Chloroplast-based in vitro translation systems
(1987)Intact chloroplasts from 8-9 day old pea seedlings were capable of translating mRNA into proteins at high rates. Such metabolically active chloroplasts were lysed and fractionated further in order to develop a ... -
Effects of copper, zinc and cadmium on the pigments and photosynthesis of black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) B.S.P) seedlings
(1995)The purpose of this study was to quantify the effects of heavy metals on pigments and photosynthesis in four and a half month old black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) B.S.P.) seedlings. Photosynthetic pigment analysis by ... -
Germination in pea seeds : proteolytic enzyme activity and electron microscopy
(1989)This study was undertaken with two primary objectives in mind. The first objective was to isolate several pea seed hydrolases present during early seed germination. The second objective was to perform an ultrastructural ... -
Physiology of development, germination and ubiquitination in pea seeds
(1993)The development of entire seeds and axes of Pisum sativum L. cv. Spring was followed between 18 and 47 days after flowering, in terms of changes in fresh weight, dry weight, water content, protein level and chlorophyll ... -
Priming physiology and proteinase purification from resting jack pine seeds
(1989)Pines constitute an important economic species for the lumber and paper industries in the Boreal region (Galloway, 1986). Current seedling production, dependent on the availability of high quality seed, may be considered ... -
Studies on the fungus Flammulina velutipes
(1987)Local ligninocellulosic waste materials were examined as substrates for growing Flammulina velutipes mushrooms. Mushroom production was favoured by substrate moisture content in the range of 125-150%, (substrate supplementation ... -
Ubiquitin metabolism in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
(1995)This work characterizes parameters of ubiquitin metabolism in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Dangeard growing under constant conditions and after an exposure to cold shock. Ratio of free and conjugated ubiquitin to total ...
