The impact of urbanisation on social behaviour: a comprehensive review

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urbanisation is a key driver of global environmental change and presents animals with novel stressors and challenges. It can fundamentally influence social behaviour and has the potential to reshape within‐ and between‐species social interactions. Given the role of social behaviour in reproductive fitness and survival, understanding how social

The spread of non‐native species

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Effect of elevated atmospheric CO2 level on the abiotic and biotic stress tolerance of cereals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Effect of elevated CO2 level (EC) was studied on the tolerance of cereals to elevated temperature and drought and on the resistance of wheat to fungal diseases. In general, elevated growth temperature did not affect final grain size, thus having less

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

Comprehensive co-expression network reveals the fine-tuning of AsHSFA2c in balancing drought tolerance and growth in oat

open access: yesCommunications Biology
Persistent activation of drought tolerance is detrimental to plant growth and development. However, the mechanism that balances plant drought tolerance and growth remains largely undetermined.

Physiology and transcriptome profiling reveal the drought tolerance of five grape varieties under high temperatures

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture
Evaluating plant stress tolerance and screening key regulatory genes under the combined stresses of high temperature and drought are important for studying plant stress tolerance mechanisms.

Physiological and molecular responses of diploid and tetraploid Carrizo Citrange under water Stress : S02P14 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In citrus, the use rootstock promotes productivity, improves fruit quality and may confer resistance or tolerance to biotic and abiotic stress. 'Carrizo' citrange (Citrus sinensis [L.] Osbeck × Poncirus trifoliata [L.] Raf), is one of the most popular ...

Efficacy of Drying Maize Seeds Using Zeolite Beads Under Hermetic Storage Conditions

open access: yesCereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sun drying of seeds prior to storage is a common practice in Sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA), but this method is unpredictable, especially during rainy seasons. Seed longevity and survival in storage depend on seed moisture content (MC); hence, controlling MC in storage is essential.

The Application of Carbon Dots in Crops for Sustainable Agriculture

open access: yesChemistryEurope, EarlyView.
Carbon dots serve as versatile nanoagents across the crop life cycle. They promote plant growth and photosynthesis, enhance resilience to biotic and abiotic stresses, aid in postharvest preservation, and enable sensitive detection of contaminants.
