Redefinition and global estimation of basal ecosystem respiration rate [PDF]

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles, 2011
Abstract: Basal ecosystem respiration rate (BR), the ecosystem respiration rate at a given temperature, is a common and important parameter in empirical models for quantifying ecosystem respiration (ER) globally. Numerous studies have indicated that BR varies in space.

The biochar effect on soil respiration and nitrification

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2018
Soil microorganisms play a main role in the nutrient cycle and they also play an important role in soil health. This article studies the influence of three rates of biochar (0.5, 1 and 3%) in comparison with control (0 biochar) in two different soils ...

Myoblasts rely on TAp63 to control basal mitochondria respiration

open access: yesAging, 2018
p53, with its family members p63 and p73, have been shown to promote myoblast differentiation by regulation of the function of the retinoblastoma protein and by direct activation of p21Cip/Waf1 and p57Kip2, promoting cell cycle exit. In previous studies, we have demonstrated that the TAp63γ isoform is the only member of the p53 family that accumulates ...

Altered mitochondrial function and energy metabolism is associated with a radioresistant phenotype in oesophageal adenocarcinoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy (CRT) is increasingly the standard of care for locally advanced oesophageal cancer. A complete pathological response to CRT is associated with a favourable outcome.

Global ecological predictors of the soil priming effect. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Identifying the global drivers of soil priming is essential to understanding C cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. We conducted a survey of soils across 86 globally-distributed locations, spanning a wide range of climates, biotic communities, and soil ...

TISSUE RESPIRATION, GROWTH, AND BASAL METABOLISM

open access: yesThe Biological Bulletin, 1953
1. The relation between tissue respiration and body size was investigated in the rat. Determinations of Qo2 were made on heart, lung, liver, kidney cortex, brain cortex, diaphragm, and thymus of animals ranging from 9 gm. to 392 gm. body weight, including some determinations on fetuses and fetal tissues. A statistical evaluation of ca.

Denitrification and availability of carbon and nitrogen in a well-drained pasture soil amended with particulate organic carbon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A well-drained soil in N-fertilized dairy pasture was amended with particulate organic carbon (POC), either sawdust or coarse woody mulch, and sampled every 4 wk for a year to test the hypothesis that the addition of POC would increase denitrification ...

Measuring basal soil respiration across Europe: Do incubation temperature and incubation period matter? [PDF]

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2014
The European Commission recognises the essential role of soil biology in soil functioning and delivery of ecosystem services, but information is currently lacking evaluate of how these vary across soil and land-use types at a European scale. This study evaluated the measurement of the initial rate of soil basal respiration (BR) as a potential ...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi activity in the rhizosphere of tree seedlings subjected to residual herbicides

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology, 2021
Trees occurring on the margins of agricultural areas can mitigate damage from residual herbicides. Rhizospheric microbial activity associated with trees is one of the main remedial capacity indicators.
