Rhizobia–Bean Symbiosis Increases Root Herbivore Attraction and Growth via Volatile Signals and Enhanced Nutrition

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The symbiosis between nitrogen‐fixing rhizobia and plants is considered mutually beneficial, yet its indirect effects on other organisms remain understudied. We examined how rhizobia symbiosis in Phaseolus vulgaris influences the behaviour and performance of Diabrotica balteata larvae. Specifically, we tested larval preference for nodulated (R+

The influence of lead on the growth Trifolium repens L. and Phleum pratense L. in the monocultures and plant mixture on light soil of different acidity

open access: yesActa Agrobotanica, 2013
The purpose of the microplot experiment, on the light soil, was determination of concentration of lead at different pH, inhibiting growth of Trifolium repens L. and Phleum pratense L. at the monoculture and at the mixture of these two species.

Input of nitrogen from N2 fixation to northern grasslands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Forage legumes form N2-fixing symbioses with rhizobia and may thus make substantial contributions to the N pool in grasslands. However, to optimize their use as sources of N, it is important to elucidate the effects of management factors that influence ...

Exogenous IAA application alleviated altered physiological and biochemical processes through promoting H‐ATPase and Fe chelate reductase activities in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) subjected to iron deficiency

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Exogenous IAA supply enhances the strategy I response in common bean under iron deficiency. Abstract Iron deficiency is a common nutritional disorder observed in calcareous soils, where its resolution by classical methods has shown its failure. However, the exploitation of certain potentialities possessed by crops (rhizosphere acidification, H‐ATPase ...

Induced defence by a root hemiparasite increases host plant resistance against future infection

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Infection by root hemiparasites can increase mortality of parasites during future infection, indicating induced host defence mechanisms. Abstract European grassland plants are frequently attacked by root hemiparasites. However, little is known about host defence responses to parasitism.

Vegetation change of mountainous hay meadows to intensified management regime in organic farming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The whole vegetation assemblage of 60 relevés (4 m²) in a block design was examined at two mountainous hay meadow stands over a two-year period. All sites were situated at a certified organic farm, managed according to the guidelines of organic farming ...

The concentration of isoflavones in red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) at flowering stage.

open access: yes, 2015
The objective of this study was to determine the concentrations of isoflavones in the cultivars and ecotypes of red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) in a whole above ground part of a plant and separately in stems, leaves and flowers at flowering stage ...

Restoring off‐highway vehicle trails in flood‐prone and riparian forests using balsam poplar cuttings

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Recreational off‐highway vehicle (OHV) use can cause significant disturbance to natural areas. The use of local balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera L.) cuttings may be a solution to supply native plant material for the restoration of flood‐prone and riparian environments.
