Climatic, edaphic, and biotic controls over storage and turnover of carbon in soils [PDF]
, 1994 Soil carbon, a major component of the global carbon inventory, has significant potential for change with changing climate and human land use. We applied the Century ecosystem model to a series of forest and grassland sites distributed globally to examine

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Climate change‐driven heat and drought stresses during reproductive stages significantly threaten wheat productivity. To investigate the genetic and physiological basis of combined heat–drought (HD) tolerance, we evaluated 345 wheat genotypes under three environments of HD stresses, non‐stress glasshouse conditions and a late‐sowing field ...

A meta-analysis of crop response patterns to nitrogen limitation for improved model representation.
PLoS ONE, 2019 The representation of carbon-nitrogen (N) interactions in global models of the natural or managed land surface remains an important knowledge gap. To improve global process-based models we require a better understanding of how N limitation affects ...

Distribution of recently fixed photosynthate in a switchgrass plant-soil system
Plant, Soil and Environment, 2012 The use of switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) as an energy crop has gained great importance in past two decades due to its high biomass yields on marginal lands with low agricultural inputs and low maintenance requirements.

Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Coral–dinoflagellate symbiosis underpins the evolutionary success of corals reefs. Successful exchange of molecules between the cnidarian host and the Symbiodiniaceae algae enables the mutualistic partnership. The algae translocate photosynthate to their

Ectomycorrhizal fungi and past high CO2 atmospheres enhance mineral weathering through increased below-ground carbon-energy fluxes [PDF]
, 2014 Field studies indicate an intensification of mineral weathering with advancement from arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) to later-evolving ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungal partners of gymnosperm and angiosperm trees.

Plant Biology, EarlyView.Arbuscular mycorrhiza responsiveness varies strongly among Petunia species and RILs, representing a genetically determined trait with breeding potential that is nonetheless strongly modulated by environmental conditions. Abstract Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi enhance plant nutrition and stress tolerance, yet their agricultural use remains limited ...

Optimization of a simple, accurate and low cost method for starch quantification in green microalgae
Botanical Studies, 2019 Background Lipids and starch are important feedstocks for bioenergy production. Genetic studies on the biosyntheses of lipids and starch in green microalgae have drawn significant attention recently. In these studies, quantifications of lipids and starch

Biosynthesis of Photosynthates and Taxonomy of Algae
Zeitschrift für Naturforschung C, 1982 The representatives of the major algal divisions including Chlorophyta, Rhodophyta and Heterokontophyta usually show specific patterns of accumulated photoassimilatory products. Among these compounds, the accumulated low-molecular weight carbohydrates such as monosaccharides, disaccharides, alditols (i.e.

On the tree-root-soil-continuum - temporal and spatial coupling of the belowground carbon flux [PDF]
, 2007 The direct flux of current assimilates from the tree canopy to the belowground compartment drives roughly half of the soil respiratory activity in boreal forests.
