Is a plant truly plastic? Nutrients and neighbours induce trait‐specific responses, but performance depends on response direction

Oikos, EarlyView.
Plants live in a heterogeneous world, where nutrient and neighbour distributions vary in space and time. Plants can respond to this variation through plastic responses in individual organs, which are assumed to be coordinated among traits to support a coherent, adaptive strategy, maintaining plant growth in varying environments.

Toxicity of aqueous extracts of Ilex paraguariensis A.St.‐Hil. about Euphorbia heterophylla L.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Aqueous extracts of Ilex paraguariensis A.St.‐Hil. strongly inhibit Euphorbia heterophylla L. germination and early seedling growth, but show mild phytotoxicity on mature plants, paradoxically promoting biomass via antioxidants. Abstract BACKGROUND The escalating challenge of herbicide‐resistant weeds, exemplified by Euphorbia heterophylla L.

Allelopathic Observations in Rice (Oryza sativa L.) to Ducksalad (Heteranthera limosa) [PDF]

, 1989
More than 50 weed species infest drill-seeded rice in the U.S. and one of the most prevalent aquatic weeks is ducksalad (Heteranthera limosa). During the summer of 1988, a field experiment was conducted to identify rice accessions from the USDA/ARS rice ...

Recycling of date palm foliar waste into a biofertilizer using siliceous minerals and Trichoderma lignorum

International Journal of Recycling of Organic Waste in Agriculture
Purpose: Palm pruning produces a huge amounts of wastes containing high amount of crude fiber, which slows down its decomposition in soil. This study aims to optimize the process of date palm leaves recycling into an effective biofertiliser using ...

Cyanopeptide Mixtures Induce Variable Synergistic and Antagonistic Effects Across Diverse Human Cell Lines

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) threaten human, animal, and ecosystem health and safety through production of toxic secondary metabolites. Microcystis, a cosmopolitan bloom‐forming cyanobacterial genus, is well‐known for producing hepatotoxic microcystins (MCs), but it can produce many other bioactive cyanopeptides, such as ...

Influence of prey concentration, light intensity, and temperature on the growth and ingestion of the mixotrophic dinoflagellate Pyrophacus horologium, a predator of the harmful species Heterocapsa niei

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Pyrophacus horologium belongs to the family Pyrocystaceae and was recently identified as a mixotrophic dinoflagellate capable of feeding on other dinoflagellates. In this study, the growth and feeding responses of P. horologium were investigated under various environmental conditions by providing Heterocapsa niei, its preferred prey.
