Plant Traits and Reproduction in a Multitrophic System: The Role of Aphids, Parasitoids and Hyperparasitoids

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 822-830, August 2026.
This field mesocosm study examined the top‐down effects of hyperparasitoids, parasitoids and aphids on plant growth and fitness. Parasitoids reduced aphid populations, but this effect was attenuated by hyperparasitoids. However, these multitrophic interactions did not affect plant traits and reproduction, likely due to the plant's fast life cycle and ...

Concurrent Temperature and Light Intensity Fluctuations Promote Stomatal Opening and Non‐Steady State Photosynthesis

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 5005-5021, August 2026.
ABSTRACT In nature, fluctuations in light intensity (FL) are tightly coupled to rapid changes in leaf temperature (Tleaf), yet the short‐term physiological effects of these concurrent drivers remain largely unresolved. Here, we combined rapid infrared induced Tleaf fluctuations with controlled step changes in light intensity for leaf gas exchange ...

Physiology and Transcriptomics Reveal Divergent Strategies of Mycorrhiza‐Mediated Drought Adaptation in Poplar

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 5078-5094, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Mycorrhizal symbiosis shapes plant growth and stress resilience. Here, we compared physiological and molecular responses of poplars (P. x canescens) colonised by Paxillus involutus (Pi) or Cenococcum geophilum (Cg) under control conditions, drought stress and recovery.

Influence of seedling age and plug size on maturity and seedling quality of onion (Allium cepa L.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
利用穴盤育苗的洋蔥無論在苗期或定植初期都比現行田間培育的45天苗有 較大的苗株,定植後有較佳的生長恢復性。採收時Granex 429穴盤苗有較 高的產量和球形整齊度,其結球始期較對照組約提早 5天,由葉重比可推 論穴盤育苗對Granex 429有促進早熟的效果,但是 Superex的穴盤苗與田 間培育的45天苗株在產量和早熟性上並沒有顯著的差異,只是45天的穴盤

Aboveground and Belowground Insect Herbivory Changes Maize‐Wireworm Interactions via Root Volatile Cues

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 5689-5702, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The rhizosphere harbours critical plant‐herbivore interactions often mediated by small lipophilic molecules (SLMs). Despite the agricultural importance of many soil‐dwelling insects, surprisingly little is known about chemically mediated belowground crop‐pest interactions. Root and shoot herbivores can influence these interactions by modifying

Effect of Root Plug Incorporated Controlled-Release Fertilizer upon Two-Year Survival, Growth and Nutrient Status of Planted Ponerosa Pine Seedlings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Three controlled-release fertilizers (fast release (FR), moderate release (MR) and slow release (SR)) were incorporated in the root plug at rates of0.8, 1.6 or 3.2 grams per seedling at the time of sowing as supplements to nursery supplied soluble ...

Organ‐specific terpenoid responses in Tanacetum vulgare are chemotype‐dependent

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 1437-1453, August 2026.
Common tansy varieties defend differently: some boost root chemicals against soil pests, while others release stronger leaf scents against aphids. Abstract Specialized metabolites such as terpenoids are known to mediate plant defence mechanisms. However, how terpenoid diversity governs inducible chemistry across organs remains poorly understood.
