Harnessing Microbial Agents to Improve Soil Health and Rice Yield Under Straw Return in Rice–Wheat Agroecosystems

Agriculture
We clarified the effect of wheat straw return combined with microbial agents on rice yield and soil properties. A field experiment was conducted using hybrid indica rice ‘Chuankangyou 2115’ and five treatments: no wheat straw return (T1), wheat straw ...

Bridging the gap between omics and earth system science to better understand how environmental change impacts marine microbes [PDF]

, 2015
The advent of genomic-, transcriptomic- and proteomic-based approaches has revolutionized our ability to describe marine microbial communities, including biogeography, metabolic potential and diversity, mechanisms of adaptation, and phylogeny and ...

An Overlooked Habitat‐Dependent Link Between Metabolism and Water Loss in Reptiles

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We measured the gas exchange of six lizard and six snake species, under high and low air humidity, and two intriguing patterns emerged. First, although desert species lose less water via evaporation than similar‐sized mesic species under similar conditions, water loss is virtually the same when each is exposed to its natural conditions.

Sugarcane nutrition under organomineral fertilizer, phosphate‐solubilizing bacteria, and reduced phosphate doses

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
Sugarcane phosphorus (P) availability is limited in tropical soils, requiring strategies to improve fertilizer efficiency. This study evaluated Bacillus velezensis UFV 3918 (Bv) in combination with an organomineral fertilizer (OF) at reduced monoammonium phosphate (MAP) doses. It showed that Bv + OF + 1/3 MAP achieved soil and plant P levels comparable

The effect of environmental factors on transepithelial potential in a model Amazonian teleost, the tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum): Implications for sodium balance in harsh environments

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum, G. Cuvier 1818) thrives both in the ion‐poor waters of the Amazon and in commercial aquaculture. In both, environmental conditions can be harsh due to low ion levels, occasional high salt challenges (in aquaculture), low pH, extreme PO2 levels (hypoxia and hyperoxia), high PCO2 levels (hypercapnia), high ...

Joint effects of elevated copper and temperature in juvenile Tambaqui exposed in black and white waters of the Amazon

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study aimed to investigate how exposure to elevated water temperature and metal concentration jointly affect the physiology of Amazonian fish. Aboard a research vessel in the Amazon, we evaluated the effects of water temperature (river T°C at 31.5°C and a + 4°C increase to 35.5°C) and of 3‐h copper (Cu) exposure (up to 600 μg/L) in ...

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.

The ecology of exercise: mechanisms underlying Individual variation in behavior, activity, and performance: an introduction to symposium [PDF]

, 2017
Wild animals often engage in intense physical activity while performing tasks vital for their survival and reproduction associated with foraging, avoiding predators, fighting, providing parental care, and migrating.
