The language of dormancy is rich and poetic, as researchers spanning disciplines and decades
have attempted to understand the spell that entranced ‘Sleeping Beauty’, and how she …

The United Nations declared 2016 as the International Year of Pulses (grain legumes) under
the banner ‘nutritious seeds for a sustainable future’. A second green revolution is required …

Global food security requires a major re-focusing of plant sciences, crop improvement and
production agronomy towards grain legumes (pulse crops) over coming decades, with …

The alternative oxidase (Aox) is encoded in two discrete gene subfamilies in higher plants.
Aox1 is most widely known for its induction by stress stimuli in many tissues and is present in …

Many high-grade serous carcinomas (HGSCs) of the pelvis are thought to originate in the
distal portion of the fallopian tube. Serous tubal intra-epithelial carcinoma (STIC) lesions are …

Dormant or quiescent buds of woody perennials are often dense and in the case of grapevine
( Vitis vinifera L.) have a low tissue oxygen status. The precise timing of the decision to …

Flavonoids and nitrates in fruits and vegetables may protect against cardiovascular disease.
Dietary flavonoids and nitrates can augment nitric oxide status via distinct pathways, which …

Significance: We provide a conceptual framework for the interactions between the cellular
redox signaling hub and the phytohormone signaling network that controls plant growth and …

Emerging evidence highlights dietary flavonoids and nitrate as candidates that may explain
at least part of the cardioprotective effect of a fruit and vegetable diet. Nitric oxide plays a …

There is mounting evidence that specific dietary polyphenols can enhance vascular health
by augmenting nitric oxide. Our aim was to investigate the acute effects of chlorogenic acid, …
