Root traits are multidimensional: specific root length is independent from root tissue density and the plant economic spectrum [PDF]

Journal of Ecology, 2016
Summary Root, stem and leaf traits are thought to be functionally coordinated to maximize the efficiency of acquiring and using limited resources. However, evidence is mixed for consistent whole‐plant trait coordination among woody plants, and we lack a clear understanding of the adaptive value of root traits along soil resource gradients.

Increased Electron Density of Tonoplast Membranes in Washed Corn Root Tissue [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 1973
Washing corn (Zea mays L.) root segments for 4 hours results in increased tonoplast electron density in fixed and stained tissue. It suggested that previously reported increases in solute absorption rate with root tissue washing may lie with changes in the properties of the tonoplast.

Investigating the Role and Response of Root Groups of Hordeum vulgare subsp. spontaneum Germplasm to Drought Stress [PDF]

Plant-Environment Interactions
Hordeum vulgare subsp. spontaneum, the wild progenitor of cultivated barley, shares the same chromosome number with domesticated forms and exhibits no significant biological barriers to interspecies crossing.

Associations of Muscle and Adipose Tissue with Bone Mineral Density in Premenopausal and Postmenopausal Women Undergoing Physical Examination [PDF]

Zhongguo quanke yixue, 2023
Background The associations of muscle and adipose tissue with bone mineral density (BMD) in perimenopausal women has been studied, but there are differences in site distribution, which lead to that the effect of muscle and adipose tissue on BMD and the ...

Comparison of matrix metalloproteinase-13 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 levels and alveolar bone density in chronic periodontitis before and after scaling and root planning

Majalah Kedokteran Gigi Indonesia, 2022
Periodontitis is typically associated with disorders characterized by compromised tooth-supporting tissue. Damage to periodontal tissue is caused by an imbalance between matrix metalloproteinases and their inhibitors. Decreased tissue inhibitor and elevated matrix metalloproteinase levels result in collagen connective tissue and bone degradation ...

Fine root and leaf functional traits of coastal herbs and their relationship with soil factors

Guangxi Zhiwu, 2023
Leaf and root are the most sensitive organs to environment, exploring the relationship between root and leaf functional traits and their responses to environmental factors is helpful to reveal the utilization of resources by plants and their adaption ...

Macrophomina phaseolina: density and longevity of microsclerotia in soybean root tissues and free on the soil, and competitive saprophytic ability [PDF]

Summa Phytopathologica, 2014
In field experiments, the density of Macrophomina phaseolina microsclerotia in root tissues of naturally colonized soybean cultivars was quantified. The density of free sclerotia on the soil was determined for plots of crop rotation (soybean-corn) and soybean monoculture soon after soybean harvest. M.

Soil Sterilization Eliminates Beneficial Microbes That Provide Natural Pest Suppression Ecosystem Services Against Radopholus similis and Fusarium Oxysporum V5w2 in the Endosphere and Rhizosphere of Tissue Culture Banana Plants

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2022
Endosphere and rhizosphere microbes offer plant growth promotion and pest suppression ecosystem services in banana-based agroecosystems. Interest has been growing towards the use of such beneficial microbes in protecting vulnerable tissue culture banana ...
