UV-induced carbon monoxide emission from living vegetation [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2013 The global burden of carbon monoxide (CO) is rather uncertain. In this paper we address the potential for UV-induced CO emission by living terrestrial vegetation surfaces. Real-time measurements of CO concentrations were made with a cavity-enhanced laser

The role of mangrove fine root production and decomposition on soil organic carbon component ratios
Ecological Indicators, 2021 Mangrove fine roots are an important contributor to soil organic matter (SOC), yet how their production and decomposition affect SOC accumulation across the sea-land gradient is still elusive.

ASSESSING THE RELATIVE INFLUENCES OF ABIOTIC AND BIOTIC FACTORS ON A SPECIES’ DISTRIBUTION USING PSEUDO-ABSENCE AND FUNCTIONAL TRAIT DATA: A CASE STUDY WITH THE AMERICAN EEL (Anguilla rostrata) [PDF]
, 2018 Species’ distributions are influenced by abiotic and biotic factors but direct comparison of their relative importance is difficult, particularly when working with complex, multi-species datasets. Here, we present a flexible method to compare abiotic and

Contribution of time of day and the circadian clock to the heat stress responsive transcriptome in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
, 2019 In Arabidopsis, a large subset of heat responsive genes exhibits diurnal or circadian oscillations. However, to what extent the dimension of time and/or the circadian clock contribute to heat stress responses remains largely unknown.

Cassava MeRS40 is required for the regulation of plant salt tolerance
Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2023 Soil salinity affects the expression of serine/arginine-rich (SR) genes and isoforms by alternative splicing, which in turn regulates the adaptation of plants to stress.

The Status of Abiotic Components in Aquatic Environment of Khaste Lake, Pokhara
Prithvi Journal of Research and Innovation, 2021 Water is one of the most significant natural resources. In plants and animals, different physiological processes like respiration, photosynthesis, absorption of nutrients and other metabolic process get influenced by the amount of availability of water. This study has been conducted to evaluate water quality of Khaste Lake, Pokhara.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A new class of living liquid metal composites is introduced, embedding Bacillus subtilis endospores into eutectic gallium–indium (EGaIn). The spores enhance droplet coalescence, strengthen interfacial conductivity, and provide on‐demand electrogenic functionality after germination. The composites exhibit high conductivity, self‐healing, patternability,
