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 ...
Isotopic labelling reveals the efficient adaptation of wheat root TCA cycle flux modes to match carbon demand under ammonium nutrition
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019-06-20)
Proper carbon (C) supply is essential for nitrogen (N) assimilation especially when plants are grown under ammonium (NH4+) nutrition. However, how C and N metabolic fluxes adapt to achieve so remains uncertain. In this ...
TRY plant trait database - enhanced coverage and open access
(Wiley, 2020-01)
Plant traits-the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants-determine how plants respond to environmental factors, affect other trophic levels, and influence ecosystem ...
Nitrogen Assimilation in the Highly Salt- and Boron-Tolerant Ecotype Zea mays L. Amylacea
(MDPI, 2020-02-04)
The Lluta Valley in Northern Chile is an important agricultural area affected by both salinity and boron (B) toxicity. <i>Zea mays</i> L. amylacea, an ecotype arisen because of the seed selection practiced in this valley, ...
Relationship between tillage management and DMPSA nitrification inhibitor efficiency
(Elsevier, 2020-05)
Agricultural sustainability is compromised by nitrogen (N) losses caused by soil microbial activity. Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a potent greenhouse gas (GHG) produced as consequence of nitrification and denitrification processes ...
Factores implicados en la embriogénesis somática: El caso de Pinus radiata
(2017-05-11)
La importancia económica de Pinus radiata ha favorecido la investigación en el área dela biotecnología forestal, con el objeto de mejorar los programas de silvicultura. Estehecho, unido a las técnicas actuales de reproducción ...
Photoprotective Strategies of Mediterranean Plants in Relation to Morphological Traits and Natural Environmental Pressure: A Meta-Analytical Approach
(Frontiers Media, 2017-06-19)
Despite being a small geographic extension, Mediterranean Basin is characterized by an exceptional plant biodiversity. Adaptive responses of this biocoenosis are delineated by an unusual temporal dissociation along the ...
Unraveling the Photoprotective Response of Lichenized and Free-Living Green Algae (Trebouxiophyceae, Chlorophyta) to Photochilling Stress
(Frontiers Media, 2017-07-04)
Lichens and free-living terrestrial algae are widespread across many habitats and develop successfully in ecosystems where a cold winter limits survival. With the goal of comparing photoprotective responses in free-living ...
Study of phytoplankton as food resource and toxicity risk for human health in offshore bivalve aquaculture in the Basque Country
(2018-06-15)
El fitoplancton, como base de las redes tróficas marinas, es la principal fuente de energía para los bivalvos filtradores, entre otros. En el País Vasco, el reciente interés en el cultivo de bivalvos en aguas costeras llevó ...
When the sun never sets: daily changes in pigment composition in three subarctic woody plants during the summer solstice
(Springer, 2018-02-02)
Composition and content of photosynthetic pigments is finely tuned by plants according to a subtle equilibrium between the absorbed and used energy by the photosynthetic apparatus. Subarctic and Arctic plants are subjected ...
