New equations for redox and nano-signal transduction (2004)
Journal Article

Cells maintain redox potentials (Eh) in intracellular compartments, sometimes referred to as redox environments. These potentials are often very reducing, for example in the cytoplasm, but throughout the cell different potentials are maintained, comm...

ABA, hydrogen peroxide and nitric oxide signalling in stomatal guard cells (2004)
Journal Article

Increased synthesis and redistribution of the phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) in response to water deficit stress initiates an intricate network of signalling pathways in guard cells leading to stomatal closure. Despite the large number of ABA signa... Read More about ABA, hydrogen peroxide and nitric oxide signalling in stomatal guard cells.

Interrupting goal directed behaviour: The effects of interruption position, type, and warning (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Hydrogen peroxide is a common signal for darkness and ABA-induced stomatal closure in Pisum sativum L. (2004)
Journal Article

The requirement for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) generation and action during stomatal closure induced by darkness and abscisic acid (ABA) was investigated in pea (Pisum sativum L.). Stomatal closure induced by darkness or ABA was inhibited by the H2O2-s... Read More about Hydrogen peroxide is a common signal for darkness and ABA-induced stomatal closure in Pisum sativum L..

Nitric oxide signalling in plants (2003)
Journal Article

Recently nitric oxide (NO) has emerged as a key signalling molecule in plants. Here we review the potential sources of endogenous NO, outline the biological processes likely to be mediated by NO, and discuss the downstream signalling processes by whi...

Nitric oxide as a mediator of ABA signalling in stomatal guard cells (2003)
Journal Article

A new role for an old enzyme: Nitrate reductase-mediated nitric oxide generation is required for abscisic acid-induced stomatal closure in Arabidopsis thaliana (2002)
Journal Article

The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA), synthesized in response to water-deficit stress, induces stomatal closure via activation of complex signaling cascades. Recent work has established that nitric oxide (NO) is a key signaling molecule mediating AB...

Regulation of the Arabidopsis transcriptome by oxidative stress (2001)
Journal Article

Oxidative stress, resulting from an imbalance in the accumulation and removal of reactive oxygen species such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), is a challenge faced by all aerobic organisms. In plants, exposure to various abiotic and biotic stresses resul... Read More about Regulation of the Arabidopsis transcriptome by oxidative stress.

Highly conserved sequences flank avirulence genes: Isolation of novel avirulence genes from Pseudomonas syringae pv. pisi (2001)
Journal Article

Molecular characterization of avrPphD, a widely-distributed gene from Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola involved in non-host recognition by pea (Pisum sativum) (2001)
Journal Article

A genomic library clone, pPPY40, from Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola was previously shown to consist of two regions: region I potentially encoded an avirulence gene involved in non-host recognition in pea and region II contained a replicase ge...

An intriguing new genus of scuttle fly (Diptera: Phoridae) from Borneo (2001)
Journal Article

Dohrnigma nudifrons n. gen., n. sp. is described from Borneo. It seems to represent a transitional form related to Dohrniphora DAHL. Synaptophora BROWN is transferred to the Diplonevrini, which in turn is removed from the subfamily Aenigmatiinae.

Excision from tRNA genes of a large chromosomal region, carrying avrPphB, associated with race change in the bean pathogen, Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola (2000)
Journal Article

Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola (Pph) race 4 strain 1302A carries avirulence gene avrPphB. Strain RJ3, a sectoral variant from a 1302A culture, exhibited an extended host range in cultivars of bean and soybean resulting from the absence of avrP...

A dispensable region of the chromosome which is associated with an avirulence gene in Pseudomonas syringae pv. pisi (1999)
Journal Article

Pseudomonas syringae pv. pisi comprises a number of races which fall into two phylogenetically distinct groups (designated I and II). Races are based on cultivar specificity in the host plant, pea (Pisum sativum), and are specified by the presence of...

Specific oligonucleotide primers for the identification of Pseudomonas syringae pv. pisi yield one of two possible DNA fragments by PCR amplification: evidence for phylogenetic divergence (1996)
Journal Article

Two unique DNA fragments, generated by RAPD-PCR, were used as probes against dot-blots of representative isolates of the seven races of pseudomonas syringae pv. pisi. DNA from each isolate hybridized only to one of the two probes. Fragments identifie...
