Functional traits and root morphology of alpine plants [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2011 Vegetation has long been recognized to protect the soil from erosion. Understanding species differences in root morphology and functional traits is an important step to assess which species and species mixtures may provide erosion control. Furthermore, extending classification of plant functional types towards root traits may be a useful procedure in ...

Genome-Wide Association Study for Agro-Morphological Traits in Eggplant Core Collection
Plants, 2022 Eggplant is one of the most economically and nutritionally important vegetables worldwide. The study of the association of phenotypic traits with genetic factors is vital for the rapid and efficient identification and selection of eggplant genetic ...

QTL for tuber morphology traits in diploid potato [PDF]
Journal of Applied Genetics, 2018 A diploid, potato mapping population consisting of 149 individuals was assessed in three consecutive years for important agronomic and quality traits: tuber shape, regularity of tuber shape, eye depth, mean tuber weight, and tuber flesh color. Analysis of variance showed that the genotype had the largest influence on the phenotypic scores but effect of

Plasticity of Fine-Root Traits Under Long-Term Irrigation of a Water-Limited Scots Pine Forest
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Trait-based approaches are increasingly used to investigate plant strategies for resource acquisition, growth, or competition between individual organisms or across species. However, the characterization of responses to environmental stimuli by fine-root

A comparative study of the gastric ossicles of Trichodactylidae crabs (Brachyura: Decapoda) with comments on the role of diet and phylogeny in shaping morphological traits [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 The gastric armature of decapod foregut is a feeding structure that sparks controversial debates about the role dietary and historical components have in shaping its morphological traits.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...
