Plants have evolved complex physical and chemical defense systems that allow them to withstand herbivory infestation. Composed of a mixture very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) their derivatives, cuticular wax constitutes the first line against herbivores. Here, we report function Glossy 8 (ZmGL8), which encodes 3-ketoacyl reductase belonging acid elongase complex, in orchestrating production jasmonic (JA)-mediated defenses herbivores maize (Zea mays). The mutation GL8 enhanced by activating...
Samples of fresh leaves and leaf litter, as well soils taken from 0-10 10-30 cm layers, were collected in four types typical forest ecosystems both subtropical (Phyllostachys pubescens, Pinus massoniana, Cycloba lanopsisglauca, Cunninghamia lanceolata stands) tropical climates (Vatica mangachapoi, Musa basjoo, Heveabrasiliensis, Acacia mangium for measurement PhytOC (phytolith-occluded organic carbon) contents. The phytoliths soil samples extracted by a microwave digestion method their...
Elevated atmospheric CO2 concentration, altered precipitation regime, increased nitrogen deposition, and land cover change have not only changed the physical chemical properties of forest soils, but also affected plant growth microbial activity, with concequences on soil carbon cycles, including CH4 uptake. In this study, we summarized important role uptake in forests under global scenarios. The differences responses as well underlying mechanisms to were reviewed. concentration inhibits...
