Leaf axil patterning occurs concomitantly with leaf development and takes place at the boundary zone which demarcates the initiating leaf primordium from the shoot apical meristem.Subsequent growth and differentiation result in establishment of the axillary meristem and abscission zone (AZ) along the proximal-distal axis of the leaf axil, yet the m

Considering the global health threat posed by kidney disease burden, a search for new nephroprotective drugs from our local flora could prove a powerful strategy to respond to this health threat.In this study we investigated the antihyperuricemic and nephroprotective potential of RA-3, a plant-derived lanosteryl magic pants stoko triterpene.The ant

Anecdotal evidence identified a change in the reaction of the resistant lentil cv Nipper to ascochyta blight in South Australia in 2010 and subsequent seasons, leading to infection.This study investigated field reactions of lentil cultivars against Ascochyta lentis and the pathogenic variability of the A.lentis population in southern Australia on c

Abstract Long-persistent luminescence (LPL) materials have applications from safety signage to bioimaging; however, existing organic LPL (OLPL) systems do not align with collirio drop set human scotopic vision, which is sensitive to blue light.We present a strategy to blueshift the emissions in binary OLPL systems by upconverting the charge-transfe
