Altered gene expression by sedaxane increases PSII efficiency, photosynthesis and growth and improves tolerance to drought in wheat seedlings (2016)
Journal Article
Ajigboye, O. O., Lu, C., Murchie, E. H., Schlatter, C., Swart, G., & Ray, R. V. (2017). Altered gene expression by sedaxane increases PSII efficiency, photosynthesis and growth and improves tolerance to drought in wheat seedlings. Pesticide Biochemistry and Physiology, 137, 49-61. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pestbp.2016.09.008

Succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor (SDHI) fungicides have been shown to increase PSII efficiency and photosynthesis under drought stress in the absence of disease to enhance the biomass and yield of winter wheat. However, the molecular mechanism of im...

The 4-Dimensional Plant: Effects of Wind-Induced Canopy Movement on Light Fluctuations and Photosynthesis (2016)
Journal Article
Burgess, A. J., Retkute, R., Preston, S. P., Jensen, O. E., Pound, M. P., Pridmore, T. P., & Murchie, E. H. (2016). The 4-Dimensional Plant: Effects of Wind-Induced Canopy Movement on Light Fluctuations and Photosynthesis. Frontiers in Plant Science, 7(1392), https://doi.org/10.3389/fpls.2016.01392

Physical perturbation of a plant canopy brought about by wind is a ubiquitous phenomenon and yet its biological importance has often been overlooked. This is partly due to the complexity of the issue at hand: wind-induced movement (or mechanical exci...

Chlorophyll fluorescence parameters allow the rapid detection and differentiation of plant responses in three different wheat pathosystems (2016)
Journal Article
Ajigboye, O. O., Bousquet, L., Murchie, E. H., & Ray, R. V. (2016). Chlorophyll fluorescence parameters allow the rapid detection and differentiation of plant responses in three different wheat pathosystems. Functional Plant Biology, 43(4), 356-369. https://doi.org/10.1071/FP15280

The present study was undertaken to identify chlorophyll fluorescence (CF) parameters that can quantify changes in PSII associated with plant responses in three different wheat pathosystems of foliar, stem-base and ear diseases. The pathosystems incl... Read More about Chlorophyll fluorescence parameters allow the rapid detection and differentiation of plant responses in three different wheat pathosystems.
