Water stress-induced changes in morphology and anatomy of flag leaf of spring wheat
Flag leaves of wheat (drought hardened and non-hardened) were examined by light microscopy to determine whether the differences in leaf anatomy could be related to the known differences in dehydration tolerance.

Plant regeneration from hypocotyl protoplasts of winter oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.)
Protoplasts were isolated from hypocotyls of six breeding lines and two cultivars of winter oilseed rape (B. napus L.). Under presented culture conditions almost all of the protoplasts regenerated cell walls.

Evidence of acclimatization or adaptation in Hawaiian corals to higher ocean temperatures
Ocean temperatures have been accelerating at an alarming rate mainly due to anthropogenic fossil fuel emissions. This has led to an increase in the severity and duration of coral bleaching events.

Acclimatization of massive reef-building corals to consecutive heatwaves
Reef-building corals typically live close to the upper limits of their thermal tolerance and even small increases in summer water temperatures can lead to bleaching and mortality. Projections of coral reef futures based on forecasts of ocean temperatures

Chitosan and Chitosan Nanoparticles: Parameters Enhancing Antifungal Activity
Chitosan (CS), a biopolymer derived from chitin, is known for strong antifungal activity while being biodegradable, biocompatible, and non-toxic. Because of its characteristic it has been widely used in control of fungal pathogens. Antifungal activity of

Epigenome-associated phenotypic acclimatization to ocean acidification in a reef-building coral
Changes in gene body methylation predict phenotypic acclimatization of the coral Stylophora pistillata to ocean acidification. There are increasing concerns that the current rate of climate change might outpace the ability of reef-building corals to ...

Geographic variation in walking activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum
This study examined whether there is geographic variation in field populations, focusing on the moving activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum. Results showed significant differences in moving activity among field populations but no correlation with latitude or meteorological factors.
