Innate and introduced resistance traits in genetically modified aspen trees and their effect on leaf beetle feeding.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Genetic modifications of trees may provide many benefits, e.g. increase production, and mitigate climate change and herbivore impacts on forests. However, genetic modifications sometimes result in unintended effects on innate traits involved in plant ...

Maturation and related aspects in clonal forestry—Part I: concepts, regulation and consequences of phase change

open access: yesNew Forests, 2014
Progression from the juvenile to mature phase in woody plants is accompanied by changes in characteristics as diverse as adventitious rooting capacity, leaf morphology, canopy architecture, wood anatomy and reproductive development. Many concepts of phase change, the intensity and duration of changes that occur during the phase transition, and the ...

The impacts of biological invasions

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Actin Isovariant ACT2‐Mediated Cellular Auxin Homeostasis Regulates Lateral Root Organogenesis in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lateral root (LR) organogenesis is regulated by cellular flux of auxin within pericycle cells, which depends on the membrane distribution and polar localization of auxin carrier proteins. The correct distribution of auxin carrier proteins relies on the intracellular trafficking of these proteins aided by filamentous actin as a track.

Programmed cell death and genetic stability in conifer embryogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Somatic embryogenesis, the generation of embryos from somatic cells, is a valuable tool for studying embryology. In addition, somatic embryos can be used for large-scale vegetative propagation, an application of great interest for forestry.

Ictal semiology in lateral temporal epilepsy: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective We performed a systematic review of the ictal semiology of the lateral temporal lobe in focal epilepsy aiming to summarize the state‐of‐the‐art anatomo‐clinical correlations in the field and help guide interpretation of ictal semiology within the framework of pre‐surgical evaluation.

Seizure control after radiosurgical treatment in patients with cerebral arteriovenous malformations: An observational study

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Seizures are among the most common symptoms of cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). Although the main goal of AVM treatment remains complete obliteration, seizure control has become an important treatment aspect in recent years.

Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract There has been growing evidence that perturbations in gut‐microbiota‐brain axis (GMBA) are involved in mechanisms of chronic sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI). This review discusses the connection between GMBA and post‐traumatic epilepsy (PTE), the latter being a common outcome of TBI.

Combining ecosystem modelling and remote-sensing to establish the spatial and temporal dynamics of the carbon budget of fast-growing tropical Eucalyptus plantations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In the aim of estimating regional-scale carbon budgets of Eucalyptus plantations, the G'Day ecosystem model was combined with remotely-sensed estimates of the daily fraction of absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (fAPAR).
