Use of carbon isotope analysis to understand semi‐arid erosion dynamics and long‐term semi‐arid land degradation [PDF]

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, 2008
Abstract Many semi‐arid areas worldwide are becoming degraded, in the form of C 4 grasslands being replaced by C 3 shrublands, which causes an increase in surface runoff and erosion, and altered nutrient cycling, which may affect ...

Dual‐line Genome‐scale CRISPR Screening Enables Robust Target Gene Discovery

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A species‐optimized CRISPR platform integrates efficient piggyBac delivery, genome‐scale sgRNA libraries, and parallel screening in two independently engineered Bactrocera dorsalis Cas9 cell lines. Cross‐line consensus analysis filters line‐specific effects, enriches candidates with reproducible in vivo phenotypes, and reveals conserved, species ...

Quantitative Genetic Analysis of Agronomic and Morphological Traits in Sorghum, Sorghum bicolor

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
The productivity in sorghum is low, owing to various biotic and abiotic constraints. Combining insect resistance with desirable agronomic and morphological traits is important to increase sorghum productivity. Therefore, it is important to understand the

An Overview of Biodegradation of LNAPLs in Coastal (Semi)-arid Environment [PDF]

Water, Air, & Soil Pollution, 2011
Contamination of soil and water due to the release of light non-aqueous phase liquids (LNAPLs) is a ubiquitous problem. The problem is more severe in arid and semi-arid coastal regions where most of the petroleum production and related refinery industries are located.

Root‐Inspired Microneedle Patch With Interlocked Rigid‐Soft Architecture for High Tissue‐Adaptiveness

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A root‐inspired microneedle array patch uses lattice‐based mechanical interlocking to unite rigid microneedles with a flexible substrate. The interlocked rigid–soft architecture improves interfacial bonding, supports stable adhesion on curved and wet tissues under dynamic motion, and provides a versatile platform for robust biointerfacing and future ...

High-throughput diagnostic markers for foliar fungal disease resistance and high oleic acid content in groundnut

BMC Plant Biology
Background Foliar diseases namely late leaf spot (LLS) and leaf rust (LR) reduce yield and deteriorate fodder quality in groundnut. Also the high oleic acid content has emerged as one of the most important traits for industries and consumers due to its ...

Rainfall Shapes the Diversity of Soil Nitrogen‐Fixing Microorganisms Worldwide

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals the distinctive pattern and mechanism of rainfall driving the global biodiversity and biogeography of soil potential N‐fixing microorganisms, and constructs the theoretical framework. The results guide us on how to maintain ecosystem productivity under future climate changes (e.g., whether a specific region needs more N fertilizers ...

Plant vigour QTLs co-map with an earlier reported QTL hotspot for drought tolerance while water saving QTLs map in other regions of the chickpea genome

BMC Plant Biology, 2018
Background Terminal drought stress leads to substantial annual yield losses in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). Adaptation to water limitation is a matter of matching water supply to water demand by the crop.
