Boron deficiency responses in maize (Zea mays L.) roots
Abstract Background Boron (B) is an essential micronutrient for plants. Dicot plants respond to insufficient B supply by altering root architecture and root hair growth. How root systems of rather low‐B demanding monocot species such as maize (Zea mays L.) respond to B deficiency in terra has not been experimentally resolved, yet.

Estimating drought conditions using an ET-based drought index
Many operational drought indices focus on precipitation and temperature when depicting hydro-climatic anomalies and this perspective can be augmented by analyses and products that reflect the evaporative dynamics of drought. The linkage between wet environmental evaporation which is the ET rate of a surface with unlimited moisture and actual ET is ...
