Uttar Pradesh (UP) is one of the largest states in India. Based on vegetation types, the state is divided into four main regions: the Terai Region, Gangetic Plains, Vindhyan, and Semi-arid Regions. These regions harbour ...

Apomictic grasses predominate among tropical forages, and specific breeding techniques are needed for their genetic improvement. The objectives were to: 1- generate hybrids by crossing tetraploid sexual and apomictic Pas...

The loess-paleosol sequences in the provinces of Belgian and Dutch Limburg (Northeastern Belgium and Southern Netherlands, respectively) reveal a continuous record of paleo-climatic variations during the late Middle and ...

The conservation zone of Panchgani Tableland lies within the Mahabaleshwar Panchgani Eco-sensitive Zone, Satara District, Maharashtra, India, in northern Western Ghats. The present paper reports 189 species across 54 fam...

Harnessing root-associated microbiomes to promote beneficial microbial compositions could offer a sustainable strategy to increase crop resilience. Major challenges impeding this strategy are the lack of understanding of...

We report that a novel Arabidopsis thaliana kinase cascade shows telltale similarities to the kinase cascades of oxidative stress response kinases (OSRKs) from humans and animals. A previously uncharacterized A. thaliana...

PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Plants preserved in different fossil modes provide complementary data concerning the paleobiology and evolutionary relationships among plant groups. New material from the Early Jurassic of Patagonia...

The microbiota of plants is composed of a large diversity of microbes, engaging with their host via various types of interactions, from beneficial to detrimental. Consequently, how plants perceive mutualistic from pathog...

Insect monitoring is a key component of sustainable and productive crop management. Among the various methods used to observe insect communities, pitfall trapping, visual searching, and sweep-net sampling of vegetation a...

Rheophytes are plant species that are confined to the beds of swift-running streams and rivers and grow there up to flood level, but not beyond the reach of regularly occurring flash floods. Little is known about this gr...

Nitrosomonas europaea is a chemolithoautotroph that obtains energy by oxidizing ammonia in the presence of oxygen and fixes CO2 via the Benson-Calvin cycle. Despite its environmental and evolutionary importance, very lit...

The ability of phytochromes (Phy) to act as photointerconvertible light switches in plants and microorganisms depends on key interactions between the bilin chromophore and the apoprotein that promote bilin attachment and...

The rhizosphere is one of the most dynamic biological environments on Earth. Within this narrow zone surrounding plant roots, plants interact constantly with diverse communities of microorganisms including bacteria, fung...

Agroathelia rolfsii causes stem rot in multiple crops, survives as sclerotia in the absence of host plants, and remains a difficult-to-manage pathogen globally. Although Trichoderma species offer a sustainable biocontrol...

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a central role in plant defense, especially during interactions with plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs). These molecules act as early signals that activate immune responses and help reinf...

Perennial plants which flower and fruit once in their lifecycle and then die are known as plietesial monocarpic. Many species from the family Acanthaceae are known for this behaviour. With the detailed phenological obser...

Essential oils from six species of aromatic plants collected in the Catamarca Province of Argentina were evaluated for their chemical composition and repellent and insecticidal activities against beetles of the genus Car...

Nos preguntamos que atributos de la vegetación influencian la selectividad de los ovinos respecto de diferentes unidades de vegetación a lo largo de sus caminos de pastoreo. Obtuvimos 40 000 registros de posiciones de ...

OBJECTIVE: Complementary and alternative medicine practices are perceived by patients, both in pre-dialysis and dialysis periods, to be hopeful and promising. In our study we searched herbal product (HP) use in peritonea...
