Abstract Aims We introduce ReSurveyEurope — a new data source of resurveyed vegetation plots in Europe, compiled by collaborative network scientists. describe the scope this initiative, provide an overview currently available data, governance, contribution rules, and accessibility. In addition, we outline further steps, including potential research questions. Results includes from all habitats. Version 1.0 contains 283,135 observations (i.e., individual surveys each plot) 79,190 sampled 449...
Common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench, CB) and Tartary tataricum (L.) Gaertn., TB) are used in human nutrition. The idea to screen the haploid phase for genes affecting low amylose concentration opens possibility effective search of (waxy) genotypes CB populations. Self-pollinated homozygous plants TB might allow us use a part endosperm screening content. Phenolic substances have significant inhibitory effect on digestion proteins, thus metabolites may impact protein digestibility....
The biofortification of crops can counteract human diseases, including selenium (Se) and iodine (I) deficiencies in the diet. Little is known about effects combinations Se I on microgreens seeds, or their accumulation these tissues. present study aimed to evaluate (SeO32- , SeO42- ) (I- IO3- common buckwheat seeds with respect addition Se, + yield physiological biochemical characteristics.In combination treatments, (600-800 g m-2 was 50-70% higher than for alone. respiratory potential also...
Common buckwheat and Tartary are pseudocereals grow worldwide. Due to the high concentration of flavonoids, buckwheats potential sources smart food. common traditionally grown in mountain regions China, Korea, northern parts India, Bhutan, Nepal. Plants that elevations exposed intense UV radiation, which can harm susceptible sites plants. defend themselves against radiation by synthesising UV-absorbing compounds. Drought will probably become more frequent due climate change. drought...
This article describes the effect of extreme water level events and temperatures on primary productivity habitus common reed (Phragmites australis) growing in lake riparian habitats at intermittent Lake Cerknica between 2007 2021. At each sampling site, above-ground biomass, leaf biomass shoot density per m2, number internodes leaves plant, average height, basal diameter ratio flowering plants total plant were determined. Stand properties varied significantly locations, with exception...
Tartary buckwheat ( Fagopyrum tataricum ) is a semiwild plant grown in the Himalaya region. Due to its high concentration of flavonoids and trace elements it interest for cultivation other countries as well. The feasibility increasing Se grain green parts has not yet been investigated. aim this investigation was thus determine different edible treated with concentrations Na selenate using techniques. In plants soil fertilized once 0.5 10 mg L −1 , efficiently translocated from roots leaves...
Ambient UV radiation is recognised as an important environmental factor in the regulation of plant growth and development, selenium (Se) a beneficial nutrient that can increase tolerance to different constraints. The effects on hybrid buckwheat plants full (+UV) reduced (−UV) ambient without (−Se) with (+Se) foliar Se treatment (10 mg L−1 sodium selenate) provided four conditions Se−UV–, Se–+UV, +Se−UV +Se+UV. Plant morphological, biochemical physiological properties were examined, along...
Common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) is a robust plant with high resistance to different environmental constraints. It contains levels of calcium oxalate (CaOx) druse crystals, although their role remains obscure. The objective was examine the effects water shortage on biomass partition and leaf traits formation CaOx crystals in common buckwheat. Buckwheat plants were exposed favorable reduced availability for 28 days. element composition morphological, biochemical, physiological...
The elements selenium (Se) and iodine (I) are both crucial for the normal functioning of thyroid. Biofortification with these is particularly feasible in areas where they show a deficit. Iodine can have positive effects on different plants when applied at correct concentrations. their simultaneous addition plant physiology biochemistry, as well seed germination sprout biomass, were studied pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo L. ssp. pepo). To study effect Se I sprouts, sprouts grown from seeds soaked...
Abstract In field experiments, tartary buckwheat and hybrid were foliarly sprayed with an aqueous solution of sodium selenate (20 mg Se L -1 ). treated plants, the selenium content was significantly higher than in controls, irrespective plant part taxon buckwheat. The highest average concentrations found seeds. main species seeds Semethionine. Selenium-sprayed plants had photochemical efficiency photosystem II both taxa electron transport system activity buckwheat, suggesting a positive...
