Ultraviolet Radiation From a Plant Perspective: The Plant-Microorganism Context

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation directly affects plants and microorganisms, but also alters the species-specific interactions between them. The distinct bands of UV radiation, UV-A, UV-B, and UV-C have different effects on plants and their associated ...

Methylotroph bacteria and cellular metabolite carotenoid alleviate ultraviolet radiation-driven abiotic stress in plants

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Increasing UV radiation in the atmosphere due to the depletion of ozone layer is emerging abiotic stress for agriculture. Although plants have evolved to adapt to UV radiation through different mechanisms, but the role of phyllosphere microorganisms in ...

UV radiation increases mortality and decreases the antioxidant activity in a tephritid fly

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, 2021
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation has been widely used to monitor insects and conduct surface sterilizations at 365 nm and 254 nm wavelengths, respectively. The global increase in the use of UV light has raised concerns about environmental impacts and effects ...

Analysis of relationships between ultraviolet radiation (295–385 nm) and aerosols as well as shortwave radiation in North China Plain [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2008
The fraction of ultraviolet (UV) radiation to broadband shortwave (SW) radiation (FUV=UV/SW) and the influences of aerosol, precipitable water vapor content (PWV) and snow on FUV were examined using two year's worth of ground-based measurements of ...

Excimer UV Radiation in Dermatology

open access: yesInternational Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology, 2014
Ultraviolet B (UVB 290–320 nm) radiation has been used in the treatment of different skin diseases. Light sources with narrowband UVB output spectrum have been developed with the aim of increasing the rates of “beneficial to side effect” profile of the treatment.
