A wheat cysteine-rich receptor-like kinase confersbroad-spectrum resistance against Septoria tritici blotch
(Nature, 2021-01-19)
The poverty of disease resistance gene reservoirs limits the breeding of crops for durable resistance against evolutionary dynamic pathogens. Zymoseptoria tritici which causes Septoria tritici blotch (STB), represents one ...
Acceptance of Near-Natural Greenspace Management Relates to Ecological and Socio-Cultural Assigned Values Among European Urbanites
(Elsevier, 2021-02)
Grasslands are widespread elements of urban greenspace providing recreational, psychological and aesthetic benefits to city residents. Two urban grassland types of contrasting management dominate urban greenspaces: frequently ...
Comparison of Sampling Methods for Benthic Macroinvertebrates in Forested Wetlands
(Elsevier, 2021-06)
Forest wetlands are biodiversity hotspots that perform functions of vital ecological importance, but they are among the world's most threatened ecosystems. Due to their high diversity of habitats and species, the study of ...
Behavioural ecology and conservation of the Egyptian Vulture in human-dominated landscapes: insights from long-term monitoring and movement ecology
(2022-03-25)
Human activities transformed virtually all landscapes worldwide to fulfil their basic needs (e.g., resource extraction, agriculture or leisure activities). By doing so, they also affect species inhabiting these human-dominated ...
Potential alien ranges of European plants will shrink in the future, but less so for already naturalized than for not yet naturalized species
(Wiley, 2021-11)
Aims The rapid increase in the number of species that have naturalized beyond their native range is among the most apparent features of the Anthropocene. How alien species will respond to other processes of future global ...
Light and flow regimes regulate the metabolism of rivers
(National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2022-02-22)
Mean annual temperature and mean annual precipitation drive much of the variation in productivity across Earth's terrestrial ecosystems but do not explain variation in gross primary productivity (GPP) or ecosystem respiration ...
Short-Term Exposure to High Atmospheric Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD) Severely Impacts Durum Wheat Carbon and Nitrogen Metabolism in the Absence of Edaphic Water Stress
(MDPI, 2021-01-08)
Low atmospheric relative humidity (RH) accompanied by elevated air temperature and decreased precipitation are environmental challenges that wheat production will face in future decades. These changes to the atmosphere are ...
Temperature-induced priming during Pinus radiata somatic embryogenesis: integrating proteomic, metabolic and physiological approaches
(2021-03-10)
Debido a los efectos del cambio climático, la producción de planta forestal de alta calidad con elevada capacidad de tolerancia a diversos estreses bióticos/abióticos es de gran importancia. La embriogénesis somática es ...
The Arabidopsis Transcription Factor CDF3 Is Involved in Nitrogen Responses and Improves Nitrogen Use Efficiency in Tomato
(Frontiers Media, 2020-11-24)
Nitrate is an essential macronutrient and a signal molecule that regulates the expression of multiple genes involved in plant growth and development. Here, we describe the participation of Arabidopsis DNA binding with one ...
Enlisting wild grass genes to combat nitrification in wheat farming: A nature-based solution
(National Academy Of Sciences, 2021-08-31)
Active nitrifiers and rapid nitrification are major contributing factors to nitrogen losses in global wheat production. Suppressing nitrifier activity is an effective strategy to limit N losses from agriculture. Production ...
