Arabidopsis VARIEGATED 3 encodes a chloroplast-targeted, zinc-finger protein required for chloroplast and palisade cell development (2004)

Næsted, Henrik, Holm, Agnethe, Jenkins, Tom, Nielsen, H. Bjørn, Harris, Cassandra A., Beale, Michael H., ...

The stable, recessive Arabidopsis variegated 3 (var3) mutant exhibits a variegated phenotype due to somatic areas lacking or containing developmentally retarded chloroplasts and greatly reduced...

Elemental Sulfur and Thiol Accumulation in Tomato and Defense against a Fungal Vascular Pathogen1

Williams, Jane S., Hall, Sharon A., Hawkesford, Malcolm J., Beale, Michael H., Cooper, Richard M.

The occurrence of fungicidal, elemental S is well documented in certain specialized prokaryotes, but has rarely been detected in eukaryotes. Elemental S was first identified in this laboratory as a...

Analysis of Detergent-Resistant Membranes in Arabidopsis. Evidence for Plasma Membrane Lipid Rafts1

Borner, Georg H.H., Sherrier, D. Janine, Weimar, Thilo, Michaelson, Louise V., Hawkins, Nathan D., MacAskill, Andrew, ...

The trafficking and function of cell surface proteins in eukaryotic cells may require association with detergent-resistant sphingolipid- and sterol-rich membrane domains. The aim of this work was to...

Monoclonal Antibodies to 13-Deoxy-Gibberellins

Knox, J. Paul, Beale, Michael H., Butcher, Geoffrey W., MacMillan, Jake

The production and characterization of two high affinity rat monoclonal antibodies to 13-deoxy-gibberellins is described. Hybrid myelomas were derived from rats immunized with an immunogenic keyhole...

The Strigolactone Germination Stimulants of the Plant-Parasitic Striga and Orobanche spp. Are Derived from the Carotenoid Pathway1

Matusova, Radoslava, Rani, Kumkum, Verstappen, Francel W.A., Franssen, Maurice C.R., Beale, Michael H., Bouwmeester, Harro J.

The seeds of parasitic plants of the genera Striga and Orobanche will only germinate after induction by a chemical signal exuded from the roots of their host. Up to now, several of these germination...

Aphid alarm pheromone produced by transgenic plants affects aphid and parasitoid behavior

Beale, Michael H., Birkett, Michael A., Bruce, Toby J. A., Chamberlain, Keith, Field, Linda M., Huttly, Alison K., ...

The alarm pheromone for many species of aphids, which causes dispersion in response to attack by predators or parasitoids, consists of the sesquiterpene (E)-β-farnesene (Eβf). We used high levels...

Co-ordinated expression of amino acid metabolism in response to N and S deficiency during wheat grain filling

Howarth, Jonathan R., Parmar, Saroj, Jones, Janina, Shepherd, Caroline E., Corol, Delia-Irina, Galster, Aimee M., ...

Increasing demands for productivity together with environmental concerns about fertilizer use dictate that the future sustainability of agricultural systems will depend on improving fertilizer use...
