Increasing leaf hydraulic conductance with transpiration rate minimizes the water potential drawdown from stem to leaf. [PDF]

, 2014
Leaf hydraulic conductance (k leaf) is a central element in the regulation of leaf water balance but the properties of k leaf remain uncertain. Here, the evidence for the following two models for k leaf in well-hydrated plants is evaluated: (i) k leaf is

Closing the nutrient loop between urban and rural areas: a case study analyzing the technical potential of recycling fertilizers from urban biorefineries

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The world's population is expected to grow rapidly, with the vast majority of people living in urban areas. Closing nutrient loops is therefore increasingly important for food security and environmental stability. In Germany however, the current treatment of organic and green waste and sewage sludge (derived from wastewater) includes ...

Tolerance of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) to imazethapyr [PDF]

Helia, 2008
SUMMARY The response of RIMI [imazethapyr-tolerant (T)] sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) hybrid and the local imazethapyr-sensitive hybrid "Zoltan" (S) was investigated under controlled conditions. Hybrids grown in pots were treated post-emergence with imazethapyr at the two pairs of leaves stage. Visual injury evaluation and vegetative parameters were

The pick of the plot: An evidence‐based approach for selecting and testing suitable plants to use in annual seed mixes to attract insect pollinators

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Concern regarding wild pollinator declines has increased motivation to plant pollinator‐friendly plants in gardens and urban areas, but ‘plants for pollinators’ recommendations are often anecdotal and inaccurate. Here, we use a scientific evidence base to design and test annual flowering seed mixes for bees and hoverflies.

A new way of valorizing biomaterials: the use of sunflower protein for 1 a-tocopherol microencapsulation [PDF]

, 2013
Biopolymer based microparticles were efficiently prepared from sunflower protein (SP) wall material and a-tocopherol (T) active core using a spray-drying technique. Protein enzymatic hydrolysis and/or N-acylation were carried out to make some structural
