Identification of suitable genotypes of lentil (Lens culinaris) for improved adaptation to rice fallow areas of Gangetic Alluvial Zone

The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2023
Rice fallows (RF) are the low lying kharif sown rice (Oryza sativa L.) areas that remain uncropped due to dearth of suitable cultivars of winter (rabi) pulses.

Interactions among salt marsh plants vary geographically but not latitudinally along the California coast. [PDF]

, 2017
The strength of species interactions often varies geographically and locally with environmental conditions. Competitive interactions are predicted to be stronger in benign environments while facilitation is expected to be stronger in harsh ones.

Allometry rather than abiotic drivers explains biomass allocation among leaves, stems and roots of Artemisia across a large environmental gradient in China

Journal of Ecology, 2020
Biomass allocation patterns reflect the adaptive strategies of plants growing in different environments, which is a central issue in comparative plant ecology and evolution. However, the factors underpinning specific allocation patterns across organs and

Insect‐Microbe‐Based Laccase: Untapped Natural Resource for Industrial and Biotechnological Applications

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
The insect‐microbe interplay fulfills a key ecological role involving the degradation of ligninocellulose biomass. This is coordinated by the secretion of different kinds of proteins, of which ligninolytic enzymes, such as laccases (Lacs), are of prime importance.

Evaluation and management implications of uncertainty in a multispecies size-structured model of population and community responses to fishing [PDF]

, 2014
1. Implementation of an ecosystem approach to fisheries requires advice on trade-offs among fished species and between fisheries yields and biodiversity or food web properties.

Performance of amplicon and shotgun sequencing for accurate biomass estimation in invertebrate community samples

Molecular Ecology Resources, 2018
New applications of DNA and RNA sequencing are expanding the field of biodiversity discovery and ecological monitoring, yet questions remain regarding precision and efficiency. Due to primer bias, the ability of metabarcoding to accurately depict biomass

Accounting for ALA Natural Mutations Enhances the Efficiency of Graphene Oxide Nanopriming in Bar‐Modified Arabidopsis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanopriming enhances plant resilience to environmental challenges; however, its effectiveness across diverse genetic backgrounds, including genetic modifications and natural variations, remains uncertain. These findings demonstrate that nanopriming improves efficacy when natural genetic variations are considered, particularly in genetically modified ...

Abiotic Factors and Plant Communities Shape the Distribution of Soil Pathogenic Oomycetes in Chinese Grasslands

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The continental‐scale study reveals that soil phosphorus strongly predicts the richness of soil pathogenic oomycetes in Chinese grasslands, while precipitation and plant species richness drive their absolute abundance; modeling predicts ≈42% of grassland areas may face elevated oomycete disease risk under future climate scenarios, especially in typical

Linking individual behaviour to community scale patterns in fungi [PDF]

, 2011
The fungi comprise a separate kingdom of life and epitomise the indeterminate growth form. Very little is known about the factors that influence the nature of fungal diversity and the link between individual behaviour and the structure and function of ...

Faster nitrogen cycling and more fungal and root biomass in cold ecosystems under experimental warming: a meta‐analysis

Ecology, 2019
Warming can alter the biogeochemistry and ecology of soils. These alterations can be particularly large in high northern latitude ecosystems, which are experiencing the most intense warming globally.
