Green leaf volatile emissions during high temperature and drought stress in a c...
Jardine, Kolby J.; Chambers, Jeffrey Quintin; Holm, Jennifer A.; Jardine, Angela B.; Fontes, Clarissa Gouveia; Zorzanelli, Raquel F.Prolonged drought stress combined with high leaf temperatures can induce programmed leaf senescence involving lipid peroxidation, and the loss of net carbon assimilation during early stages of tree mortality. Periodic droughts are known to induce widespread tree mortality in the Amazon rainforest, but little is known about the role of lipid peroxidation during drought-induced leaf senescence. In this study, we ...
Emissions of putative isoprene oxidation products from mango branches under abi...
Jardine, Kolby J.; Meyers, Kimberly T.; Abrell, Leif; Alves, Eliane Gomes; Yáñez-Serrano, Ana Maria; Kesselmeier, Jürgen; Karl, Thomas G.Although several per cent of net carbon assimilation can be re-released as isoprene emissions to the atmosphere by many tropical plants, much uncertainty remains regarding its biological significance. In a previous study, we detected emissions of isoprene and its oxidation products methyl vinyl ketone (MVK) and methacrolein (MACR) from tropical plants under high temperature/light stress, suggesting that isopren...
