Hydrological variability and connectivity shape floodplain microbial community dynamics
Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.Abstract Floodplains are dynamic interfaces between aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, where ecosystem functioning is strongly influenced by microbial communities. To investigate the composition of free‐living and particle‐associated prokaryotic and microbial eukaryotic communities, five interconnected study sites were sampled in one of the best ...

Characterisation of a chlororespiratory pathway in Beta vulgaris and Trifolium repens : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Plant Biology at Massey University, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2002 The chloroplast respiratory pathway (chlororespiration) is postulated to interact with the photosynthetic pathway through the plastoquinone (PQ) pool. Two enzymes are proposed to operate in the pathway: an NAD(P)H dehydrogenase that is homologous to the ...

Plant defense strategies: The dual armor of disease resistance and tolerance
New Plant Protection, EarlyView.Plants employ dual strategies against pathogens: Resistance limits invasion via immune responses, whereas tolerance mitigates damage to sustain growth—together enhancing survival under infections. Abstract Pathogen infections pose a significant threat to plant health, global food security, and ecosystems.

Calcium signaling in plant defense
New Plant Protection, EarlyView.Calcium signaling acts as a central hub in plant immunity, translating pathogen perception into defense responses. This review highlights the channels, sensors, and signaling networks involved, and discusses how pathogens subvert calcium dynamics, as well as how this knowledge may inspire innovative strategies for engineering durable crop resistance ...

Aromatic plants, nest bacterial diversity, and nestling condition in Corsican blue tits
Oikos, EarlyView.According to the ‘nest protection hypothesis', some passerines incorporate fresh aromatic plants into their nests which reduce pathogens that can negatively affect nestlings. We experimentally evaluated the effect of five aromatic plant species on the nest bacterial microbiota of Corsican blue tits Cyanistes caeruleus.
