Geographic imprint and ecological functions of the abiotic component of periphytic biofilms [PDF]
iMeta, 2022 We revealed abiotic components (extracellular polymeric substances, EPSs) in the periphytic biofilms. Further, the effect of the microbial community on the EPS, and the geodistribution patterns and ecological functions of the EPS were studied.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Abscisic acid (ABA) is a stress hormone that accumulates under different abiotic and biotic stresses. A typical effect of ABA on leaves is to reduce transpirational water loss by closing stomata and parallelly defend against microbes by restricting their

Relative importance of biotic and abiotic soil components to plant growth and insect herbivore population dynamics. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Plants are affected by several aspects of the soil, which have the potential to exert cascading effects on the performance of herbivorous insects. The effects of biotic and abiotic soil characteristics have however mostly been investigated in isolation ...

Disentangling the abiotic and biotic components of AMF suppressive soils [PDF]
Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2021 Abstract Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are important in plant nutrient uptake, but their function is prone to environmental constraints including soil factors that may suppress AMF transfer of phosphorus (P) from the soil to the plant. The objective of this study was to disentangle the biotic and abiotic components of AMF-suppressive soils ...

Internal Abiotic Components That Influence the Development of Biocorrosion on ETICS Plasters [PDF]
Materials, 2021 Basic factors affecting the appearance of algae discoloration on the surface of the system are recognized effects of the external environment (external temperature and humidity, short- and long-term radiation, precipitation, wind and air pollution).

Drought and heat stress mediated activation of lipid signaling in plants: a critical review
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Lipids are a principal component of plasma membrane, acting as a protective barrier between the cell and its surroundings. Abiotic stresses such as drought and temperature induce various lipid-dependent signaling responses, and the membrane lipids ...

Heavy metals in abiotic and biotic components of aquaculture hydroecosystem “Ishkhan” [PDF]
Ribogospodarsʹka nauka Ukraïni, 2015 Purpose. To determine the heavy metal content in abiotic components (water and bottom sediments of tanks), feeds, organs and tissues of rainbow trout in the conditions of industrial aquaculture. Methodology. The materials for the study were 1+ rainbow trout cultivated in 2011–2012, which were produced from brood rainbow trout reared in the tank ...

The C2H2 zinc finger protein TaZFP13D increases drought stress tolerance in wheat
Plant Stress, 2022 Wheat is one of the most cultivated crops, and its production is greatly affected by abiotic stresses such as drought. Transcription factors that regulate multiple downstream genes have a good potential to improve stress tolerance due to their ability to
