What matters most? Assessment of within-canopy factors influencing the needle microbiome of the model conifer, Pinus radiata

Environmental Microbiome, 2023
The assembly and function of the phyllosphere microbiome is important to the overall fitness of plants and, thereby, the ecosystems they inhabit. Presently, model systems for tree phyllosphere microbiome studies are lacking, yet forests resilient to ...

Molar mass determination of lignins and characterization of their polymeric structures by multi-detector gel permeation chromatography

Journal of Analytical Science and Technology, 2021
Molar masses, Mark-Houwink-Sakurada (MHS) exponents, and refractive index increments (dn/dc) for three lignins were determined without derivatization by multi-detector gel permeation chromatography (GPC) in dimethylformamide (DMF) with 0.05 M lithium ...

Different adaptation strategies of two citrus scion/rootstock combinations in response to drought stress [PDF]

, 2017
Scion/rootstock interaction is important for plant development and for breeding programs. In this context, polyploid rootstocks presented several advantages, mainly in relation to biotic and abiotic stresses.
