Exogenous low-dose hydrogen peroxide enhances drought tolerance of soybean (Glycine max L.) through inducing antioxidant system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) functions as a signal molecule in plants under abiotic and biotic stress. In this study, the role of exogenous H2O2 in improving drought tolerance in two soybean cultivars (Glycine max L.

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

Spatial metrics in fire ecology: seeking consistency amidst complexity

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Technological advances, including remote sensing, have led to a proliferation of metrics used in ecological studies to examine spatial patterns of fire regimes and their ecological effects. Researchers can use many different metrics to analyse spatial variation in both fire events and resulting fire regimes, including fire size, shape ...

Identifikasi Toleransi Kekeringan Tetua Padi Hibrida pada Fase Perkecambahan Menggunakan Polietilen Glikol (PEG) 6000 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Developing of drought tolerant hybrid rice varieties requires parental lines which have tolerance to drought. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) has been widely used as an osmotic solution for detecting drought tolerance at germination stage of rice.

A roadmap to key traits of invasive Drosophilidae

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have intensified in recent decades, mostly driven by international trade and travel, raising significant concerns, particularly regarding insect pests. Once non‐native species establish, they can disrupt natural ecosystem stability, undermine agroecosystem sustainability and cause substantial economic losses.

Too Hot to Profit? Climatic Stress and Farm‐Level Performance in Italian Viticulture

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the economic impact of long‐run climatic conditions on Italian wine farms by applying a Ricardian framework to 1431 firms from the 2022 RICA‐FADN survey. We combine farm‐level revenues with viticulture‐specific agroclimatic indicators to assess how climate stress shapes profitability across 77 Italian NUTS3 provinces ...
