Effects of physiological integration on nitrogen use efficiency of moso bamboo in homogeneous and heterogeneous environments [PDF]
IntroductionMoso bamboo is one of the important clonal plants with complex underground rhizome-root system. Ramets connected by rhizome can translocate and share nitrogen (N), which may affect the nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) of moso bamboo. The aims of

Clonal dominant grass Leymus chinensis benefits more from physiological integration in sexual reproduction than its main companions in a meadow [PDF]
The bioecological characteristics of plants determine their status and role in the community. The advantages of dominant species in the community compared with companion species in terms of physiological and ecological characteristics remain unclear ...

Physiological Integration Increases Sexual Reproductive Performance of the Rhizomatous Grass Hierochloe glabra [PDF]
Clonal plants usually reproduce asexually through vegetative propagation and sexually by producing seeds. Physiological integration, the translocation of essential resources between ramets, usually improves vegetative reproduction.

Parental effects of physiological integration on growth of a clonal herb [PDF]
Although numerous studies have independently tested the roles of physiological integration and parental effects on the performance of clonal plant species, few have assessed them simultaneously.

Detection of a novel, integrative aging process suggests complex physiological integration. [PDF]
Many studies of aging examine biomarkers one at a time, but complex systems theory and network theory suggest that interpretations of individual markers may be context-dependent.

Neural substrates for sharing intention in action during face-to-face imitation
Face-to-face imitation is a unique social interaction wherein a shared action is executed based on the feedback of the partner. Imitation by the partner is the feedback to the imitatee's action, resulting in sharing actions.

Frequency-specific task modulation of human brain functional networks: A fast fMRI study
How coherent neural oscillations are involved in task execution is a fundamental question in neuroscience. Although several electrophysiological studies have tackled this issue, the brain-wide task modulation of neural coherence remains uncharacterized ...
