MRI in soils: determination of water concent changes due to root water uptake by means of a multi-slice-multi-echo sequence (MSME) [PDF]
Root water uptake by ricinus communis (castor bean) in fine sand was investigated using MRI with multiecho sampling. Before starting the experiments the plants germinated and grew for 3 weeks in a cylindrical container with a diameter of 9 cm ...

ABSTRACT From blood‐sucking lice and food‐stealing gulls to pandemic‐inducing viruses and egg‐eating snakes: parasites and predators are ubiquitous in shaping ecology and evolution. Fundamental to these interactions is the way in which parasites and predators choose their victim. Here, I argue that a trade‐off between host quality and vulnerability can

Allee Effects May Slow the Spread of Parasites in a Coastal Marine Ecosystem [PDF]
Allee effects are thought to mediate the dynamics of population colonization, particularly for invasive species. However, Allee effects acting on parasites have rarely been considered in the analogous process of infectious disease establishment and ...

Hypoxia‐activated fluorescent probes as markers of oxygen levels in plant cells and tissues
Summary Low oxygen signalling in plants is important in development and stress responses. Measurement of oxygen levels in plant cells and tissues is hampered by a lack of chemical tools with which to reliably detect and quantify endogenous oxygen availability.
