    Experimental Question 1 (1) The sequences that should be mutated to make the pFLS2noWbox::GUS construct are the three W-box promoter motifs. The W-box promoter motifs are cis-regulatory elements found within the FLS2 promoter (pFlS2) that WRKY transcriptional factors recognize and bind to. These promoter motifs follow a specific consensus sequence, which defines a W-Box. The three sequences that should be mutated are: (+) TTGACC, (+) TTGACT and (-) AGTCAA. The addition of excessive mutations will

    In 1937 two German workers produced a new polymer that had advantages over existing plastics made from polycondensation and was not covered by existing patients like that of Wallace Carothers polyesters patent. This polymer was polyurethane. Polyurethanes belong to the family of reaction polymers, which also consist of unsaturated polyesters epoxies and phenolics, it is produced by reacting an isocyanate containing two or more isocyanate groups per molecule with a polyol containing on average two

    Stricter regulations on acceptable emission levels from combustion technology are being put in place, and as a result innovative technologies must be developed and employed to meet these new emission standards. To achieve this, focus in combustion engineering has shifted towards implementing lean, premixed combustion technologies [1]. Premixed operating conditions allow for better control of combustor temperature and reduce NOx emissions, however premixed combustion schemes can result in stability

    Plant senescence is a highly controlled physiological process that leads to plant death, it is also known as the last development stage of a plant. The PCD, (Programmed Cell Death) is a program instilled into all kinds of plants and promotes its own individual death, a sort of “program” produced during plant development and the plants’ stress response systems. During the senescence process, the cells undergo a dramatic transition in its cellular replication, metabolism and cellular structures. The
