Problem hydromorphic soils in north-east Thailand. 1. Environment and soil morphology.
The Roi Et soil, a Gleyic Acrisol (FAO, 1974) is one of the main soils on the extensive seasonally wet, low terrace in north-east Thailand. The soil looks poor and produces traditionally low yields of one paddy rice crop/year. With fertilizers and dry-season irrigation, problems of water-logging, surface salinity and acidity caused poor germination and

Arguments for and against self and non-self root recognition in plants [PDF]
Root–root interaction research gained more and more attention over the past few years. Roots are pivotal for plant survival because they ensure uptake of water and nutrients.

Characterising the tumour morphological response to therapeutic intervention:an ex vivo model [PDF]
In cancer, morphological assessment of histological tissue samples is a fundamental part of both diagnosis and prognosis. Image analysis offers opportunities to support that assessment through quantitative metrics of morphology.
