Leaf size variations in a dominant desert shrub, Reaumuria soongarica, adapted to heterogeneous environments

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
The climate in arid Central Asia (ACA) has changed rapidly in recent decades, but the ecological consequences of this are far from clear. To predict the impacts of climate change on ecosystem functioning, greater attention should be given to the ...

Cold stress and the cold pressor test

Advances in Physiology Education, 2013
Temperature and other environmental stressors are known to affect blood pressure and heart rate. In this activity, students perform the cold pressor test, demonstrating increased blood pressure during a 1- to 2-min immersion of one hand in ice water. The cold pressor test is used clinically to evaluate autonomic and left ventricular function.

Cold Stress and Urinary Frequency [PDF]

LUTS: Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms, 2012
There have been few studies regarding the onset of urinary sensations and frequent urination induced by sudden whole‐body cooling. In this article, we review the relationship between cold stress and urinary frequency based mainly on our previous studies.

Fertilizers have a greater impact on the soil bacterial community than on the fungal community in a sandy farmland ecosystem, Inner Mongolia

Ecological Indicators, 2022
Soil microorganisms play an important role in the energy flow and nutrient cycling between soil and plants, but the impact of fertilizers on soil bacterial and fungal communities in sandy agroecosystems remains uncertain. We hypothesized that fertilizers

Induction of Salt Tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana by Volatiles From Bacillus amyloliquefaciens FZB42 via the Jasmonic Acid Signaling Pathway

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Previously, we showed that Bacillus amyloliquefaciens FZB42 can confer salt tolerance in plants by root inoculation under salt stress condition, and the FZB42 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) promoted plant growth and development under non-salt stress ...
