Development Of Vascular Connections Between Lateral Buds And Main Stem In Some Decapitated Plants, Syed Mushtaq Husain, Albert J. Linck
Development Of Vascular Connections Between Lateral Buds And Main Stem In Some Decapitated Plants, Syed Mushtaq Husain, Albert J. Linck
Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science
After decapitation of pea plants, with resultant growth of lateral buds, the thickness of vascular tissue appeared to be correlated with the growth rate of buds. Basal lateral shoots had better developed vascular strands than buds on upper parts of the plants. IAA application retarded growth of the lateral buds and inhibited their vascular connections, but all lateral buds eventually grew in spite of the IAA application.
A Disc Electrophoretic Procedure For Separating Proteins Of Marchantia Polymorpha: Esterases., Jerome Anaya, Donald J. Kraft
A Disc Electrophoretic Procedure For Separating Proteins Of Marchantia Polymorpha: Esterases., Jerome Anaya, Donald J. Kraft
Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science
Extracts from Marchanlia polymorpha were used in the development of a disc electrophoretic procedure for the separation of proteins. Dialyzed and fresh extracts were found to produce best resolution when electrophoresed in Tris-Glycine buffer (pH 8.3) and 50 millamps current for 45-60 minutes. The esterase enzyme system was used as an indication of separation. Significantly, 5 bands were detected in induced thalli attesting to the sensitivity and application of this method to developmental studies.
Estimating Surface Area Of Soybean Root Systems, John B. Carlson
Estimating Surface Area Of Soybean Root Systems, John B. Carlson
Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science
A procedure for estimating the total root length, root surface, and root hair surface is described for greenhouse-grown soybeans. Data are presented on the extent of the root systems of 3-week and 14-week old soybeans. The possibility of correlating data from greenhouse-grown soybeans with that of field-grown soybeans as a method to make some predictions on extent of the root systems of field-grown soybeans is suggested.
