Antifungal mechanisms of the antagonistic bacterium Bacillus mojavensis UTF-33 and its potential as a new biopesticide

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Biological control has gradually become the dominant means of controlling fungal disease over recent years. In this study, an endophytic strain of UTF-33 was isolated from acid mold (Rumex acetosa L.) leaves.

The carbon and nitrogen ecophysiologies of two endemic tropical orchids mirrors those of their temperate relatives and the local environment [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2016
Orchids are one of the most widely distributed plant families. However, current research on the ecophysiology of terrestrial orchids is biased towards temperate species. Thus, it is currently unknown whether tropical terrestrial orchids belong to similar

Indica rice restorer lines with large sink potential exhibit improved nutrient transportation to the panicle, which enhances both yield and nitrogen-use efficiency

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2021
The yield and nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) of hybrid rice combinations are closely related to restorer line. Therefore, it is essential to evaluate the agronomic characteristics of restorer lines with high yield and high NUE (HYHN).

Effect of laboratory heat stress on mortality and web mass of the common house spider, Parasteatoda tepidariorum (Koch 1841) (Araneae: Theridiidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We determined the effects of chronic heat stress on web construction of Parasteatoda tepidariorum (Araneae: Theridiidae) by measuring the survival and web mass of specimens after a 48-h period within a temperature chamber at 21, 30, 35, 40, or 50°C.

Untangling behaviours: independent expressions of female–female aggression and snake-like hissing in the blue tit (Cyanistes caeruleus)

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Aggression plays a crucial role in deterring predators and securing resources to promote fitness. Nevertheless, studies focussing on female aggression remain scarce.

The moss Bryum argenteum var. muticum Brid. is well adapted to cope with high light in continental Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The net photosynthetic rate (NP), chlorophyll fluorescence, carotenoid content and chlorophyll content of the cosmopolitan moss Bryum argenteum were measured in the field at Botany Bay, southern Victoria Land, continental Antarctica (77°S).
