    1. Illustration of electrophoresis. 2. Illustration of electrophoresis retardation. Electrophoresis is the motion of charged dispersed particles or dissolved charged molecules relative to a fluid under the influence of a spatially uniform electric field. As a rule, these are zwitterions with a positive or negative net charge. [1]

  4. Heliophyte - Wikipedia

    Heliophytes or sunstroke plants are adapted to a habitat with a very intensive insolation by their structure and metabolism. Examples are mullein, ling, thyme and soft velcro, white clover, and most roses. They are common in open terrain, rocks, meadows, as well as at the mountain pastures and grasslands and other long sunny exposures. [1] [2]

  7. Phytoplasma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phytoplasma

    Many phytoplasma-infected plants develop a bushy or "witches' broom" appearance due to changes in their normal growth patterns. Most plants exhibit apical dominance, but infection can trigger the proliferation of axillary (side) shoots and a reduction in internode size. [8] Such symptoms are actually useful in the commercial production of ...

  8. Antagonism (phytopathology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antagonism_(phytopathology)

    Numerous microbial antagonists, including yeasts and bacteria, are isolated from diverse environments such as soil, plants, compost, and oceans for their potential to control plant diseases. For example, endophyte microorganisms found inside guarana seeds and rhizospheric soil have shown their ability to fight harmful pathogens, making them ...
