Digital Biomass Accumulation Using High-Throughput Plant Phenotype Data Analysis
Journal of Integrative Bioinformatics, 2017 Biomass is an important phenotypic trait in functional ecology and growth analysis. The typical methods for measuring biomass are destructive, and they require numerous individuals to be cultivated for repeated measurements.

Drought effect on plant biomass allocation: A meta‐analysis
Ecology and Evolution, 2017 Drought is one of the abiotic stresses controlling plant function and ecological stability. In the context of climate change, drought is predicted to occur more frequently in the future. Despite numerous attempts to clarify the overall effects of drought

Ecological Insights into the Dynamics of Plant Biomass-Degrading Microbial Consortia [PDF]
Trends in Microbiology, 2017 Plant biomass (PB) is an important resource for biofuel production. However, the frequent lack of efficiency of PB saccharification is still an industrial bottleneck. The use of enzyme cocktails produced from PB-degrading microbial consortia (PB-dmc) is a promising approach to optimize this process.

Above- and belowground herbivory jointly impact defense and seed dispersal traits in Taraxacum officinale [PDF]
, 2014 Plants are able to cope with herbivores by inducing defensive traits or growth responses that allow them to reduce or avoid the impact of herbivores. Since above- and belowground herbivores differ substantially in life-history traits, for example feeding

A theory of pulse dynamics and disturbance in ecology
Ecology, 2019 We propose four postulates as the minimum set of logical propositions necessary for a theory of pulse dynamics and disturbance in ecosystems: (1) resource dynamics characterizes the magnitude, rate, and duration of resource change caused by pulse events,
