Relationship between Forest Ecophysiology and Environment [PDF]

, 2021
Although aspects of forest ecophysiology and forest environments have received considerable attention from research scientists in the last three decades, assessment of implications for meeting the climate targets and international agreements is still a ...

Maize Crops Face High Stomatal Uptake During High Exposure to Ozone in an Agroecosystem in the United States Corn Belt. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol
Tropospheric ozone (O3) is a phytotoxic air pollutant. The stomatal uptake of O3 is a substantial sink of O3, but it can create oxidative stress within plants, reducing photosynthesis and crop yields. In seasonally dry climates, stomatal regulation causes temporal decoupling between stomatal conductance and atmospheric O3 concentrations protecting ...

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

Journal 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).

Seasonal variation in gas exchange by plants of Erythroxylum simonis Plowman

Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2018
Erythroxylum simonisis an understory species found in Northeast Brazil. Due to its shaded habitat,E. simonisis subjected to seasonal oscillations of the environment, to which it must respond ecophysiologically. The objective of this study was to evaluate

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

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

Ethylene Differentially Modulates Hypoxia Responses and Tolerance across Solanum Species [PDF]

, 2020
The increasing occurrence of floods hinders agricultural crop production and threatens global food security. The majority of vegetable crops are highly sensitive to flooding and it is unclear how these plants use flooding signals to acclimate to ...

Drivers of Dyadic Cofeeding Tolerance in Pan: A Composite Measure Approach

Biology, 2022
This study aimed to construct a composite model of Dyadic Cofeeding Tolerance (DCT) in zoo-housed bonobos and chimpanzees using a validated experimental cofeeding paradigm and to investigate whether components resulting from this model differ between the

The shade-avoidance syndrome: Multiple signals and ecological consequences [PDF]

, 2017
Plants use photoreceptor proteins to detect the proximity of other plants and to activate adaptive responses. Of these photoreceptors, phytochrome B (phyB), which is sensitive to changes in the red (R) to far-red (FR) ratio of sunlight, is the one that ...

Shade avoidance: phytochrome signalling and other aboveground neighbour detection cues

, 2014
Plants compete with neighbouring vegetation for limited resources. In competition for light, plants adjust their architecture to bring the leaves higher in the vegetation where more light is available than in the lower strata.

Effects of experimental snowmelt and rain on dispersal of six plant species

, 2016
Water flows affect dispersal of propagules of many plant species, and rivers and streams are therefore very important dispersal vectors. However, small water flows such as trough rain and snowmelt are much more common, but their effects on dispersal are ...
