Significant resource niche overlap between competing parasitoids does not prevent their successful co‐existence

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Different species that exploit the same resources can sometimes co‐exist in the same habitat through resource sharing. For example, if resources are superabundant, then they can be easily partitioned interspecifically among different individuals. However, when resources

Species Choice Influences Weed Suppression, N Sharing and Crop Productivity in Oilseed Rape–Legume Intercrops

open access: yesAgronomy, 2022
Increasing crop trait diversity in oilseed rape (OR, Brassica napus L.) cropping systems by introducing frost-sensitive legume species could improve weed suppression and crop productivity.

Russian wheat aphid: a model for genomic plasticity and a challenge to breeders

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Invasive foundress finds suitable habitat and reproduces through pathogenesis. Wingless females produce life offspring quickly, which leads to high population densities. High population densities result in competition, which may induce epigenetic changes and wing development for dispersal.

Identification of Abscisic Acid-Dependent Phosphorylated Basic Helix-Loop-Helix Transcription Factors in Guard Cells of Vicia faba by Mass Spectrometry

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
An unknown 61 kDa protein is phosphorylated by abscisic acid (ABA)-activated protein kinase in response to ABA and binds to 14-3-3 protein in a phosphorylation-dependent manner in guard-cell protoplasts (GCPs) from Vicia faba. Subsequently, ABA-dependent

Rooting Conifer Genetic Research: An Accessible and Efficient Transformation System

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conifers serve as the cornerstone of global forest ecosystems, yet their genetic transformation faces notorious challenges. To overcome the intrinsic resistance of conifer adventitious roots to Agrobacterium/Rhizobium‐mediated transformation, we systematically and iteratively engineered the binary vector by introducing chimeric Ri plasmid ...

Effects of Rhizobium Inoculation Rate on Yield and Yield Components of Faba Bean (Vicia faba L.)

open access: yesBulletin of University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Cluj-Napoca: Agriculture
Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is an economically important crop in Ethiopia. The productivity of Faba bean in Ethiopia has declined due to poor management practices of Bio fertilizer rates usage. This study evaluated the effect of Rhizobium inoculation rates
