This study showed that foliar spray of 2 % methanol significantly increased stomatal conductance, photosynthesis, and growth of broad bean (Vicia faba L.). To understand the molecular mechanisms behind the methanol-enhanced photosynthesis of broad bean, a forward suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) cDNA library was constructed with 2 % methanol-sprayed leaves.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
