A Sugarcane G-Protein-Coupled Receptor, ShGPCR1, Confers Tolerance to Multiple Abiotic Stresses

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) is a prominent source of sugar and serves as bioenergy/biomass feedstock globally. Multiple biotic and abiotic stresses, including drought, salinity, and cold, adversely affect sugarcane yield.

Mycobiome of the Bat White Nose Syndrome (WNS) Affected Caves and Mines reveals High Diversity of Fungi and Local Adaptation by the Fungal Pathogen Pseudogymnoascus (Geomyces) destructans [PDF]

open access: yesPloS one 9.9 (2014): e108714, 2014
The investigations of the bat White Nose Syndrome (WNS) have yet to provide answers as to how the causative fungus Pseudogymnoascus (Geomyces) destructans (Pd) first appeared in the Northeast and how a single clone has spread rapidly in the US and Canada. We aimed to catalogue Pd and all other fungi (mycobiome) by the culture-dependent (CD) and culture-

Physiological and Proteomic Analyses of Saccharum spp. Grown under Salt Stress

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) is the world most productive sugar producing crop, making an understanding of its stress physiology key to increasing both sugar and ethanol production. To understand the behavior and salt tolerance mechanisms of sugarcane, two cultivars commonly used in Brazilian agriculture, RB867515 and RB855536, were submitted to salt ...

Senescent trees stabilize aboveground wood net primary production immediately after disturbance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In the United States, forests sequester 17% of national carbon (C) emissions annually (UGCRP, 2018), however shifting forest disturbances threaten the stability of this essential C sink.

Predictive habitat occupancy models for North American river otters along inland streams in New Jersey

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The North American river otter Lontra canadensis is a semi‐aquatic furbearer species that historically ranged throughout North America. Starting in the mid‐1800s and continuing through the early 1900s, the negative effects associated with anthropogenic disturbances (i.e.

Efficiency of a reduced herbicide rate for Brachiaria brizantha control in sugarcane Eficiência de subdoses de herbicidas no controle de Brachiaria brizantha em cana-de-açúcar

open access: yesPlanta Daninha, 2012
At different growth stages, weeds present different sensitivities to herbicides. Thus, the registered herbicide rate may be reduced under specific conditions, while maintaining satisfactory weed control.

Spider communities in the aboveground oak forests of central Europe are determined by vertical scale: An important missing link for biodiversity conservation

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, Volume 186, Issue 3, Page 288-301, May 2025.
Abundance of spiders and species richness increased from the ground level to the canopy in oak forests. Spiders with some specific ecological traits in the sample (such as hunting strategy, dispersal ability, occurrence and light requirements) are specifically distributed in the vertical direction.

ANALYSIS OF TIMES AND EFFICIENCIES OF THE MECHANIZED HARVEST OF SUGARCANE (Saccharum spp.)

open access: yesNucleus, 2018
Sugarcane culture directed to sugar mills is of great economic and social importance in Brazil. Harvesters are the most important equipment in the sugarcane mechanized harvesting system, since the production process in sugar mills depends on machine operating performance, which is directly related to field efficiency.

Using longitudinal survival probabilities to test field vigour estimates in sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Tree mortality is a major force driving forest dynamics. To foresters, however, tree mortality is often considered a loss in productivity. To reduce tree mortality, silvicultural systems, such as selection cuts, aim at removing trees that are more likely

Does habitat or climate change drive species range shifts?

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
A primary prediction of climate change ecology is that species will track their climate niche poleward and upslope. However, studies have shown species responding in surprising ways. In this study, we aim to understand the impact of global change on species ranges by considering both climate and habitat changes.
