A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Examining the Impact of Coal Contamination on Soil Structural and Moisture Properties: A Comparative Study of Coal-Free and Coal-Impacted Soils

open access: yesLand
Soil porosity and moisture are critical indicators of soil quality. In coal–grain intercropping areas, centuries of coal industry activities have resulted in coal particle contamination, which has affected soil properties; however, its impact on soil ...

Water Availability and Hydraulic Strategies Control Leaf Thermoregulation and Damage During Heat Stress and Recovery in Temperate Tree Species

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
Abstract Heatwaves are intensifying worldwide, often coinciding with high vapour pressure deficit (VPD) and soil drought. Yet, how temperate tree species tolerate these combined stresses remains elusive. Using single‐tree gas‐exchange chambers, we examined the response of leaf gas exchange and thermoregulation of three broadleaved tree species to a ...

Resisting Xylella fastidiosa: xylem anatomical changes in the susceptible olive cultivar Cellina di Nardò after long‐term infection

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
After long‐term infection, the susceptible O. europaea cultivar Cellina di Nardò modified its wood anatomical traits as an adaptive response to counteract Xylella fastidiosa, exhibiting spontaneous canopy restoration. Abstract The Xylella fastidiosa subsp.

Analysis of growth and wilting point of chili (Capsicum annum L.) seedlings using three types of planting media

open access: yes
Cayenne pepper plants are one of the plants that are susceptible to excess and lack of water during their growth period. Lack of water can cause chili seeds to not grow optimally, so chili plant nurseries need ideal media to be able to provide optimal ...

Quantification of Available Water Content Comparing Standard Methods and the Pedostructure Concept on Four Different Soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of the pedostructure soil concept to determine the available water within soil. Specifically, the hydro-structural behavior of the soil in the pedostructure is compared to standard methods of determining ...

Rapid disruption of pollination function by the invasive plant Impatiens glandulifera

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Invasion by Impatiens glandulifera rapidly disrupts pollination of the native plant Stachys sylvatica by altering pollen transport by shared bumblebee pollinators. A short‐term field introduction revealed a dramatic decline in conspecific pollen deposition within 4 days, showing that pollination function can collapse quickly following invasion, even ...
