Air Quality Trend of PM10. Statistical Models for Assessing the Air Quality Impact of Environmental Policies
(MDPI, 2019)
A statistical modelling of PM10 concentration (2006–2015) is applied to understand the
behaviour, to know the influence of the variables to exposure risk, to treat the missing data to
evaluate air quality, and to estimate ...
Starch degradation, abscisic acid and vesicular trafficking areimportant elements in callose priming by indole-3-carboxylicacid in response toPlectosphaerella cucumerinainfection
(Wiley, 2018)
A fast callose accumulation has been shown to mediate defence priming in certain plant–pathogen interac-tions, but the events upstream of callose assembly following chemical priming are poorly understood,mainly because ...
β-Lactam Antibiotics Modify Root Architecture and Indole Glucosinolate Metabolism in Arabidopsis thaliana
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
The presence of antibiotics in soils could be due to natural
production by soil microorganisms or to the effect of anthropogenic activities. However, the impact of these compounds on plant physiology has not been ...
When do predatory mites (Phytoseiidae) attack? Understanding their diel and seasonal predation patterns
(Wiley, 2018-11)
Predatory mites of the Phytoseiidae family are considered one of the most important groups of natural enemies used in biological control. The behavioral patterns of arthropods can differ greatly daily and seasonally; ...
Fatty Acid Profile Changes During Gradual Soil Water Depletion in Oats Suggests a Role for Jasmonates in Coping With Drought
(Frontiers Media, 2018-07-31)
Although often investigated within the context of plant growth and development and/or
seed composition, plant lipids have roles in responses to environment. To dissect
changes in lipid and fatty acid ...
1-Methyltryptophan Modifies Apoplast Content in Tomato Plants Improving Resistance Against Pseudomonas syringae
(Frontiers Media, 2018-08-31)
Plants can produce numerous natural products, many of which have been shown to
confer protection against microbial attack. In this way, we identified 1-methyltryptophan
(1-MT), a natural compound produced by tomato plants ...
Effect of Trichoderma viride pre‐inoculation in pine species with different levels of susceptibility to Fusarium circinatum: physiological and hormonal responses
(2019)
Pine pitch canker (PPC), caused by Fusarium circinatum, affects Pinus species worldwide. Although no effective solutions have yet been found to control it, there is a growing interest in using biological control agents ...
Endophytes from wild cereals protect wheat plants from drought by alteration of physiological responses of the plants to water stress
(Wiley, 2019-01-13)
Endophytes contribute to plant performance, especially under harsh conditions. We therefore hypothesized that wild plants have retained beneficial endophytes that are less abundant or not present in related crop plants. ...
Polyphenol and l-ascorbic acid content in tomato as influenced by high lycopene genotypes and organic farming at different environments
(Elsevier, 2018-01-15)
The accumulation of polyphenols and L
-
ascorbic acid was
evaluated under conventional (integrated pest management, IPM) and
organic farming, as means to increase the accumulation of chemoprotective
compounds. The ...
Photoreceptor Activity Contributes to Contrasting Responses to Shade in Cardamine and Arabidopsis Seedlings
(American Society of Plant Biologists, 2019)
Plants have evolved two major ways to deal with nearby vegetation or shade: avoidance and tolerance. Moreover, some plants respond to shade in different ways; for example, Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) undergoes an ...
