Introducing bioactive molecules into plants helps establish their roles in plant growth and development. Here we describe a simple and effective petiole-feeding protocol to introduce aqueous solutions ...

The epinastic growth responses of petioles to auxin and ethylene were quantified in two developmental mutants of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.). In the wild type parent line, cultivar VFN8, ...

In stoloniferous species, the length of petioles is of pivotal importance because it determines the position of leaf blades within the canopy. From a mechanistic perspective, two developmental ...

If you notice bare branches on your maple tree this spring or observe a sudden leaf drop, your tree may have an insect problem and the maple petiole borer may be the culprit. Although trees drop ...
