Genotyping SNPs in lignin biosynthesis gene (CAD1) and transcription factors (MYB1 and MYB2) exhibits association with wood density in teak (Tectona grandis L.f.).

Background: Teak (Tectona grandis L.f.), an important source of tropical timber with immense economic value, is a highly outcrossing forest tree species.

Amplification, sequencing and characterization of pectin methyl esterase inhibitor 51 gene in L.f.

L.f. (Teak), a very important source of incomparable timber, withstands a wide range of tropical deciduous conditions.

Nigella sativa callus treated with sodium azide exhibit augmented antioxidant activity and DNA damage inhibition.

Nigella sativa L. (NS) is an herbaceous plant, possessing phytochemicals of therapeutic importance. Thymoquinone is one of the active phytochemicals of NS that confers noteworthy antioxidant properties.

Abiotic Stress and Reactive Oxygen Species: Generation, Signaling, and Defense Mechanisms.

Climate change is an invisible, silent killer with calamitous effects on living organisms. As the sessile organism, plants experience a diverse array of abiotic stresses during ontogenesis. The relentless climatic changes amplify the intensity and duration of stresses, making plants dwindle to survive.

Inorganic salts influence IAA ionization and adventitious rhizogenesis in Pongamia pinnata.

The basal cut end of coppice shoot cuttings of Pongamia pinnata was treated for 24 h with 0 (water treated control) or 5.0 mmol/L of KMnO4, KCI, and KH2PO4 or 2.5 mmol/L of K2HPO4 and K2SO4.
