Postharvest jasmonic acid and methyl jasmonate dip treatments alleviate chilling injury and maintain quality of cold‐stored ‘Black Amber’ and ‘Tegan Blue’ Japanese plums (Prunus salicina Lindell)

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Chilling injury (CI) in Japanese plums (Prunus salicina Lindell) is a critical cold storage constraint that adversely impacts fruit quality and marketability. Jasmonic acid (JA) and its methyl derivative ‘methyl jasmonate’ (MeJA) are widely studied phytohormones for the mitigation of CI in several fruit crops, whereas their efficacy

Spent Pleurotus substrate as organic fertilizer to improve yield and soil fertility: the case of baby leaf lettuce production

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Spent mushrooms substrate is the most important waste generated by edible mushrooms industry and can be re‐used as organic fertilizer, following sustainable production principles. In the present study, Spent Pleurotus substrate (SPS) was used for organic fertilization of baby leaf production during two consecutive cycles (1st ...

Dietary inclusion of raw potato or high‐amylose‐corn resistant starches fed for different durations: impact on phenotypic responses and indicators of gut health of broiler chickens

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND This 21‐day study evaluated the effects of feeding durations of graded levels (RSL) of raw potato starch (RPS) or high amylose corn starch (HCS) on growth performance, energy utilization and intestinal biochemical metrics in broiler chickens.

Cropping History and Cropland Abandonment Period Influenced Levels of Soil Organic Carbon, Distribution of Aggregates and Aggregate Associated Carbon

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Knowledge gaps remain regarding soil organic carbon (SOC) storage and aggregate dynamics under varying cropland abandonment periods, particularly within the context of degraded and low‐SOC soils. This study aimed to assess the influence of cropping history and the period of cropland abandonment period on SOC, aggregate distribution, and ...

Temporal evolution of plankton and particles distribution across a mesoscale front during the spring bloom

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract The effect of mesoscale features on the distribution of planktonic organisms are well documented. Yet, the interaction between these spatial features and the temporal scale, which can result in sudden increases of the planktonic biomass, is less known and not described at high resolution.

Nutrient‐dependent thermal response in growth and stoichiometry of Antarctic phytoplankton

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Rising temperatures and altered nutrient supply are expected to influence future phytoplankton thermal performance and community dynamics. The thermal response of phytoplankton has been shown to be influenced by nutrient availability, but information is still limited, particularly for the coastal Southern Ocean.

Nutrient inversion but not warming drive changes in periphyton biomass and composition in shallow lake mesocosms

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Periphyton plays an important functional role in shallow lakes and is sensitive to variation in nutrient availability and global warming. Understanding the responses of periphyton to changes in nutrient availability in contrasting warming scenarios can contribute to the development of more efficient techniques for the restoration of lakes in a

Contrasting functional responses of benthic and hyporheic stream biofilms to light availability and macronutrient stoichiometry

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Nutrient dynamics in headwater streams are governed by benthic and hyporheic biofilms, with carbon (C) : nitrogen (N) : phosphorus (P) ratios driving the heterotrophic microbial biofilm development through nutrient limitation. Furthermore, heterotrophic responses to changes in C : N : P ratios are probably modulated by autotrophic responses to

Hydrology mediates salt marsh belowground biomass response to warming

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Salt marshes provide vital ecosystem services, including coastal protection and carbon sequestration. Roots play a key role in delivering these ecosystem services, as they stabilize soils and contribute to organic carbon accumulation. This study examines the impact of an experimental 3°C temperature increase in a temperate salt marsh on ...
