A proteomic view on the role of legume symbiotic interactions
(Frontiers Media, 2017)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Legume plants are key elements in sustainable agriculture and represent a significant source of plant-based protein for humans and animal feed worldwide. One specific feature of the family is the ability to establish ...
Drought stress causes a reduction in the biosynthesis of ascorbic acid in soybean plants
(Frontiers Media, 2017)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Drought provokes a number of physiological changes in plants including oxidative damage. Ascorbic acid (AsA), also known as vitamin C, is one of the most abundant water-soluble antioxidant compound present in plant tissues. ...
Leaf δ15N as a physiological indicator of the responsiveness of N2-fixing alfalfa plants to elevated CO2, temperature and low water availability
(Frontiers Media, 2015)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
The natural 15N/14N isotope composition (δ15N) of a tissue is a consequence of its N source and N physiological mechanisms in response to the environment. It could potentially be used as a tracer of N metabolism in plants ...
Seed origin and protection are important factors affecting post-fire initial recruitment in pine forest areas
(MDPI, 2017)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Initial seedling recruitment is one of the most critical stages for plants in the Mediterranean
basin. Moreover, wildfires and post-fire environmental conditions might deteriorate regeneration
success, which can lead to ...
Soil degradation and soil quality in Western Europe: current situation and future perspectives
(MDPI, 2015)
Artículo / Artikulua,
The extent and causes of chemical, physical and biological degradation of soil, and of soil loss, vary greatly in different countries in Western Europe. The objective of this review paper is to examine these issues and ...
Survival and growth as measures of shade tolerance of planted western redcedar, western hemlock and amabilis fir seedlings in hemlock-fir forests of northern Vancouver Island
(Elsevier, 2017)
Artículo / Artikulua,
We examined two measures of shade tolerance (survival and growth) of planted 1-year-old seedlings of western redcedar (Thuja plicata (Donn ex D. Don)), western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla ([Raf.] Sarg.)) and amabilis fir ...
Physiological responses of legume nodules to drought
(Global Science Books, 2011)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Legumes include important agricultural crops, as their high protein content is of primary importance for human food and animal feed. In addition, the ability of most of them to establish symbiotic relationships with soil ...
Douglas-fir radial growth in interior British Columbia can be linked to long-term oscillations in Pacific and Atlantic sea surface temperatures
(NCR Research Press, 2017)
Artículo / Artikulua,
A major problem in modern dendrochronology is that the methods traditionally used for linking tree ring growth data to climate records are not well suited to reconstructing low-frequency climatic variations. In this study, ...
Tree-to-tree competition in mixed European beech-Scots pine forests has different impacts on growth and water-use efficiency depending on site condition.
(WileyBritish Ecological Society, 2018)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Mixed conifer-hardwood forests can be more productive than pure forests and they are increasingly considered as ecosystems that could provide adaptation strategies in the face of global ...
Temporal interactions among throughfall, type of canopy and thinning drive radial growth in an Iberian mixed pine-beech forest
(Elsevier, 2018)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Many factors can influence tree growth over time such as different forest management practices, climate or tree-to-tree interactions, especially in mixed forests. We show in this work how the temporal growth patterns ...
