Knock-down of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase 3 negatively impacts growth, productivity, and responses to salt stress in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.)
(Wiley, 2022-07)
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) is a carboxylating enzyme with important roles in plant metabolism. Most studies in C-4 plants have focused on photosynthetic PEPC, but less is known about non-photosynthetic PEPC ...
Xanthophyll cycles in the juniper haircap moss (Polytrichum juniperinum) and Antarctic hair grass (Deschampsia antarctica) on Livingston Island (South Shetland Islands, Maritime Antarctica)
(Springer, 2022)
The summer climate in Maritime Antarctica is characterised by high humidity and cloudiness with slightly above zero temperatures. Under such conditions, photosynthetic activity is temperature-limited and plant communities ...
A field portable method for the semi-quantitative estimation of dehydration tolerance of photosynthetic tissues across distantly related land plants.
(2018-12-04)
Desiccation tolerant (DT) plants withstand complete cellular dehydration (reaching relative
water contents below 30% in their photosynthetic tissues), while desiccation sensitive (DS)
plants exhibit different degrees of ...
Effectiveness And Ecotoxicity Of Zero-Valent Iron Nanoparticles During Rhizoremediation Of Soil Contaminated With Zn, Cu, Cd And Diesel
(Elsevier, 2018-04)
The remediation of soils simultaneously contaminated with organic and inorganic compounds is still a challenging task. The application of metallic nanoparticles, such as zero-valent iron nanoparticles (nZVI), for soil ...
PGPRs and nitrogen-fixing legumes: a perfect team for efficient Cd phytoremediation?
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2015-02-25)
Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic, biologically non-essential and highly mobile metal that has become an increasingly important environmental hazard to both wildlife and humans. In contrast to conventional remediation technologies, ...
On the recalcitrant use of Arnon’s method for chlorophyll determination
(New Phytologist Trust, 2017-11-28)
Fotoprotección en un ambiente tropical hostil: el caso de especies del manglar y del bosque seco de Nicaragua.
(2019-12-19)
La costa pacífica de Nicaragua se caracteriza por una cordillera de volcanes y un clima tropical seco con alta irradiancia solar y temperaturas elevadas durante todo el año, con una estación seca desde noviembre hasta ...
Study of diplodia shoot blight causing fungi in pinus radiata plantations of the Basque Country
(2019-03-21)
Con el fin de determinar las especies responsables de causar la enfermedad del marchitamiento de los brotes, se ha llevado a cabo un muestreo generalizado en 100 plantaciones de P. radiata del País Vasco donde se tomaron ...
Assessment of phytostabilization of Pb/Zn mine soils with organic amendments and a native metallicolous ecotype of Festuca Rubra l.: implications for amendment selection and recovery of soil health
(2013-09-24)
La contaminación del suelo es una de las principales amenazas para los ecosistemas y la salud humana. Actualmente, desde un punto de vista tanto económico como ambiental, la fitoestabilización es la mejor tecnología para ...
Species Composition and Plant Traits of South Atlantic European Coastal Dunes and Other Comparative Data
(Elsevier, 2019-02)
The data reported in this article relates to the research article entitled “Changes in plant diversity patterns along dune zonation in south Atlantic European coasts” (Torca et al., 2019) [1]. Data about traits of species ...
