Structure and character analysis of cotton response regulator genes family reveals that GhRR7 responses to draught stress

Biological Research, 2022
Background Cytokinin signal transduction is mediated by a two-component system (TCS). Two-component systems are utilized in plant responses to hormones as well as to biotic and abiotic environmental stimuli. In plants, response regulatory genes (RRs) are

Extracting Additional Information From Biotic Index Samples [PDF]

, 2017
Macroinvertebrates were collected from a small midwestern stream over a 3-year period as part of a non-point source pollution study. Temporal and spatial variability in standard biotic index values (BIs) were computed and compared with variability ...

Performance comparison of biotic indices measuring the ecological status base on soft-bottom macroinvertebrates: a study along the shallow Gomishan lagoon (Southeast Caspian Sea)

Brazilian Journal of Oceanography, 2015
This paper aims to test the suitability of some biotic indices for their application in Southeast Caspian Sea. For this purpose, the ecological quality of the Gomishan lagoon was assessed using three biotic indices (AMBI, BENTIX, BOPA) during summer and ...

Nitrification amplifies the decreasing trends of atmospheric oxygen and implies a larger land carbon uptake [PDF]

, 2007
[1] Atmospheric O-2 trend measurements are used to partition global oceanic and land biotic carbon sinks on a multiannual basis. The underlying principle is that a terrestrial uptake or release of CO2 is accompanied by an opposite flux of O-2.
