The role of topographic and soil factors on woody plant encroachment in mountainous rangelands: A mini literature review [PDF]

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Mountainous rangelands provide key ecosystem goods and services, particularly for human benefit. In spite of these benefits, mountain grasslands are undergoing extensive land-cover change as a result of woody plant encroachment. However, the influence of

MicroRNAs in Woody Plants [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small (∼21-nucleotides) non-coding RNAs found in plant and animals. MiRNAs function as critical post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression by binding to complementary sequences in their target mRNAs, leading to mRNA destabilization and translational inhibition.

Describing woody plant traits - Woody Plant Ontology

open access: yes, 2022
Woody plants lateral meristems lead to extensive production of secondary growth tissues (wood/secondary xylem and cork/phellem). As a result, a set of characteristic traits related to secondary tissues can be described in these plants. Woody Plant Ontology describes variables applied during woody plant observations. This ontology covers several domains

Stomata variation in the process of polyploidization in Chinese chive (Allium tuberosum)

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2023
Background Stomatal variation, including guard cell (GC) density, size and chloroplast number, is often used to differentiate polyploids from diploids. However, few works have focused on stomatal variation with respect to polyploidization, especially for

Water ascends in woody plants : so what? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Woody plants are often considered as static individuals, taking up water via the root system and losing it again via leaf transpiration. Quite boring one might conclude when considering that more than 95% of the water taken up by the roots is transpired ...
