Characterization of cryoprotective activity of thermal hysteresis protein in evergreen plants
(MTT, 2008)
Thermal hysteresis proteins (THPs) inhibit the growth of ice by binding to the surface of ice crystals, preventing the addition of water molecules to cause a local depression of the freezing point. Recent findings demonstrate ...
Study of hydrophobic proteins and protein complexes involved in cryopreservation of banana (Musa spp.) meristems
(MTTMTT, 2008)
Cryopreservation (or conservation at ultra-low temperatures (-196 °C)) of meristems is the best method to preserve the banana (Musa spp.) diversity safely. A prerequisite for successful application of this technique is ...
Monitoring clonal stability with retrotransposon-based markers
(MTT, 2008)
Retrotransposons elements constitute a major component of dispersed repetitious DNA in all eukaryotic genomes. Retrotransposons are largely quiescent, but activated by stresses, such as wounding, pathogen attack and cell ...
Transgenic approach for basic research in cryopreservation - problems and chances
(MTT, 2008)
In many fields of basic physiological research molecular methods are applied to create model systems. For the investigation of basic mechanisms of cryopreservation such methods have rarely been used so far. A possible ...
Fruit / seed freezing tolerance is dependent on developmental status in relation to provenance: a study of Acer pseudoplatanus across Europe
(MTT, 2008)
The effects of fruit maturity, at the time of natural dispersal, on subsequent desiccation tolerance and sub-zero storage was investigated in three lots of Acer pseudoplatanus (sycamore) collected from northern to southern ...
Applications of differential Scanning Calorimetry in developing cryopreservation strategies for Parkia speciosa
(MTT, 2008)
Shoot-tips of Parkia speciosa, a recalcitrant seed producing tropical leguminous tree withstood cryopreservation using encapsulation-vitrification in combination with trehalose preculture. Differential Scanning Calorimetry ...

Cryopreservation of hairy root cultures from Maesa lanceolata
(MTT, 2008)
Maesa lanceolata is a medicinal shrub growing in the tropics of Africa and Asia. It produces a number of different saponins for which was shown tat they exert antiviral, hemolytic, molluscicidal and anti-angiogenic ...
Influence of cryoprotectors on the viability of cryopreserved carob tree immature pollen
(MTT, 2008)
In this work the viability of carob tree (Ceratonia siliqua L.) cryopreserved immature pollen was evaluated after 5 and 8 months of storage. Anthers isolated from male and hermaphrodite flowers at developmental stages I ...
