A pivotal study has shed light on the genetic underpinnings of cucumbers' ability to withstand waterlogging. The research identifies a key gene, CsPrx73, which is instrumental in the development of ...

Recently, it was demonstrated that nitric oxide (NO) and cGMP are involved in the auxin response during the adventitious rooting process in cucumber (Cucumis sativus; Pagnussat et al., 2002, 2003).

Most dicotyledonous species respond to Fe deficiency by developing several mechanisms known as Fe-deficiency stress responses. To study the regulation of these responses, young cucumber plants ...

Adventitious root formation is a critical process in plant regeneration whereby roots develop from non‐root tissues, such as stems or leaves. This phenomenon underpins vegetative propagation ...

Adventitious roots are roots that originate from nonstandard locations on a plant such as the stems or leaves. They can occur as part of a plant’s normal growth and development or they can arise due ...
