Mycelial DNA persistence in a forest soil

Environmental DNA, 2021
Living fungi can be identified and monitored in their soil habitat using an array of molecular methods. However, DNA originating from dead fungal tissue may become stabilized in the soil and remain detectable for some time after cell death rendering ...

Seismic signatures reveal persistence of soil compaction

Vadose Zone Journal, 2021
A well‐developed soil structure is a key attribute of a productive and functioning soil. Evidence shows that subtle changes in the spatial arrangement and binding of soil constituents impart large changes in soil mechanical and hydraulic properties and ...

Is there an effect of storage depth on the persistence of silver birch (Betula pendula Roth) and rowan (Sorbus aucuparia L.) seeds? A seed burial experiment

iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2021
Sorbus aucuparia L. (rowan) and Betula spp. (birch) are the most common of the early successional pioneer tree species in central Europe with the ability to form a soil seed bank.

Bioindicator demonstrates high persistence of sulfentrazone in dry soil

Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2015
In sugarcane crop areas, the application of preemergence herbicides with long residual effect in the soil has been frequently necessary. The herbicide persistence in the soil must be high especially because of applications during the dry season of the ...

Microbial properties, enzyme activities and the persistence of exogenous proteins in soil under consecutive cultivation of transgenic cottons (Gossypium hirsutum L.)

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2011
One Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) and two stacked Bt and cowpea trypsin inhibitor (Bt + CpTI) cottons and their non-transgenic isolines were consecutively cultivated to investigate the soil persistence of Cry1Ac and CpTI proteins and their effects on ...

Handwashing and Ebola virus disease outbreaks: A randomized comparison of soap, hand sanitizer, and 0.05% chlorine solutions on the inactivation and removal of model organisms Phi6 and E. coli from hands and persistence in rinse water. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
To prevent Ebola transmission, frequent handwashing is recommended in Ebola Treatment Units and communities. However, little is known about which handwashing protocol is most efficacious.

Concerning the location and persistence of soil urease

, 1972
Urease activity in soil is persistent for long periods under low water, low temperature, and sterile regimes, and it has been suggested that some form of enzyme-protective mechanism exists in soil.

Direct and Indirect Effects of a Glyphosate-Based Herbicide on Spodoptera frugiperda Multiple Nucleopolyhedrovirus (Baculoviridae) on Diet, Maize Plants and Soil

Insects
Glyphosate is a broad-spectrum, systemic herbicide that has attracted concern over its non-target effects, environmental persistence, and the presence of residues in food.

Persistent Activities of Extracellular Enzymes Adsorbed to Soil Minerals

Microorganisms, 2020
Adsorption of extracellular enzymes to soil minerals is assumed to protect them against degradation, while modifying their activities at the same time. However, the persistence of the activity of adsorbed enzymes remains poorly understood.

Design of Smart Weed Control System with Consideration of Herbicide Persistence Using Supervised Learning

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2023
One of the factors that affect the quality and quantity of crops is due to stress factors caused by weeds. The presence of weeds in a field of crop is always stressful for the crop plant due to the competition for nutrients, light and moisture ...
