biotic factors: lessons drawn from rotifers in the Middle Loire, a meandering river monitored from 1995 to 2002, during low flow periods. Hydrobiologia 546, 457-472.Lair, N., 2005. Abiotic Vs. Biotic Factors: L
The brown meagre (Sciaena umbra) is a threatened species with high commercial value, currently classified as vulnerable in the Mediterranean region14,15. Heavy exploitation of this species has caused a drastic reductions of their populations and MPAs are now considered the most effective management to...
such as social interactions and reproduction8. Ultimately, whether populations persist depends upon the nature of the stressor (and whether it is acuteversuslong term) and the ability of animals to facultatively adjust their patterns of
The β-glucosidase FaBG3 regulates strawberry fruit development and ripening, as well as biotic and abiotic stress responses [61]. FaBG3 expression increases during fruit ripening and is promoted by ABA. For its transient silencing, cloning was performed into pTRV2, agroinfiltration in ‘Albion’ ...
Monitoring landscapes in times of climate change patterns is a crucial issue, moreover, in the analyzed Mediterranean area, one of the major global candidates to develop land degradation stresses and consequential desertification phenomena. The research presented here is developed in the Mediterranean Bas...
The analysis showed that the taphonomic syndromes mainly observed on the examined skeletal material include a dark colour of the samples, both biotic (of biological, plant and entomological origin) and abiotic encrustations (e.g. minerals, carbonated deposits) such as post-mortem fractures, erosion...
Among the genes that were differentially expressed between the wild type and mutant, two functional categories related to the response to stress or biotic and abiotic stimulus were over-represented. Under salt stress conditions, all gene functional categories were represented equally in both the mutant...
. Microenvironments can be created by abiotic conditions such as the shade of a large boulder or a wet streambank or by biotic induced factors such as the shade cast by a large tree or shrub. They can be as large as a desert oasis or as small as the area beneath a desert rock. A...
Finally, the origin of the event is always clear from the interpreted curve (similarly to the spatial rank). Of course, it is usually easy to make a distinction between abiotic and biotic events. However, detailed classification of the episodic events on the basis of their origin would be a...
As the Paukkajanvaara former pilot scale uranium mine area is classified as final disposal site of nuclear waste, complied with the Radiation Act, samples from the lower soil or sediment layers could not be taken, as the protecting soil layers are to be remained intact. Geiger counter was ...
