The spread of non‐native species

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Pulp or Potential? Magneto-Priming as a Seed Priming Technique Has Little Effect on Seedling Performance but Results in Significant Alteration of trans-Zeatin and cis-Zeatin in Soybean (Glycine max)

International Journal of Plant Biology
Magneto-priming (MP) has been reported as a sustainable method to enhance crop yield and resistance to adverse environmental conditions; however, any physiochemical basis for these findings remains unavailable. In the present study, soybean (Glycine max)

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Ethylene-independent promotion of photomorphogenesis in the dark by cytokinin requires COP1 and the CDD complex [PDF]

, 2019
The transition of skotomorphogenesis to photomorphogenesis is induced by the perception of light, and is characterized by the inhibition of hypocotyl elongation and opening of cotyledons.
