A major challenge to scaling up the use of native species in landscaping is providing ornamental plants that are both ecologically functional and economically viable. Depending on ecological and economic constraints, accelerated breeding approaches could be applied to ornamental trait development in native...
Azaleas are flowering bushes that grow in well-draining and acidic soil. Where you plant them next to ninebarks depends on the size of both bushes. I recommend growing a small azalea variety so that it will not overshadow the ninebark, especially since the azaleas have showier flowers. Bot...
Ladder zombie- This zombie will place a ladder down on the first plant he meets allowing zombies to simple climb over that plant. Bad if he puts one on a Tall-nut. Magnet-shrooms will take his ladder away, and cherry bombs will dislodge ladders that he managed to place. Catapult Zombie-...
The root:shoot ratio has long been known to be enhanced in plants under drought stress. Here we discovered that osmotic stress enhances long-distance sucrose transport to increase the root:shoot ratio in an abscisic-acid-dependent manner. The Arabidopsis
At first glance it might be thought that a drought tolerant garden limits the garden to a "desert" look. But there are so many plants well adapted to our climate that almost any garden style can be created, maybe with the exceptions of tropical rain forest but even that look can be had...
These plants are commonly found during spring. Daffodils contain lycorine that can cause dangerous arrhythmias from cardiac changes. One of the most common part that causes daffodil poisoning to dogs are the bulbs if ingested because they contain the most potent toxin. Also, the dust from the bul...
However, it is certain that the results will not be good for the already stressed environments that many species of marine life call home.When exposed to the oil and the chemicals used to clean up the run-off, the sea plants themselves are directly affected. But in addition, the marine ...
Our results suggest that co-expression of genes for UDP-GalNAc polypeptide:N-acetyl-α-galactosaminyltransferase, UDP-GlcNAc 4-epimerase, and UDP-GalNAc transporter are required to achieve efficient plant-based production of GalNAc-glycosylated proteins....
