Imbalance Water Deficit Improves the Seed Yield and Quality of Soybean

Agronomy, 2018
Water imbalance condition (WIC) in a maize-soybean relay intercropping system is the main abiotic stress limiting biomass production and seed yield and, consequently, seed-quality.

Ecophysiology of Antarctic vascular plants

Physiologia Plantarum, 2002
Most of the ice and snow‐free land in the Antarctic summer is found along the Antarctic Peninsula and adjacent islands and coastal areas of the continent. This is the area where most of the Antarctic vegetation is found. Mean air temperature tends to be above zero during the summer in parts of the Maritime Antarctic.

De‐Coupled Water and Nitrogen Translocation From Subsoil to Canopy of Temperate Forest Trees

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water and nitrogen (N) transport from soil to canopy play a central role in tree functioning, yet direct evidence for their timing and coupling in mature forests remains scarce. We report results from a paired dual‐isotope (2H, 15N) tracer experiment in a temperate forest, comparing water and nitrate uptake patterns across tree species ...

Non-invasive quantification of cardiac stroke volume in the edible crab Cancer pagurus

Frontiers in Zoology, 2019
Background Brachyuran crabs can effectively modulate cardiac stroke volume independently of heart rate in response to abiotic drivers. Non-invasive techniques can help to improve the understanding of cardiac performance parameters of these animals.

Cuticular Waxes in Altered Environments and Their Role in Leaf Water Loss Dynamics

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cuticular waxes undeniably form the primary barrier restricting uncontrolled water loss from leaves, yet the functional consequences of environmentally induced wax modifications for residual (cuticular) transpiration remain a matter of debate. This review summarises current knowledge on how major abiotic stimuli influence foliar cuticular wax ...

Bark‐associated yeasts and their potential role as tree carbon sink at the treeline of the southern Andes

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In the southern Andes, Nothofagus pumilio shows elevational decreases in the concentrations of carbon reserves which are the food of bark‐associated yeasts, suggesting that competition for carbohydrates between tree growth and bark‐associated yeasts may cause carbon shortages.

Biocrust restoration in novel climates: assisted migration, habitat amelioration, and varied community composition as climate‐smart techniques

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Successful restoration of terrestrial drylands depends on stable, fertile soils that retain water. These functions are provided by biological soil crusts (biocrust), suggesting their reestablishment is a critical step in dryland restoration.

Effects of Planting Density and Nitrogen Management on Light and Nitrogen Resource Utilization Efficiency and Yield of Summer Maize in the Sichuan Hilly Region

Agronomy
The low efficiency of light and nitrogen resources, poor yield and profit, and environmental pollution of maize production are main problems in many areas of China.

Root trait dynamics of historical canola varieties under low and high nitrogen supply

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Nitrogen fertilizer is a major input cost in crop production, making it crucial to enhance nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) to reduce fertilizer dependence without compromising yields. Root system architecture (RSA) is a key determinant of nutrient acquisition, particularly under nutrient‐limited conditions.

PlantCV v4: Image analysis software for high‐throughput plant phenotyping

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract PlantCV is an open‐source Python project aimed at developing tools to address a range of image‐based, plant phenotyping questions. PlantCV has been used for more than 10 years to automate trait collection from image data, and the newest release, PlantCV version 4, continues to lower the barrier to entry for users without substantial coding ...
