Metazachlor effect on poplar – Pioneer plant species for riparian buffers
Chemosphere, 2021 Metazachlor belongs to one of the most used herbicides throughout the world. In order to prevent the contamination of water bodies by such herbicides, the riparian buffers are constructed. The selection of appropriate plant species for this purpose is necessary.

Bat assemblage and its frugivorous diet in a Eucalyptus plantation [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de CiênciasHabitat loss and fragmentation have enormous impacts on biodiversity and tree plantations can help alleviate these impacts. We study bat assemblage, as well as the diet of frugivorous bats in a managed Eucalyptus plantation of sustainable use in Rio ...

Effects of different pioneer and exotic species on the changes of degraded soils
Scientific Reports, 2022 AbstractSoil degradation resulting from deforestation contributes to a dramatic decline in soil quality whose restoration must go through reforestation with pioneer species. We investigated the effects of cypress and black locust, pioneer but exotic species, on soil chemical properties and microbial and enzymatic activities of two marginal soils.

Nutrient retranslocation in forest species in the Brazilian Amazon
Acta Scientiarum. Agronomy, 2016 Internal retranslocation is an important mechanism for nutrient conservation in plants, which depends on different factors. However, there are little data about this subject, especially on tropical forest species.

Microsatellite Analysis of Genetic Diversity in Indian Chicken Populations
The Journal of Poultry Science, 2007 Characterization of genetic diversity by employing molecular tools is a prerequisite in developing strategies for conservation and utilization of poultry genetic resources. We assessed genetic variation within and between six Indian chicken populations (

Drought resistance of native pioneer species indicates potential suitability for restoration of post-mining areas [PDF]
Web Ecology, 2015 In order to test whether invasive exotic species, predominantly used for restoring post-mining areas in north-eastern Vietnam, may be replaced by ecologically superior native pioneer species, we conducted a drought stress experiment in a greenhouse.

DNABERT-S: pioneering species differentiation with species-aware DNA embeddings [PDF]
BioinformaticsAbstract Summary We introduce DNABERT-S, a tailored genome model that develops species-aware embeddings to naturally cluster and segregate DNA sequences of different species in the embedding space. Differentiating species from genomic sequences (i.e.
