PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Asian elephants play crucial roles in ecosystem functioning, and their interactions with plants influence above‐ and belowground carbon cycling. We tested whether their mechanically destructive foraging triggers short‐term, stress‐induced shifts in tree root exudation, an underappreciated pathway linking herbivory to belowground carbon processes.

Uptake of glycine by non‐mycorrhizal Lolium perenne [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2001 Plants of Lolium perenne were grown in sterile solution culture. 15N-labelled glycine (Gly) coupled with gas chromatograph mass spectrometry was used to prove that non-mycorrhizal plants of L. perenne are capable of acquiring N in the form of intact Gly.
