Risk assessment for Birds and Mammals
EFSA Journal, Volume 21, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023 Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA to revise the Guidance on the risk assessment for birds and mammals. That guidance described how to perform risk assessment for birds and mammals from plant protection products, containing pesticide active substances, in accordance with Regulation (EU) 1107/2009.

Controlled freezing studies as a corollary selection method for winterhardiness in perennial flax
Crop Science, Volume 62, Issue 5, Page 1734-1757, September/October 2022., 2022 Abstract Perennial flax (Linum spp.) breeding objectives at the University of Minnesota (UMN) are to develop agronomic (oilseed, fiber) and horticultural (cut flower, garden perennial) varieties that are hardy in Minnesota (USDA Plant Hardiness Zones 3 and 4).

Can omic tools help generate alternative newer sources of edible seed oil?
Plant Direct, Volume 6, Issue 6, June 2022., 2022 Abstract There are three pathways for triacylglycerol (TAG) biosynthesis: De novo TAG biosynthesis, phosphatidylcholine‐derived biosynthesis, and cytosolic TAG biosynthesis. Variability in fatty acid composition is mainly associated with phosphatidylcholine‐derived TAG pathway. Mobilization of TAG‐formed through cytosolic pathway into lipid droplets is

Using δ15N to screen for nitrogen fixation: Reference plant position and species
Agronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 3, Page 1842-1850, May/June 2022., 2022 Abstract The δ15N natural abundance technique is frequently used to quantify the proportion of legume nitrogen derived from atmospheric fixation (%Ndfa). This method compares the δ15N of a legume with a nonlegume reference plant to estimate the %Ndfa. For accurate estimations, it is recommended to pair each legume plot with a nonlegume reference plant ...

Journal of Ecology, Volume 109, Issue 5, Page 2219-2233, May 2021., 2021 In a study of 43 plant species, the most consistent response to density was an increase in the proportion of biomass allocated to roots, suggesting that intraspecific competition was mainly for below‐ground resources. Our results further show that growth conditions, species characteristics and their interactions influence patterns of biomass allocation

TAXON, Volume 70, Issue 2, Page 365-428, April 2021., 2021 Abstract In 1814, A.W. Roth received a herbarium collection of some 1500 plants from Benjamin Heyne. Most of these specimens came from southern India where Heyne had worked as a doctor and naturalist since 1792. Roth wrote up the material in his book Novae plantarum, which was published in 1821.

Intrusive growth of sclerenchyma fibers [PDF]
, 2010 Intrusive growth is a type of cell elongation when the rate of its longitudinal growth is higher than that of surrounding cells; therefore, these cells intrude between the neighboring cells penetrating the middle lamella.

Litter decomposes slowly on shaded steep slope and sunny gentle slope in a typical steppe ecoregion
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 6, Page 2461-2470, March 2021., 2021 Soil temperature and moisture, solar radiation, and plant species diversity varied by terrain (i.e., slope incline and directional aspect), which in turn, affected the litter mass loss and release of carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus. Abstract Plant litter decomposition is mainly affected by litter properties and environmental factors, but the influence
