Linear response to perturbation of non-exponential renewal processes [PDF]
We study the linear response of a two-state stochastic process, obeying renewal condition, by means of a stochastic rate equation equivalent to a master equation with infinite memory. We show that the condition of perennial aging makes the response to coherent perturbation vanish in the long-time limit.

Fungal alkaloid occurrence during seedling establishment and early growth in Lolium perenne seedlings infected with Epichloë festucae var. lolii and the influence of adult Argentine stem weevil (Listronotus bonariensis) feeding on alkaloid concentrations : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science (MSc) in Agriculture Science at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Fungal endophytes of the genus Epichloë often form stable, symbiotic, and mutualistic relationships with grasses of the Pooideae, including perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.).

ABSTRACT This research examines rock art and dendroglyphs in the Wet Tropics of northeast Australia to investigate their relationship to linguistic social identity. The region was selected for its complex socio‐cultural landscape, marked by a diversity of languages in a distinct, relatively small area.

Plant species accumulation curves are determined by evenness and spatial aggregation in drylands worldwide [PDF]
Species accumulation curves (SAC), i.e. the relationship between species richness and the number of sampling units in a given community, can be used to describe diversity patterns while accounting for the well-known scale-dependence of species richness.

Wild Bee Conservation within Urban Gardens and Nurseries: Effects of Local and Landscape Management [PDF]
Across urban environments, vegetated habitats provide refuge for biodiversity. Gardens (designed for food crop production) and nurseries (designed for ornamental plant production) are both urban agricultural habitats characterized by high plant species ...

Soil resources derived from mutualistic arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) play a critical role in the physiological function of many native plant species. Allelopathic plant invasion studies have revealed declines in AMF inoculation potential of invaded

Effects of cutting frequency on plant production, N-uptake and N2 fixation in harvested and below-harvest plant biomass of grass clover [PDF]
Nitrogen (N) accumulating in stubble, stolons and roots is an important component in N balances in perennial ryegrass-white clover swards, and the effects of cutting frequency on the biomass of above- and below-harvest height were studied during two ...

Abstract The industrial production of citric acid, an ingredient in beverages, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics, is based on microbial fermentation of glucose or sucrose. Given the elevated cost of these sugars, lignocellulosic biomass is emerging as a cost‐effective and environmentally friendly feedstock for sustainable bioprocesses.
