Nitrogen reduction combined with ETc irrigation maintained summer maize yield and increased water and nitrogen use efficiency [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionHigh rainfall and excessive urea application are counterproductive to summer maize growth requirements and lower grain yield and water/nitrogen (N) use efficiency.

The near-optimal adjustment of carbon and nitrogen allocations into different organs in early-season rice cultivars with drastically different yield components under nitrogen application [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionOptimized photosynthesis and transport of photosynthate from the upper three leaves in a rice plant is critical for yield formation in rice.MethodsIn this study, we selected two high-yielding early-season rice cultivars, i.e.

Dynamic Analysis of Photosynthate Translocation Into Strawberry Fruits Using Non-invasive 11C-Labeling Supported With Conventional Destructive Measurements Using 13C-Labeling

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
In protected strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) cultivation, environmental control based on the process of photosynthate translocation is essential for optimizing fruit quality and yield, because the process of photosynthate translocation directly ...

Photosynthate distribution determines spatial patterns in the rhizosphere microbiota of the maize root system [PDF]

Nature Communications
The spatial variation and underlying mechanisms of pattern formation in the rhizosphere microbiome are not well understood. We demonstrate that specific patterns in the distribution of recently fixed carbon within the plant root system influence the ...

Response of Summer Maize Photosynthate Accumulation and Distribution to Shading Stress Assessed by Using 13CO2 Stable Isotope Tracer in the Field

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Maize is one of the most important crops globally that provides food, feed, and bioenergy. However, shading stress threatens maize production. In this study, we investigated the effects of shading on photosynthate accumulation and distribution of summer ...

Determination of the phloem transport pathways and destination of photosynthates in soybean using autoradiography and fluorescent tracer imaging [PDF]

Plant Signaling & Behavior
Vascular tissues transport water and nutrients in plants, with the phloem distributing photosynthates from source to sink. The direction of phloem transport is determined by the positional relationship between sources and sinks and by vascular ...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal diversity increases across a plant productivity gradient driven by soil nitrogen availability [PDF]

Plant-Environment Interactions
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are widespread obligate symbionts of plants. This dynamic symbiosis plays a large role in successful plant performance, given that AMF help to ameliorate plant responses to abiotic and biotic stressors.

Using Transcript Levels of Nitrate Transporter 2 as Molecular Indicators to Estimate the Potentials of Nitrate Transport in Symbiodinium, Cladocopium, and Durusdinium of the Fluted Giant Clam, Tridacna squamosa

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Giant clams are important ecosystem engineers of coral reefs because they harbor large quantities of phototrophic Symbiodiniaceae dinoflagellates of mainly genera Symbiodinium, Cladocopium, and Durusdinium.

Symbiotic Dinoflagellates of the Giant Clam, Tridacna squamosa, Express Ammonium Transporter 2 at the Plasma Membrane and Increase Its Expression Levels During Illumination

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Giant clams harbor dinoflagellates generally of the three genera (Symbiodinium, Cladocopium, and Durusdinium) of phototrophic Symbiodiniaceae. Coccoid dinoflagellates (alias zooxanthellae) are found mainly inside zooxanthellal tubules located in the ...
