 10, Issue 2
Abstract
The work was aimed to study the degree of wood damage through artificial freezing and dehydrin changes in apple bark. The relation between apple tree cold hardiness and dehydrin accumulation and degradation rate was established.

Comparative Morpho-Biochemical Responses of Wheat Cultivars Sensitive and Tolerant to Water Stress
Water stress is likely the most important factor that adversely affects plant growth and development. In this study two wheat cultivars Gemmieza-7 (sensitive) and Sahel-1 (tolerant) were subjected to water stress and com...
Phytostabilization Potential of Yard long bean in Removing Cadmium from Soil
The effect of cadmium (Cd) on growth, physiology, distribution and tolerance was examined in root, shoot and leaves of yard-long bean (Vigna unguiculata subsp. sesquipedalis L.). The seeds were grown in pot culture under...
Absorption of Power Plants СО[sub]2[/sub] Emissions by Coniferous Tree Stands
The article reviews the ability of coniferous (common pine, siberian larch and siberian spruce) stands growing in 9 municipal districts of the Irkutsk region to absorb СО[sub]2[/sub] technogenic emission of heat power pl...
Changes of body mass and thermogenesis in Apodemus chevrieri during cold exposure and rewarming
Environmental cues, such as temperature, play important roles in the regulation of physiology and behavior in small mammals. The aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that ambient temperature was a cue to i...
Differential responses of seven contrasting species to high light using pigment and chlorophyll a fluorescence
High light intensity may induce severe photodamage to chloroplast and consequently cause decreases in the yield capacity of plants and destruction of pigments, causing an overall yellowing of the foliage. Thus, study rel...
