The toxic actions of pyrrolizidine (Senecio) alkaloids
EK McLEAN - Pharmacological reviews, 1970 - ASPET
The pyrrolizidine alkaloids give rise to a large number of toxic effects, many of them apparently
unconnected with each other. They were for a long time regarded principally as liver …

[HTML][HTML] Climate-adjusted provenancing: a strategy for climate-resilient ecological restoration
Investments in ecological restoration are estimated at $ US 2 trillion per annum worldwide
and are increasing rapidly (Cunningham, 2008; Williams et al., 2014). These investments are …

Plasticity of functional traits varies clinally along a rainfall gradient in Eucalyptus tricarpa
Widespread species often occur across a range of climatic conditions, through a combination
of local genetic adaptations and phenotypic plasticity. Species with greater phenotypic …

Genome‐wide scans detect adaptation to aridity in a widespread forest tree species
Patterns of adaptive variation within plant species are best studied through common garden
experiments, but these are costly and time‐consuming, especially for trees that have long …

Instant cirrhosis: an improved method for producing cirrhosis of the liver in rats by simultaneous administration of carbon tetrachloride and phenobarbitone
EK McLean, AEM McLean… - British journal of …, 1969 - ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
… We have shown that the acute toxicity of CC14 is dependent upon its metabolism by
microsomal hydroxylating enzyme systems of the liver, and toxicity is therefore enhanced by …

Soybean SAT1 (Symbiotic Ammonium Transporter 1) encodes a bHLH transcription factor involved in nodule growth and NH4+ transport
Glycine max symbiotic ammonium transporter 1 was first documented as a putative ammonium
(NH 4 + ) channel localized to the symbiosome membrane of soybean root nodules. We …

1. Protein-depleted rats are resistant to the lethal effects of carbon tetrachloride. The LD(50)
is 6.4ml./kg. in stock rats and 14.7ml./kg. in rats fed on protein-free diets. 2. Protein-depleted …

Wait or escape? Contrasting submergence tolerance strategies of Rorippa amphibia, Rorippa sylvestris and their hybrid
Background and Aims Differential responses of closely related species to submergence can
provide insight into the evolution and mechanisms of submergence tolerance. Several traits …

Root hydraulic conductance and aquaporin abundance respond rapidly to partial root‐zone drying events in a riparian Melaleuca species
• Drying a portion of a root system (partial root‐zone drying (PRD)) can induce partial
stomatal closure, but this response is not always observed. We hypothesized that some of the …
