Gene expression in opening and senescing petals of morning glory (Ipomoea nil) flowers (2007)
Yamada, T., Ichimura, K., Kanekatsu, M.
We isolated several senescence-associated genes (SAGs) from the petals of morning glory (Ipomoea nil) flowers, with the aim of furthering our understanding of programmed cell death. Samples were...
Depending on the species, the end of flower life span is characterized by petal wilting or by abscission of petals that are still fully turgid. Wilting at the end of petal life is due to programmed...

Nannelli, F., Fazio, V. S. U., Matsuzawa, Y., Komitov, L., Ichimura, K.
Many nematic liquid crystals (NLCs) lack a polar headgroup and thus are not able to form stable monolayers at the air/water (a/w) interface. A way to obtain monomolecular films of these compounds is...
