Inhibición Biológica de la Nitrificación (IBN) en tres sistemas ganaderos de Colombia [PDF]

, 2017
La intensificación de la agricultura requiere altas dosis de fertilizantes nitrogenados, los cuales son transformados en el suelo mediante procesos biológicos (nitrificación–denitrificación), donde se ocasionan pérdidas de nitrógeno en lixiviados de ...

Biochemical characterization of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinases from multiple species of brown algae

Journal of Phycology, Volume 61, Issue 5, Page 1321-1338, October 2025.
Abstract Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) is involved in the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to oxaloacetate (OAA). In addition to playing a role in gluconeogenesis in various organisms, PEPCK also functions in the C4 cycle to concentrate CO2 for photosynthesis in some C4 plants.

Unraveling the drivers of forage quality variation in the Serengeti

Ecology, Volume 106, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Variation in forage quality is a key dimension of herbivore resource partitioning, but the main determinants of such variation across environmental gradients remain poorly understood. It is especially unclear how much variation in plant nutrient contents and stoichiometry is driven by plant species turnover versus by intraspecific variation ...

Traits Associated With Local Extinctions of Native Plants in a Species‐Rich Urban Reserve

Applied Vegetation Science, Volume 28, Issue 3, July/September 2025.
A comprehensive resurvey of an urban reserve in Sydney failed to redetect 29% of native vascular plant species recorded from 1976 to 1992. Compared with persistent species, locally extinct species were shorter on average and more likely to have a graminoid habit and be water‐associated.

Temperature responses of Rubisco from Paniceae grasses provide opportunities for improving C3 photosynthesis. [PDF]

, 2016
Enhancing the catalytic properties of the CO2-fixing enzyme Rubisco is a target for improving agricultural crop productivity. Here, we reveal extensive diversity in the kinetic response between 10 and 37 °C by Rubisco from C3 and C4 species within the ...

Structural and productive responses of signalgrass and its association with leaf area index and light interception under silvopastoral or monoculture systems

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2025.
Abstract Silvopastoral systems (SPSs) have emerged as one of the most prominent alternatives for grassland recovery. We evaluated the structural and productive responses of signalgrass [Urochloa decumbens (Stapf.) R. D. Webster] and its association with leaf area index (LAI) and light interception (LI) measured with different equipment across different
