The optimal partitioning theory predicts that plants of a given species acclimate to different environments by allocating a larger proportion of biomass to the organs acquiring the most limiting resource. Are similar patterns found across species adapted to environments with contrasting levels of abiotic stress? We tested the optimal partitioning t...

Background and objectives: Cancer coagulopathy is thought to be partially due to the up-regulation of tissue factor (TF), thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT) and soluble P-selectin (sP-selectin). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical significance of TF, TAT and sP-selectin in patients with pancreatic cancer. Materials and methods: ...

Northeast China is persistently affected by heavy nitrogen (N) deposition. Studying the induced variation in leaf traits is pivotal to develop an understanding of the adaptive plasticity of affected species. This study thus assesses effects of increased N deposition on leaf morphological and anatomical traits and their correlation among and with bi...

Dominants are key species that shape ecosystem functioning. Plant dominance is typically assessed on aboveground features. However, belowground, individual species may not scale proportionally in relation to their aboveground dimension. This is especially important in ecosystems where most biomass is allocated belowground, including grassy and shru...

Climate warming induces the necessity to increase the drought resistance of shade-obligate juvenile trees in sub-tropical forests. Chitosan oligosaccharide (COS) is a biopolymer derived from the marine resource that has attracted accumulative attention to induce and promote a plant&rsquo / s resistance to abiotic stress. Buddhist pine (Podocarpus m...

It is predicted that global change combined with urbanization will impact increasingly on the society and terrestrial ecosystem in the Guangdong-Hongkong-Macao Greater Bay Area of China (GBA). In this context, the cities in GBA began to plant a variety of urban trees since 2000 which are considered to play an important role in fixing carbon, improv...

AbstractThe biomass allocation, leaf traits, and the CO2 assimilation rate in invasive Epilobium adenocaulon Hausskn and E. pseudorubescens A.K. Skvortsov and indigenous E. palustre L. were studied in the Middle Urals. E. adenocaulon had the maximum height, and E. palustre had the largest leaf canopy diameter. The most compact in linear sizes speci...

通过盆栽试验,研究5个水平的施氮量(N0,0 g·kg-1;N1,0.05 g·kg-1;N2,0.1 g·kg-1;N3,0.15 g·kg-1;N4,0.2 g·kg-1)对8个不同藜麦品种幼苗生长的影响。结果表明: 1)不同施氮量处理下,藜麦品种GB22和OY的生物量最大,而品种B2的生物量最小。品种B2的花质量比最大,品种GB22的茎质量比最大,品种R1的根质量比最大,品种W23的叶质量比最大。2)施氮显著影响藜麦幼苗的生长。在较低施氮量(N1、N2)下,叶片最大净光合速率、植株生物量积累都比对照(N0)明显增加;在较高施氮量(N3、N4)下,藜麦叶片光合速率出现降低趋势,生物量积累减少。品种和施氮量对植株生物量有显著的交互作用,表明不同藜麦品种对施氮量的响应不同。品种R1、MY11...

Tree Physiology
Tropical canopies are complex, with multiple canopy layers and pronounced gap dynamics contributing to their high species diversity and productivity. An important reason for this complexity is the large variation in shade tolerance among different tree species. At present, we lack a clear understanding of which plant traits control this variation, ...
