Monitoring drought responses of barley genotypes with semi-robotic phenotyping platform and association analysis between recorded traits and allelic variants of some stress genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Genetic improvement of complex traits such as drought adaptation can be advanced by the combination of genomic and phenomic approaches. Semi-robotic phenotyping platform was used for computer-controlled watering, digital and thermal imaging of barley ...

Drought and deluge—opportunities for climate‐change adaptation in US national parks

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
In a changing climate, resource management depends on anticipating changes and considering uncertainties. To facilitate effective decision making on public lands, we regionally summarized the magnitude and uncertainty of projected change in management‐relevant climate variables for 332 national park units across the contiguous US.

Tree species’ tolerance to water stress, salinity and fire [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
According to climate change predictions, water availability might change dramatically in Europe and adjacent regions. This change will undoubtedly have an adverse effect on existing tree species and affect their ability to cope with a lack or an excess ...

Resist!: Sustaining forest carbon sequestration and wood production after insect disturbance

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Disturbances from insect pests threaten ecologically and economically important goods and services supplied by forests, including wood production and carbon sequestration. We highlight the factors that influence these services’ resistance, a term quantifying the initial response to disturbance.

Genetic analysis and qtl mapping of agro-morphological traits in lowland rice (Oryza sativa L.) under drought conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The present study was undertaken to evaluate lowland rice genetic variability associated with agro-morphological traits under drought condition. A set of 250 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) from the cross between rice parental cultivarIR64 (sensitive to ...

Application of Ferulic Acid to Alleviate Chilling Injury of Banana Fruit by Regulating Redox, Phenylpropanoid, and Energy Metabolism

open access: yesFood Frontiers, EarlyView.
This study investigated the effect of ferulic acid (FA) on the cold tolerance of banana fruit under 6°C‐storage for 7 days. In comparison with control, 3 mM FA treatment significantly alleviated chilling symptoms of banana fruit by enhancing phenylpropanoid metabolism and maintaining redox and energy homeostasis. ABSTRACT Banana fruit is susceptible to
