Effects of GABA-transaminase inhibitor Vigabatrin on thermoregulation in rats.

abstract：:How to enhance fruit tolerance to cold stress is an important biological interest. In this paper, we found that mango (Mangifera indica L.) fruit treated with 10 μM brassinolide (BL) showed a higher tolerance to cold temperature of 5 °C. Further, we compared the changes in expression profiles of plasma membrane (PM) p...
