THE CONTENT OF SOLUBLE SUGARS IN TRUNK TISSUES OF BIRCH, ALDER AND ASPEN IN AN EXPERIMENT WITH EXOGENOUS SUCROSE

open access: yesTransactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2016
Previously it was shown that formation of parenchyma tissue inclusions in the wood of Karelian birch (Betula pendula Roth var. carelica) was associated with the high activity of apoplastic invertase. In our experiments with injection of sucrose solutions

Functional magnetic resonance microscopy of long- and short-distance water transport in trees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Due to their long life span, changing climatic conditions are of particular importance for trees. Climate changes will affect the water balance, which can become an important limiting factor for photosynthesis and growth. Long-distance water transport in

Visualisation of xylem sap flow direction in isolated fine lateral roots and estimation of the xylem sap osmotic potential

open access: yes, 2012
Xylem sap outflow from fine lateral roots (FLRs) isolated from hydroponically grown young maize (Zea mays L.) plants was visualized by local brightening of test solutions contrasted with purified Indian ink particles.

Recovery of southern mountain caribou habitat following wildfire in Ulkatcho territory, British Columbia, Canada

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Caribou forage lichens were present in post‐burn lodgepole pine stands multiple decades before stem‐density was likely open enough to attract wintering caribou. We posit that the prolonged self‐thinning of lodgepole pine after fire may be a greater limiting factor than lichen abundance for habitat recovery in lodgepole pine forests.

Moderate Biochar–Compost Mixture Is More Effective in Improving Biomass, Nutrient Fluxes, and Photosynthetic Outputs for Sustainable Land Restoration and Soil Fertility

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil nutrient depletion severely constrains crop productivity in degraded and saline environments. Strategies such as biochar–compost integration could be useful for sustainable agriculture and land restoration on a global scale. This study evaluated the effects of biochar (1% Bc), compost (1% Co), and their blends (0.5% Bc + 0.5% Co and 1% Bc

Do good neighbours compensate for bad climate? The case of sessile oak Quercus petraea in phylogenetically distant neighbourhoods

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Stressful climates threaten the performance of individuals and the survival of species, but individual performance also depends on biotic interactions with neighbours, so that ‘good' neighbours might in theory compensate for ‘bad' climates. However, what makes a good neighbour, and why, has been little studied.

Plant responses to iron nutrition with emphasis on the underutilized crop tef (Eragrostis tef): A review

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Iron (Fe) deficiency limits the physical health, cognitive development, and economic output of billions of people globally, especially children and productive‐age women. Tef is an underutilized and stress‐resilient crop, which is becoming popular for its grains containing high bioavailable Fe and has the potential to mitigate Fe deficiency.
