概括
麦中的种子休眠受SD1位点的氨氨酸转移酶基因 (AlaAT1) 的影响. 非休眠的AlaAT1等位基因降低了对缺氧的敏感性,促进了发芽,并可能减轻麦大麦的收割前发芽.

Adaptations that Reduce Water Loss
26.4K
Though evaporation from plant leaves drives transpiration, it also results in loss of water. Because water is critical for photosynthetic reactions and other cellular processes, evolutionary pressures on plants in different environments have driven the acquisition of adaptations that reduce water loss.

Overview of Metabolism
32.2K
Living cells constantly carry out various chemical reactions which are necessary for their proper functioning. These reactions are interlinked to one another via multiple pathways. The collection of these chemical reactions is known as metabolism.
Plant Metabolism
Sunlight, the primary source of energy in plants, is first absorbed by the chlorophyll pigments present in their leaves. Plants then use this energy to carry out photosynthesis, where water is oxidized into oxygen and carbon dioxide...
