Reconstructing Cenozoic grasslands in North America and western Eurasia: evidence for cold‐season grasses from 3D phytolith morphology

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Pie charts illustrate the composition of fossil grass silica short‐cell phytolith (GSSCP) assemblages at investigated fossil sites in the United States and Türkiye and representative 3D meshes of classified phytoliths. Summary Pooideae, the largest grass subfamily, radiated in the Northern Hemisphere from the Paleocene onward and today dominates cold ...

Release characteristics of Cd, Cu and Zn from the natural and contam inated red soils under simulated acid rain

, 2009
Release characteristics of Cd, Cu and Zn from red soils under acid rain and the related influencing factors were studied and differences in heavy metal release from natural soils and contaminated soils were compared in this paper through a leaching ...

High‐Contiguity Haplotype‐Resolved Genome Assembly of the Hexaploid Actinidia valvata Rootstock Sheds Light on Waterlogging Resistance Gene

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polyploidisation, creating redundant or diverged copies of the genome, is a major driving force in plant evolution, diversification and environmental adaptation, including for the kiwifruit genus (Actinidia Lindl.). We present a high‐contiguity, haplotype‐resolved genome assembly of the hexaploid Actinidia valvata rootstock cultivar ...

The SO2 Allowance Trading System and the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990: Reflections on Twenty Years of Policy Innovation [PDF]

The introduction of the U.S. SO2 allowance-trading program to address the threat of acid rain as part of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 is a landmark event in the history of environmental regulation.

Genetic Analysis of East African Sorghum Genotypes for Yield Components and Iron and Zinc Composition

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is a vital cereal crop in dry regions worldwide. However, in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA), grain yields from currently grown varieties remain low (< 1 ton/ha) and exhibit variable nutrient composition. Therefore, the objective of this study was to undertake a genetic analysis of selected East African‐adapted ...

Beneath the Drought: Rhizosphere Processes Shape Genotype‐Specific Sorghum Responses to Drought‐Induced N Limitation

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Droughts increasingly threaten crop productivity in nutrient‐depleted tropical soils. We investigated how water limitation influences rhizomicrobial traits (microbial biomass and functional community composition, enzyme activities) and nitrogen (N) uptake in three sorghum genotypes Makueni local (Mkl), Gadam (Gd), and IESH 22012 (IESH) under ...

Revealing the Key Genetic Basis of Late Leaf Spot Resistance in Peanut by Combining QTL Mapping, QTL‐seq and RNA‐seq

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Late leaf spot (LLS) is the most widespread and destructive fungal disease affecting peanut worldwide, yet relatively little is known about its genetic basis. In this study, QTL mapping using a 1327‐bin map (derived from 9533 SNP/InDel markers) and multi‐environment phenotypic data repeatedly detected two major LLS‐resistance QTLs on ...

Induced Volatile Chemistry and Arthropod Predation Across a Tree Diversity Gradient

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant volatile organic compounds (VOCs) play a key role in defence against herbivores and in mediating multitrophic interactions. Yet, how surrounding plant diversity modulates these responses in forest trees remains poorly understood. We examined the effects of tree species richness on induced VOC emissions and arthropod predation in Quercus ...

Plant endemism of the Balkan high‐mountain fens: a community‐level synthesis and their climate change perspective

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Balkan high‐mountain fens harbour unique endemic plant communities, with a west‐to‐east compositional gradient and local richness primarily shaped by palaeoclimate. As these fens have already experienced drier, warmer summers than at present, they may withstand climate change if actively and effectively protected. Abstract The phenomenon of Balkan high‐
