Proximity of breeding and foraging areas affects foraging effort of a crepuscular, insectivorous bird [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2018
AbstractWhen complementary resources are required for an optimal life cycle, most animals need to move between different habitats. However, the level of connectivity between resources can vary and, hence, influence individuals’ behaviour. We show that landscape composition and configuration affect the connectivity between breeding (heathlands) and ...

Incorporating leys in arable systems as a mitigation strategy to reduce soil organic carbon losses during land-use change

Frontiers in Environmental Science
The intensification of dairy and biogas production in Northwestern Europe has led to the conversion of permanent grasslands to arable land, mainly for silage maize production, resulting in significant soil organic carbon (SOC) losses, highlighting the ...

Relationship of quantitative traits in different morphotypes of pea (Pisum sativum L.)

Journal of BioScience and Biotechnology, 2018
Studying the relationships between main quantitative traits gives an opportunity the results of selection on certain traits to be predicted and the breeding process to be improved.

Estimation of the environment as background for selection on adaptivity in white lupine breeding

Journal of BioScience and Biotechnology, 2017
A representative evaluation of the breeding value of genotypes in the development of varieties with general and specific adaptability is possible using special features of nature background, which often do not coincide in informativity regarding the ...

Inheritance of main quantitative traits in broad bean (Vicia faba L.)

Journal of BioScience and Biotechnology, 2019
The purpose of this study was to analyze the values of some genetic parameters of hybrid populations of Vicia faba, which would allow rational selection of desired genotypes in terms of main quantitative traits.

Phytochrome B integrates jasmonic acid and warm temperature signaling pathways to regulate cotyledon chloroplast development

Nature Communications
Chloroplast biogenesis and development are coordinated by both endogenous factors and environmental cues. The interplay between jasmonic acid (JA) and temperature in regulating chloroplast development remains poorly understood.

Drought and Desertification in Iran

Hydrology, 2019
Iran has different climatic and geographical zones (mountainous and desert areas), mostly arid and semi-arid, which are suffering from land degradation. Desertification as a land degradation process in Iran is created by natural and anthropogenic driving
