Enhanced Photosynthetic Capacity, Osmotic Adjustment and Antioxidant Defenses Contribute to Improve Tolerance to Moderate Water Deficit and Recovery of Triploid Citrus Genotypes [PDF]
Currently, drought stress is a major issue for crop productivity, and future climate models predict a rise in frequency and severity of drought episodes. Polyploidy has been related to improved tolerance of plants to environmental stresses.

Triploidy in Citrus Genotypes Improves Leaf Gas Exchange and Antioxidant Recovery From Water Deficit [PDF]
The triploidy has proved to be a powerful approach breeding programs, especially in Citrus since seedlessness is one of the main consumer expectations. Citrus plants face numerous abiotic stresses including water deficit, which negatively impact growth ...

Triploid Citrus Genotypes Have a Better Tolerance to Natural Chilling Conditions of Photosynthetic Capacities and Specific Leaf Volatile Organic Compounds [PDF]
Low temperatures during winter are one of the main constraints for citrus crop. Polyploid rootstocks can be used for improving tolerance to abiotic stresses, such as cold stress.

Adaptive variation for growth and resistance to a novel pathogen along climatic gradients in a foundation tree. [PDF]
Abstract Natural ecosystems are under pressure from increasing abiotic and biotic stressors, including climate change and novel pathogens, which are putting species at risk of local extinction, and altering community structure, composition and function.

Geophysical Signature of the Ellendale Lamproite Pipes, Western Australia
The Ellendale lamproite diatremes are located in the West Kimberley 125 km east-southeast of Derby. They are of Miocene age and occur in Lennard Shelf sedimentary rocks which overlie the King Leopold intracratonic Mobile Zone. The Ellendale province was discovered by the Ashton Joint Venture during stream sampling of the West Kimberley in 1976.

Abstract Since its accidental introduction into New Zealand in 1916, the invasive eucalypt leaf beetle Paropsis charybdis remains a pest of economic significance to Eucalyptus forestry. For this reason, the braconid parasitoid Eadya daenerys has been approved for release as a classical biological control agent.

Parthenocarpy and Self-Incompatibility in Mandarins
Citrus reproductive biology is complex. One of its characteristic features is parthenocarpy that enables seedless fruit production. Citrus parthenocarpy and self-incompatibility knowledge is only partial and sometimes discrepant.
