Mitochondrial acclimation potential to ocean acidification and warming of Polar cod (Boreogadus saida) and Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua)

Frontiers in Zoology, 2017
Background Ocean acidification and warming are happening fast in the Arctic but little is known about the effects of ocean acidification and warming on the physiological performance and survival of Arctic fish.

N-hydroxypipecolic acid primes plants for enhanced microbial pattern-induced responses

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
The bacterial elicitor flagellin induces a battery of immune responses in plants. However, the rates and intensities by which metabolically-related defenses develop upon flagellin-sensing are comparatively moderate.

UV-B radiation affects plant volatile emissions and shade avoidance responses [PDF]

, 2015
Plants detect and integrate an assortment of signals from their environment, and use these signals to maximise their performance by adjusting their growth and development as well as their secondary metabolite production.

The art of being flexible: how to escape from shade, salt and drought: The art of being flexible: how to excape from shade, salt and drought [PDF]

, 2014
Environmental stresses, such as shading of the shoot, drought, and soil salinity, threaten plant growth, yield, and survival. Plants can alleviate the impact of these stresses through various modes of phenotypic plasticity, such as shade avoidance and ...

Urban oases relax desiccation risk for an arid‐adapted lizard

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Urbanization from expanding human development has radically altered the structure, ecology and microclimate of landscapes worldwide. These dramatic environmental alterations subject organisms to novel ecological conditions and may select for distinct ecophysiological ...

Agrophysiological Characterization of Okra Ecotypes Under the Conditions of the Cool Dry Season in the Sudanian Zone of Burkina Faso

International Journal of Agronomy
We conducted an experiment at INERA Farako-Bâ (Bobo-Dioulasso) to identify okra (Abelmoschus esculentus [L.] Moench) ecotypes adapted to Burkina Faso’s cool, dry season. The experiment used 38 ecotypes collected in Togo and Burkina Faso.

Low Light Conditions Alter Genome-Wide Profiles of Circular RNAs in Rice Grains during Grain Filling

Plants, 2022
In animals and plants, circRNAs regulate gene expression and act as sponges that inhibit the activity of microRNAs. This study aimed to determine how specific circRNAs are expressed in rice grains at different stages of grain filling, under normal and ...

Genomics of Stress Escape in Arabidopsis Thaliana [PDF]

, 2016
In nature, two highly diverse environmental signals, flooding and shade, sensed through their own unique receptor systems, share physiological and molecular similarities in the context of accelerated shoot elongation in plants (a conserved stress-escape ...

Ecology of plant volatiles: taking a plant community perspective [PDF]

, 2014
Although plants are sessile organisms, they can modulate their phenotype so as to cope with environmental stresses such as herbivore attack and competition with neighbouring plants.

Beyond thermoregulation: Active behavioural regulation of ultraviolet light exposure by a free‐ranging lizard

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study provides a clear demonstration of active ultraviolet (UV) regulation in free‐ranging lizards and supports that microhabitat choice likely constrains UV regulation more than thermoregulation. Overall, it serves to establish UV as a parallel regulatory axis of physiological homeostasis and expand the range of testable hypotheses in animal ...
