Quantitative genetic analysis reveals potential to breed for improved white clover growth in symbiosis with nitrogen-fixing Rhizobium bacteria

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
White clover (Trifolium repens) is integral to mixed pastures in New Zealand and temperate agriculture globally. It provides quality feed and a sustainable source of plant-available nitrogen (N) via N-fixation through symbiosis with soil-dwelling ...

Effects of abandonment on plant diversity in seminatural grasslands along soil and climate gradients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Questions: What are the effects of abandonment on plant diversity in semi-natural grasslands? Do the effects of abandonment on taxonomic and functional diversity vary along environmental gradients of climate and soil?

Cliff top habitats provide important alternative feeding resources for wading birds of conservation importance wintering on non-estuarine coasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Rocky shores and beaches are important over-wintering areas for non-estuarine waders but have rarely been studied. We examined cliff top habitat use by 6 species of wader over 75 km of coast to assess their potential value as alternative feeding sites to

Vascular flora of calcareous outcrops in North-Western Sardinia (Italy) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Calcareous outcrops in North-Western Sardinia cover a large area (about 380 Km2) known as "Sassarese". In this study the vascular flora of this area is investigated.

Changes in plant species richness distribution in Tibetan alpine grasslands under different precipitation scenarios [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Species richness is the core of biodiversity-ecosystem functioning (BEF) research. Nevertheless, it is difficult to accurately predict changes in plant species richness under different climate scenarios, especially in alpine biomes.

Divergent Genomic Selection for Herbage Accumulation and Days-To-Heading in Perennial Ryegrass

open access: yesAgronomy, 2020
Increasing the rate of genetic gain for dry matter (DM) yield in perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.), which is a key source of nutrition for ruminants in temperate environments, is an important goal for breeders.

Self-assembled particulate vaccine elicits strong immune responses and reduces Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis infection in mice

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) causes chronic progressive granulomatous enteritis leading to diarrhoea, weight loss, and eventual death in ruminants.

Perennial grasslands and agroenvironmental programme effects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Farming on grasslands is an important part of organic faming. There is a perceptible trend of increasing acreages of grasslands in organic farming in the Czech republic too.

Ceased grazing management changes the ecosystem services of semi-natural grasslands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Understanding how drivers of change affect ecosystem services (ES) is of great importance. Indicators of ES can be developed based on biophysical measures and be used to investigate the service flow from ecosystems to socio-ecological systems.

Activation of ERBB4 Pathway Inhibits Pathological Transdifferentiation of Lung Epithelial Progenitors into CD66c+ Basal Cells in Severe Lung Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In fibrotic distal lung regions, CD66c+ basal cells emerge as a pathological state. Using human distal lung organoids, this study identifies CD66c+ basal cells as a pro‐fibrotic state arising through transdifferentiation from secretory, AT2, and basal cells.
