Effects of inter-varietal diversity, biotic stresses and environmental productivity on grain yield of spring barley variety mixtures [PDF]
, 2012 Varietal seed mixtures tend to increase and stabilize crop yields, yet their application is sparse. Large-scale cultivation of variety mixtures may require a better understanding of how inter-varietal interactions and their interaction with the ...

ROS generated from biotic stress: Effects on plants and alleviation by endophytic microbes
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Aerobic living is thought to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are an inevitable chemical component. They are produced exclusively in cellular compartments in aerobic metabolism involving significant energy transfer and are regarded as by ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.A mouse model for vascular normalization and a human breast cancer cohort were studied to understand the relationship between vascular leakage and tumor immune suppression. For this, endothelial and immune cell RNAseq, staining for vascular function, and immune cell profiling were employed.

Arcopilus aureus : a valuable endophytic associate of hazelnut
Acta Agrobotanica, 2023 Endophytic fungi are increasingly being considered for their ecological role and effects on plant protection and nutrition. Their contribution in improving fitness can be particularly relevant in the case of semi-extensive tree crops, such as hazelnut ...

Field-control, phase-transitions, and life's emergence [PDF]
, 2012 Instances of critical-like characteristics in living systems at each organizational level as well as the spontaneous emergence of computation (Langton), indicate the relevance of self-organized criticality (SOC).

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.KHS‐Cnd peptide is able to impair biofilm formation and disaggregate mature biofilms in Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates. Differences in extracellular metabolites reflect changes in biofilm metabolism due to KHS‐Cnd treatment. Among the differentially represented extracellular metabolites upon KHS‐Cnd treatment, the significantly altered ...

Effective Biotic Elicitors for Augmentation of Secondary Metabolite Production in Medicinal Plants
AgriculturePlants are an essential component of our daily diet, and their nutritional value has been thoroughly studied for many years. The ability of plants to adapt to changing environmental conditions through signaling systems is an essential component of their ...

Robust monomer-distribution biosignatures in evolving digital biota [PDF]
, 2011 Because organisms synthesize component molecules at rates that reflect those molecules' adaptive utility, we expect a population of biota to leave a distinctive chemical signature on their environment that is anomalous given the local (abiotic) chemistry.
