Seed vetches (Vicia sativa L.) are currently grown mainly in catch crop mixtures. They are characterized by a high biomass production with a good rooting intensity and good weed suppressing effect.

Grazing influences Stipa breviflora seed germination in desert grasslands of the Inner Mongolia Plateau [PDF]
Seed germination plays an important role in determining the composition and regeneration of plant populations (Stipa breviflora). However, the influencing factors and strategies employed for seed germination in desert grasslands under grazing remain ...

A study of the effects of ground cover on overwintering slug populations and effect of coulter design on slug incidence in direct drilling : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science at Massey University [PDF]
A two stage study involving the effect of vegetation cover on overwintering slug populations, and the effect of coulter design on slug incidence and damage in a direct drilled cereal was carried out during the 1980/81 growring season.

Niches, rather than neutrality, structure a grassland pioneer guild [PDF]
Pioneer species are fast-growing, short-lived gap exploiters. They are prime candidates for neutral dynamics because they contain ecologically similar species whose low adult density is likely to cause widespread recruitment limitation, which slows ...

Crosstalk between the ribosome quality control‐associated E3 ubiquitin ligases LTN1 and RNF10
Loss of the E3 ligase LTN1, the ubiquitin‐like modifier UFM1, or the deubiquitinating enzyme UFSP2 disrupts endoplasmic reticulum–ribosome quality control (ER‐RQC), a pathway that removes stalled ribosomes and faulty proteins. This disruption may trigger a compensatory response to ER‐RQC defects, including increased expression of the E3 ligase RNF10 ...

Cumulative individual seed production in the polycarpic Caesalpinia gilliesii (Fabaceae): effects of temporal variability in floral display, plant density and pollination [PDF]
In polycarpic species, floral display size and density of conspecific neighbours are time variable as well as their effects on pollination and fecundity.

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

Strongly coupled artificial bulk HTS grain boundaries with high critical current densities [PDF]
A multi-seeding process has been developed to fabricate single Y-Ba-Cu-O (YBCO) grains containing strong artificial grain boundaries. Multi-seeding of heterogeneous YBCO grains with controlled orientation was achieved using large Sm-Ba-Cu-O (SmBCO ...
