The legacy of past droughts induces water‐sparingly behaviour in Grüner Veltliner grapevines

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Grapevines with a drought history showed increased water use efficiency in a non‐water‐limited season, in coordination with morpho‐anatomical modifications of leaf, xylem anatomy and stomata, suggesting significant drought legacies. Abstract Drought is becoming more frequent and severe in numerous wine‐growing regions.

New Composite, Poly(Hydroxyethylmethacrylate-Expanded Perlite), for Single step Separation of Egg White Lysozyme

Cumhuriyet Science Journal, 2018
In this study, weinvestigated adsorption behaviour of lysozyme on poly(hydroxyethylmethacrylate-expandedperlite) [P(Hema-Ep)]. For this purpose, we synthesized P(Hema-Ep) composite bybulk polymerization and it was characterized by SEM, FTIR and ...

Legacies from early‐season hot drought: how growth cessation alters tree water dynamics and modifies stress responses in Scots pine

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Early‐season hot drought in Scots pine limits growth and productivity but improves resilience to late‐season drought through reduced water use. Abstract Tree responses to drought are well studied, but the interacting effects of drought timing on growth, water use, and stress legacy are less understood.

A dynamic epigenetic perspective on above‐ and belowground phenotypic responses to drought: Insights from global DNA methylation in Erodium cicutarium

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Our factorial experimental design investigates the relationships between DNA methylation, plant development and individual fitness under stress in Erodium cicutarium. We found that epigenetic modifications associated to 5‐azacytidine seed treatment desynchronized plant growth and delayed flowering.

Knappable lithic resources of North-Western Romania: A mineralogical study

Journal of Lithic Studies, 2014
The purpose of this study is to identify and characterise some of the raw materials in NW Romania which have been suggested as having been used for knapping tools. The materials cropping out in this area include jasper, chalcedony, and perlite. The basic

From leaves to defenders: How the amount and dispersion of leaf damage affect extrafloral nectar production and ant‐mediated protection in wild cotton

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 395-404, April 2026.
Extrafloral nectar mediates interactions among plants, ants and herbivores; its contingency on damage amount and within‐plant uniformity is poorly understood. Here, we explore these factors in wild cotton (Gossypium hirsutum). Herbivory amount drove increases in extrafloral nectar induction per nectary, whereas within‐plant variability in damage ...

Evaluating harvest aids for soybean desiccation, yield, and seed quality in the northern United States

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Application of harvest aids to desiccate soybean [Glycine Max (L.) Merr.] is one method proposed to limit harvest delays from variable fall weather patterns in the northern United States. Field research was conducted over 4 site‐years in Michigan to evaluate the effect of two preharvest desiccation timings (early, label) of the harvest aids ...

Semiquantitative Analysis of Phase Evolution and Viscosity in Perlite

International Journal of Ceramic Engineering &Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, March 2026.
XRD spectra of raw perlite powder (particle size <44 µm) with 10 wt.% ZnO added as an internal standard for semiquantitative analysis. ABSTRACT Perlite is a noncrystalline volcanic rock with rhyolitic composition that expands four to 20 times its original volume when heated, forming a porous structure widely used in filtration, catalysis, and ...

Evolutionary and Functional Characterization of an Auxin Methyltransferase (CsIAMT) in Cucumber Reveals Its Role in Stress Adaptation and Development

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
The plant SABATH methyltransferase family drives phenotypic diversity evolution through gene duplication and new functionalization. Among them, IAMT, as the most ancient member of this family, is widely present in various species. The study identified a potential auxin methyltransferase homologous to IAMT (CsIAMT) in cucumber, which can catalyze IAA ...

Tree Cultivation in Hydroponic Systems: Effects of Substrate Type and Electrical Conductivity on Nutrient Status and Growth in Soilless Fig Tree

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
The fig tree has traditionally been cultivated in open fields for its fruit. However, recent advancements have enabled the cultivation of fruit trees in greenhouses. This study investigates the effects of hydroponic cultivation of fig trees, focusing on growth parameters and nutritional status under two substrates, coconut coir and pumice, and three ...
