Journal ArticleDOI

Improving plant drought, salt, and freezing tolerance by gene transfer of a single stress-inducible transcription factor

TL;DR: This article showed that over-expression of the cDNA encoding DREB1A in transgenic plants activated the expression of many of these stress tolerance genes under normal growing conditions and resulted in improved tolerance to drought, salt loading, and freezing.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA-binding specificity of the ERF/AP2 domain of Arabidopsis DREBs, transcription factors involved in dehydration- and cold-inducible gene expression

TL;DR: Gel mobility shift assay using mutant DREB proteins showed that the two amino acids, valine and glutamic acid conserved in the ERF/AP2 domains, especially valine, have important roles in DNA-binding specificity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optical vortices 30 years on: OAM manipulation from topological charge to multiple singularities

TL;DR: The authors survey the steady refinement of techniques used to create optical vortices, and explore their applications, which include sophisticated optical computing processes, novel microscopy and imaging techniques, the creation of ‘optical tweezers’ to trap particles of matter, and optical machining using light to pattern structures on the nanoscale.
Journal ArticleDOI

Imaging iron stores in the brain using magnetic resonance imaging.

TL;DR: This review examines the response of the magnetic resonance visible iron in tissue that produces signal changes in both magnitude and phase images that seem to correlate with brain iron content, but still have not been successfully exploited to accurately and precisely quantify brain iron.
