Indirect suppression of photosynthesis on individual leaves by arthropod herbivory
(Oxford University Press, 2009-02)
Background: Herbivory reduces leaf area, disrupts the function of leaves, and ultimately alters yield and productivity. Herbivore damage to foliage typically is assessed in the field by measuring the amount of leaf tissue ...
Interactions between soybean, Bradyrhizobium japonicum and Soybean mosaic virus: The effects depend on the interaction sequence
(Csiro Publishing, 2019-06)
The symbiotic interaction between soybean and nitrogen-fixing rhizobia can lead to plant growth promotion and induced systemic responses. Symbiotic interactions may increase tolerance/resistance to abiotic/biotic stress ...
The diversity, ecology and evolution of extrafloral nectaries: Current perspectives and future challenges
(Oxford University Press, 2013)
Extrafloral nectaries as a deterrent mechanism against seed predators in the chemically protected weed Crotalaria pallida (Leguminosae)
(Blackwell PublishingOxfordInglaterra, 2006)
Review of combinations of experimental and computational techniques to identify and understand genes involved in innate immunity and effector-triggered defence
(2017-12-01)
The innate immune system includes a first layer of defence that recognises conserved pathogen-associated molecular patterns that are essential for microbial fitness. Resistance (R) gene-based recognition of pathogen ...
Do carbon-based defences reduce foliar damage? Habitat-related effects on tree seedling performance in a temperate rainforest of Chiloe Island, Chile
(SPRINGER, 2006-01)
Carbon-based secondary compounds (CBSCs), such as phenols or tannins, have been considered as one of the most important and general chemical barriers of woody plants against a diverse array of herbivores. Herbivory has ...
How belowground interactions contribute to the coexistence of mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal species in severely phosphorus-impoverished hyperdiverse ecosystems
(Springer, 2018-03)
Background: Mycorrhizal strategies are very effective in enhancing plant acquisition of poorly-mobile nutrients, particularly phosphorus (P) from infertile soil. However, on very old and severely P-impoverished soils, a ...
Antifungal activity of the ribosome-inactivating protein BE27 from sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) against the green mould Penicillium digitatum
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2016-02)
The ribosome-inactivating protein BE27 from sugar beet (Betavulgaris L.) leaves is an apoplastic protein induced by signallingcompounds, such as hydrogen peroxide and salicylic acid, whichhas been reported to be involved ...
