14. Light-Induced Chloroplast [alpha]-Amylase in Pearl Millet (Pennisetum americanum).
In pearl millet (Pennisetum americanum) seedlings light induces the appearance of a leaf [alpha]-amylase isozyme. The leaf [alpha]-amylase isozyme was present in enriched amounts in isolated chloroplast but it could not be detected in isolated etioplasts. The chloroplast [alpha]-amylase was present in both mesophyll and bundle-sheath chloroplasts. Preliminar

15. Tight clustering and hemizygosity of apomixis-linked molecular markers in Pennisetum squamulatum implies genetic control of apospory by a divergent locus that may have no allelic form in sexual genotypes
Apomixis is a naturally occurring mode of reproduction that results in embryo formation without the involvement of meiosis or fertilization of the egg. Seed-derived progeny of an apomictic plant are genetically identical to the maternal parent. We are studying a form of apomixis called apospory that occurs in the genus Pennisetum, a taxon in the grass family

16. Mechanisms of Starvation Tolerance in Pearl Millet
The response of pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum [L.]) seedlings to prolonged starvation was investigated at the biochemical and ultrastructural level. After 2 days of darkness the bulk of the seedling carbohydrate reserves were depleted. After 8 days in the dark the respiratory rate had declined to less than 50% of its initial value and the plants had lost
