Grassland management and helminth control on cattle farms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Farmers manage their pastures and grazing animals primarily to ensure that swards provide adequate, quality nutrients to support animal performance, but it is also possible to provide useful levels of parasite control without compromising production.

Uncovering latent structure in valued graphs: A variational approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
As more and more network-structured data sets are available, the statistical analysis of valued graphs has become common place. Looking for a latent structure is one of the many strategies used to better understand the behavior of a network.

Nematodes enhance plant growth and nutrient uptake under C and N-rich conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The role of soil fauna in crucial ecosystem services such as nutrient cycling remains poorly quantified, mainly because of the overly reductionistic approach adopted in most experimental studies.

Horizontal gene transfer contributes to plant evolution : the case of Agrobacterium T-DNAs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) can be defined as the acquisition of genetic material from another organism without being its offspring. HGT is common in the microbial world including archaea and bacteria, where HGT mechanisms are widely understood and ...

Biological characteristics of Punctularia atropurpurascens through morphological and molecular analyses during development

open access: yesItalian Journal of Mycology, 2019
In this study, further evidences of the presence of the (sub)tropical Punctularia atropurpurascens in Rome are reported. Besides its generally described saprotrophic behaviour, some of the new-found specimens revealed a parasitic ability of the fungus ...

Two Entomophagous Isolated From Sumatera Utara; Potential as Biocontrol Agent Againts Nematode [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Two species of nematophagous fungi has been isolated from Sumatera Utara soil, with an aim of harnessing their potential in the biological control of plant parasitic nematodes or animal parasitic nematodes in Indonesia, especially in Sumatera Utara. Soil

Strigolactones stimulate arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi by activating mitochondria.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2006
The association of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi with plant roots is the oldest and ecologically most important symbiotic relationship between higher plants and microorganisms, yet the mechanism by which these fungi detect the presence of a plant ...

Notes on Wisconsin Parasitic Fungi. XII.

open access: yesAmerican Midland Naturalist, 1944
Asclepias sullivantii bore sterile, black, friable, carbonaceous growths on the living leaves. The growths are 2-5 mm. diam., and amphigenous in the sense that they extend entirely through the leaf. They are slightly elevated, somewhat flattened, and zonate in the case of the larger ones.
