Dormancy and germination responses of kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa) seeds to environmental cues
(Cambridge University Press, 2016-12)
Seed germination of the kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa A. Chev. C.F. Liang and A.R. Ferguson), a deciduous, perennial vine, is low because of seed dormancy. The main purpose of this study was to characterize kiwifruit seed ...
Fatty acid composition of olive oil in response to fruit canopy position and artificial shading
(Elsevier Science, 2020-09)
The fatty acid composition of olive oil is greatly affected by geographical origin, and olive oil is often promoted by health experts because of its high oleic acid concentration. Unfortunately, recent evidence has shown ...
New insights into the nature of the Cibacron brilliant red 3B-A ? Chitosan interaction
(2016)
Cibacron brilliant red 3B-A (CBR) has been introduced to determine chitosan (CS) concentrations in solution, and several studies applied it to measure chitosan content in pharmaceutical formulations. So far, studies have ...
The chemical composition of red giants in 47 Tucanae II. Magnesium isotopes and pollution scenarios
(EDP SCIENCES S A, 2016)
Context. The phenomenon of multiple populations in globular clusters is still far from understood, with several proposed mechanisms to explain the observed behaviour. The study of elemental and isotopic abundance patterns ...
Distinct germination responses may contribute to the distribution pattern of two Moquiniastrum species in different phytophysiognomies from the Brazilian savanna
(Elsevier B.V., 2016-08-01)
Understanding how germination traits can influence the distribution pattern of adult plants is still an important issue for seed ecologists and biologists. Here, we evaluated if seed germination responses to abiotic factors ...
Vegetative plasticity and floral branching compensate low plant density in modern spring rapeseed
(Elsevier Science, 2017-08)
Sunlight is a crucial environmental factor for photosynthesis. Plant density affects both quality and quantity at light penetration into the canopy. The effects of plant density on the expression of photomorphogenic traits ...
Competing neighbors: light perception and root function
(Springer, 2014-03)
Plant responses to competition have often been described as passive consequences of reduced resource availability. However, plants have mechanisms to forage for favorable conditions and anticipate competition scenarios. ...
Spectroscopic differentiation of stars within the Red Clump
(Universidad de los AndesFísicaFacultad de CienciasDepartamento de Física, 2022-08-12)
Although Red Clump (RC) stars have been increasingly used as standard candles to measure stellar extinctions, distances, chemistry and kinematics both in and out of the Milky Way due to the small variation within their ...
Grapevine morphological shade acclimation is mediated by light quality whereas hydraulic shade acclimation is mediated by light intensity
(Elsevier Ireland, 2021-06)
Plants acclimate to shade by sensing light signals such as low photosynthetic active radiation (PAR), low blue light (BL) levels and low red-to-far red ratios (R:FR) trough plant photoreceptors cross talk. We previously ...
