The metabolic regimes of 356 rivers in the United States
(Nature Publishing, 2018-12-11)
A national-scale quantification of metabolic energy flow in streams and rivers can improve understanding of the temporal dynamics of in-stream activity, links between energy cycling and ecosystem services, and the effects ...
New Insights on Arabidopsis thaliana Root Adaption to Ammonium Nutrition by the Use of a Quantitative Proteomic Approach
(MDPI, 2019-02-14)
Nitrogen is an essential element for plant nutrition. Nitrate and ammonium are the two major inorganic nitrogen forms available for plant growth. Plant preference for one or the other form depends on the interplay between ...

(2018-12-18)
Tesi hau Urdaibaiko Biosfera Erreserbako sistema sozial-ekologikoaren ekosistemen zerbitzuen ebaluazio eta balorazioan zentratzen da, beti ere paisaiaren antolamendu eta kudeaketa iraunkorrerako erabaki-hartze prozesuan ...
The role of seas as a geographical barrier for migratory landbirds. An approach to the Bay of Biscay.
(2016-11-24)
The East-Atlantic flyway represents one of the main bird migration routes worldwide, comprising the Bay of Biscayas an inherent geographical barrier. So far, the significance of the Bay of Biscay for migrants and its ...
Background sampling in species distribution models and transferability in climate change conditions
(2017-09-08)
Los Modelos de Distribución de Especies (SDMs), son herramientas estadísticas utilizadas para la generación de predicciones probabilísticas de la presencia de poblaciones de especies en el espacio geográfico (mapas de ...
Heterobasidion bref. and armillaria (fr.) staude pathosystems in the basque country: identification, ecology and control
(2017-09-11)
In the temperate forest, root and butt rot fungi are considered the greatest causes of economic losses. Armillaria and Heterobasidion species are often the causative agents of this disease which is characterized by chlorotic ...
Adaptative mechanisms of cereals to climate change: the importance of nitrogen sources in soils.
(2018-04-27)
La actividad humana y más concretamente, la industria, la agricultura, el consumo de combustibles fósiles, la deforestación, la quema de restos vegetales y la ganadería han provocado un rápido aumento de gases de efecto ...
Molecular and biochemical analysis of XDH from Phaseolus vulgaris suggest that uric acid protects the enzyme against the inhibitory effects of nitric oxide in nodules
(Elsevier, 2019-09-05)
Xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH) is essential for the assimilation of symbiotically fixed nitrogen in ureidic legumes. Uric acid, produced in the reaction catalyzed by XDH, is the precursor of the ureides, allantoin and ...
Effects of multiple stressors associated with agriculture on stream macroinvertebrate communities in a tropical catchment
(Public Library Science, 2019-08-08)
Tropical forests are declining at unprecedented rates in favour of agriculture, and streams can be severely impacted due to effects of multiple stressors that have rarely been considered together in tropical studies. We ...
Can Ammonium Stress Be Positive for Plant Performance?
(Frontiers Media, 2019-09-24)
Ammonium (NH3/NH+4) nutrition is considered as a universal stressful situation (recently reviewed in Li et al., 2014; Esteban et al., 2016; Liu and Von Wirén, 2017). Briefly, the most common symptom of ammonium nutrition ...
