Are Stomatal Responses the Key to Understanding the Cost of Fungal Disease Resistance in Plants?

Gay, Alan P.; Mur, Luis A. J.; Withers, C. M. (2011-05-02)

Preventing disease in cereal crops is important for maintaining productivity and as the availability and efficacy of chemical control becomes reduced the emphasis on breeding for disease resistance increases. However, there ...
Blumeria graminis interactions with barley conditioned by different single R genes demonstrate a temporal and spatial relationship between stomatal dysfunction and cell death

Carver, Timothy L. W.; Prats, Elena; Roberts, Peter C.; Paveley, Neil; Sanderson, Ruth; Lyngkjaer, Michael F.; Thomas, Barry J.; Gay, Alan P.; Mur, Luis A. J. (2010-01-01)

Hypersensitive response (HR) against Blumeria graminis f. sp. hordei infection in barley (Hordeum vulgare) was associated with stomata “lock-up” leading to increased leaf water conductance (gl). Unique spatio-temporal ...
A comparison of root and stem lodging risks among winter wheat cultivars

Craigon, J.; Spink, J. H.; Gay, Alan P.; Berry, P. M. (2003-09)

Plant characters that determine stem and root lodging were measured on 15 winter wheat cultivars at three UK sites between 2000 and 2002. A model of lodging was used to estimate stem failure wind speeds (resistance to stem ...
Developing unmanned aerial vehicles for local and flexible environmental and agricultural monitoring

Eves, A. J.; Stewart, Tim P.; Gay, Alan P.; Kemp, A. I.; Easey, M.; Angel, R.; Thomas, N. J.; Pearce, D. A. (2009)
The effect of weather factors on the performance of herbicides to control Alopecurus myosuroides in winter wheat

Collings, L. V.; Blair, A. M.; Gay, Alan P.; Dyer, C. J.; MacKay, W. (2003-04)

SummaryThe effect of weather factors before and after spraying on the activity of the herbicides isoproturon and clodinafop-propargyl was assessed in field experiments from 1997 to 2000. The herbicides were sprayed at four ...
Estimating a crop root system from limited core samples

King, John A.; Gay, Alan P. (2002)
Hyperspectral imaging in plant science: some case studies of various stresses on different species and at different scales under laboratory and natural lighting conditions

Ougham, Helen J.; Donnison, Iain S.; Taylor, J.; Vozel, B.; Chehdi, K.; Gay, Alan P.; al, et; Wagstaff, Carol; Stead, A. D.; Cariou, C.; Rogers, H. J. (2006)

Hyperspectral imaging is a technique with an increasing range of applications in plant science. Here we present some case studies showing its application to a number of areas of plant stress. In the first case we will ...
Modelling cereal root systems for water and nitrogen capture: towards an economic option

Robinson, David; Bingham, Ian J.; Sylvester-Bradley, Roger; Foulkes, M. John; Gay, Alan P.; Gregory, Peter J.; King, John A. (2003)

A quantitative model of wheat root systems is developed that links the size and distribution of the root system to the capture of water and nitrogen (which are assumed to be evenly distributed with depth) during grain ...
Modification of nitrogen remobilization, grain fill and leaf senescence in maize (Zea mays) by transposon insertional mutagenesis in a protease gene

Donnison, Iain S.; Gay, Alan P.; Thomas, Howard; Edwards, Keith J.; Edwards, David; James, Caron L.; Thomas, Ann M.; Ougham, Helen J. (2007-02)

A maize (Zea mays) senescence-associated legumain gene, See2β, was characterized at the physiological and molecular levels to determine its role in senescence and resource allocation. • A reverse-genetics screen of a maize ...
Nondestructive analysis of senescence in mesophyll cells by spectral resolution of protein synthesis-dependent pigment metabolism

Gay, Alan P.; Rowland, Jem; Ougham, Helen J.; Roca, Maria; Thomas, Howard; Taylor, Janet; James, Caron L. (2008)

Over 6 d of dark-induced senescence, leaf segments of wild-type Lolium temulentum lost > 96% chlorophyll a + b; leaves from plants containing a staygreen mutation introgressed from Festuca pratensis, which has a lesion in ...
Stomatal lock-open, a consequence of epidermal cell death, follows transient suppression of stomatal opening in barley attacked by Blumeria graminis

Prats, Elena; Gay, Alan P.; Thomas, Barry J.; Mur, Luis A. J.; Carver, Timothy L. W. (2006-06-22)

Blumeria graminis f.sp. hordei (Bgh) attack disrupted stomatal behaviour, and hence leaf water conductance (gl), in barley genotypes Pallas and Risø-S (susceptible), P01 (with Mla1 conditioning a hypersensitive response; ...
