What tissues and experimental treatments are represented in the ACT database? Does the dataset include data from mutants as well as wild-type plants?

The database contains data from an extremely wide range of samples, covering biotic (nematode and Agrobacterium infections and plant-insect interactions) and abiotic treatments (cold and freezing stresses, CO2 concentration changes, ozone stress, effects of nitrate concentration and responses to UV-B). In addition, there are experiments analysing developmental stages; pollen and anther development, lignification, programmed cell death and senescence, shoot apical meristem and root development. In addition to wild-type plants there are experiments analysing mutants in chilling and heat stress responses, potassium channel and phosphate mutants and developmental mutants.

This covers a wide (but by no means exhaustive) range of conditions and tissues from cell cultures and seedlings to adult tissues. However, while these experiments were conceived by the various research groups to investigate a specific aspect of plant physiology, all other signalling pathways continue to function with ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
