Proteomics Study of Pre-Harvest Sprouting in Wheat
<p>Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a condition characterized by the early germination of spikes during moist environmental conditions. PHS lowers yield, degrades the quality of grain and thus limits the profits of wheat producers groups. During this investigation, …

Notch Signaling Determines Lymphatic Cell Fate and Regulates Sprouting Lymphangiogenesis
… demonstrated that Notch regulates developmental sprouting lymphangiogenesis by restricting growth and sprouting of lymphatics in the murine embryonic dermis. Using pharmacological intervention of Notch signaling, we found that Notch restricted pathological sprouting lymphangiogenesis in the …

VALORIZATION OF LESS COMMON GRAINS IN BAKED PRODUCTS THROUGH SPROUTING PROCESS.
… and suboptimal techno-functional properties. Sprouting has emerged as a promising technology to enhance the sensory and functional attributes of grains. However, key knowledge gaps persist regarding the impact of sprouting conditions on macromolecular transformations and their downstream …

The ecology of sprouting in South African forests, savannas and fynbos
Sprouting has only recently received attention as a key life history strategy, especially in less disturbance prone environments. The aims of this thesis were to explore the ecological role of sprouting in selected South African biomes. In particular, to explore the biogeographic, community and …

The Effect of Seed Sprouting Time and Light on Phytic Acid Concentration
… dry seeds served as a control and the various sprouting times were 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours after a 12 hour soaking. A comparison was made between sprouts grown in the light for the last 24 hours vs sprouts kept in darkened areas for the total growing time.</p> <p>Analysis was based on dry …

Ciliary neurotrophic factor signaling in the magnocellular neurosecretory system : mechanisms of neuronal survival and sprouting
… that CNTF acts as both a neuronal survival and sprouting factor for hypothalamic magnocellular neurons in vitro and in vivo. In order to determine the neuroprotective mechanisms that CNTF utilizes, we performed extensive animal work including, in vivo stereotaxic surgeries and in vitro …

The effect of the interstitial flow on the directional cell migration and sprouting of capillaries
Development of functional endothelium in tissue engineering is both critical and challenging. It is critical because of its role in transporting nutrient and waste in tissues larger than the length scale of diffusion. It is challenging because of its complexity in both the chemical and mechanical …

Modeling the Sprouting of Cyperus Rotundus L. Tubers in Response to Soil Temperatures under Soil Solarization
… were conducted to characterize and predict the sprouting of tubers of purple nutsedge (Cyperus rotundus L.) in response to temperature. Tubers were collected from the University of Hawaii Waimanalo Experiment Station and allowed to sprout in 9 cm petri dishes on 2 layers of moistened filter …

Understanding the genetic and physiological control of pre-harvest sprouting and pre-maturity amylase in UK wheat
Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) and Pre-maturity amylase (PMA) are physiological defects in wheat grains that reduce their end-use quality. PHS is the precocious germination of grains before harvest while PMA is the accumulation of α-amylase in grains. Both traits are quantitative in their expression …

Evaluating Methods of Screening for Pre-Harvest Sprouting in Soft Red Winter Wheat and the Effect of Delayed Harvest on Flour Properties
… rainfall in 2006 caused significant pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) and weathering throughout the mid-Atlantic soft red winter wheat (SRWW) (Triticum aestivum L.) growing region. Sprouting and weathering caused decreased flour quality due to lowered dough viscosity and decreased ability to withstand …

Effect of different sprouting conditions on alpha amylase activity, functional properties of wheat flour and on shelf-life of bread supplemented with sprouted wheat
In this study sprouting two different wheat cultivars under various environmental conditions revealed that varietal variation is the most important factor affecting α-amylase quantity as well as quality to modify flour functionality significantly, followed by pre-soaking duration and temperature. …

The role of terpenes as protectors of the potato crop
… crop losses are also caused by the onset of sprouting during storage. Potatoes are harvested in September, but must be stored for up to ten months of the year. Chlorpropham (CIPC) is used widely in the industry as a sprouting inhibitor, however, EU legislation changes have reduced its usage. …

BIOBASED APPROACHES AT MODULATING THE INTERACTION BETWEEN LEGUMES BIOPOLYMERS AND BIOACTIVES: A PERSPECTIVE FOR THE PRODUCTION OF BAKED GOODS
… of nutrients. To address this issue, the sprouting process on grains and legumes has emerged as a leading area of research due to its positive effect on nutritional composition. This process, applied to buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum), sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) and cowpea beans (Vigna …

Mechanical Regulation of Angiogenesis in a Biomimetic Model
… a novel organotypic model of angiogenic sprouting and neovessel formation that originates from pre-formed artificial vessels fully encapsulated within a 3D ECM. Using this model, we screened the effects of angiogenic factors and identified two distinct cocktails that promoted robust …

Effects of Alternative Silvicultural Treatments on Regeneration in the Southern Appalachians
… A second study specifically focused on stump sprouting in only three of those treatments. The treatments for first study included: a clearcut, commercial harvest, leave-tree, shelterwood, group selection, midstory treatment, and an uncut control. The second only focused on the clearcut, …

Migration Stimulating Factor, the search for inhibitors.
… cells in vitro. MSF stimulates the generation of sprouting endothelial cells from a cobblestone monolayer and acts a survival factor for spontaneously sprouting cells within a 3D matrix. NGAL does not selectively the target sprouting phenotype of endothelial cells, but induces apoptosis in all …

The morphology, neurochemistry, and consequences of sympathosensory plexuses
… This augmentation promotes the collateral sprouting of postganglionic sympathetic axons into those tissues having elevated levels of NGF. Often, NGF-induced sympathetic sprouting occurs in tissues that are normally innervated by these fibers however, high levels of NGF can also promote …

The role of serotonergic afferents in receptive field organization and response properties of cells in rat trigeminal subnucleus interpolaris
… primary afferents; peripheral and central sprouting of undamaged primary afferents; changes in morphology of second order neurons; and sprouting of central afferents to the TBNC. In addition, central monoaminergic neurons have been demonstrated to undergo considerable regeneration or …

Einfluss des GDNF-Rezeptors Ret auf die Erholung des nigrostriatalen Systems im MPTP-Mausmodell der Parkinsonerkrankung
… Axonkollateralen im Striatum und wird als Sprouting bezeichnet. Ret-defiziente Mäuse zeigten kein Sprouting. Dies impliziert, dass der Ret-Rezeptor für die Wirkung von GDNF auf Sprouting verantwortlich ist und dass endogenes GDNF ausreicht, um axonales Sprouting zu induzieren. Sowohl die …
