Transcriptional regulation of seasonal desiccation tolerance in the fronds and rhizome of the fern Anemia caffrorum
… sensitive (DS) fronds are produced by the rhizome. In summer, when water availability is low, desiccation tolerant (DT) fronds are produced. Seasonal desiccation tolerance conferred to crops would allow for the maximization of food yields when water is available and prioritization towards …

Study of podophyllotoxin biosynthesis in Podophyllum species
… using whole plants, as well as callus and rhizome tissue. In contrast to previous claims in the literature, no active metabolism leading to podophyllotoxin formation in vivo in callus culture was observed. Similar findings were also noted for rhizome tissue. With whole plants, experiments …
