Genome-wide identification of the bHLH transcription factor family in Rosa persica and response to low-temperature stress [PDF]
PeerJBackground Basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors are involved in plant growth and development, secondary metabolism, and abiotic stress responses have been studied in a variety of plants. Despite their importance in plant biology, the roles

Urban storage heat flux variability explored using satellite, meteorological and geodata [PDF]
, 2020 The storage heat flux (ΔQS) is the net flow of heat stored within a volume that may include the air, trees, buildings and ground. Given the difficulty of measurement of this important and large flux in urban areas, we explore the use of Earth Observation

Urbanization pressures alter tree rhizosphere microbiomes [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 AbstractThe soil microbial community (SMC) provides critical ecosystem services including organic matter decomposition, soil structural formation, and nutrient cycling. Studies suggest plants, specifically trees, act as soil keystone species controlling SMC structure via multiple mechanisms (e.g., litter chemistry, root exudates, and canopy alteration ...
