The most crucial function of plant cell is to respond against stress induced for self-defence.
This defence is brought about by alteration in the pattern of gene expression: qualitative and …

Cryopreservation is the storage of viable cells, tissues, organs and organisms at ultra-low
temperatures, usually in liquid nitrogen to a minimum temperature of− 196° C. The term …

Major improvements in proteomic techniques in recent years have led to an increase in their
application in all biological fields, including plant sciences. For all proteomic approaches …

Crop plants contain large amounts of secondary compounds that interfere with protein
extraction and gel-based proteomic analysis. Thus, a protein extraction protocol that can be …

Protein extracts obtained from cells or tissues often require removal of interfering substances
for the preparation of high-quality protein samples in proteomic analysis. A number of …

Over the past decades, plant cryopreservation technologies have been evolving rapidly,
opening the door to the possibility of long-term storage of valuable genetic resources of …

It is evident from previous reports that 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA), like other known plant
growth regulators, is effective in countering the injurious effects of heavy metal-stress in …

Phenol extraction of proteins is an alternative method to classical TCA-acetone extraction. It
allows efficient protein recovery and removes nonprotein components in the case of plant …

Germin and germin-like proteins (GLPs) are encoded by a family of genes found in all
plants. They are part of the cupin superfamily of biochemically diverse proteins, a …

Plant pathogenic fungi cause important yield losses in crops. In order to develop efficient
and environmental friendly crop protection strategies, molecular studies of the fungal …
