Interstock of ‘Valencia’ Orange Affects the Flooding Tolerance in ‘Verna’ Lemon Trees [PDF]
Previous work on citrus trees has shown that an interstock, grafted between the rootstock and scion combination, not only can improve tree growth, longevity, fruit production, and quality, but also can increase salinity tolerance. This research was designed to evaluate flooding responses of 2-year-old ‘Verna’ lemon trees [Citrus limon (L.) Burm.; VL ...

Researchers have identified a citrus chimera with distinctive tissue origins and carotenoid profiles. It is discovered that fruit tissues develop from all three cell layers but in different proportions. A key transcription factor, MYB107, regulates β‐cryptoxanthin production by directly activating carotenoid biosynthesis genes, explaining why some ...

SUMMARY For millennia, people have grafted plants to propagate them and to improve their traits. By cutting and joining different species or cultivars together, the best properties of shoot and roots are combined in one plant to increase yields, improve disease resistance, modify plant growth or enhance abiotic stress tolerance.

Spawning fish maintains trophic synchrony across time and space beyond thermal drivers
Abstract Increasing ocean temperature will speed up physiological rates of ectotherms. In fish, this is suggested to cause earlier spawning due to faster oocyte growth rates. Over time, this could cause spawning time to become decoupled from the timing of offspring food resources, a phenomenon referred to as trophic asynchrony. We used biological data,

Abstract Climate‐induced expansion of invasive hybridization (breeding between invasive and native species) poses a significant threat to the persistence of many native species worldwide. In the northern U.S. Rocky Mountains, hybridization between native cutthroat trout and non‐native rainbow trout has increased in recent decades due, in part, to ...

Selection of Interstocks for Dwarfing Japanese Persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb.) Trees
Effects of interstocks on the growth and fruit quality of ‘Fuyu’ Japanese persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb.) were investigated to select an effective dwarfing interstock of this species. The performance of four interstocks (Ac-1, Ac-2, Y clones, and a seedling of Diospyros rhombifolia) was evaluated in combination with ‘Aogaki’ (D.
