MAD is the maximum amount of water than can be removed from the soil, expressed as a fraction of total plant available water (PAW), before plant stress occurs (Snyder, 2014) and is used to determine when irrigation is needed to replace the volume of water removed from the soil and any ...
The simple available water capacity (AWC) calculation from surface parameters were compared to vertical profiles of plant available water (PAW). The limit between the vadose and saturated zones was determined by comparison between the shrinkage and compaction pathways of the clay matrix. Patterns of ...
Plant water deficit is initiated as the crop demand for water exceeds the supply. The capacity of plants to meet the demand and thus avoid water deficit depends on their “hydraulic machinery.” This machinery involves firstly the reduction of net radiat
Data fitting was performed using the Michaelis–Menten equation in GraphPad Prism 7. Transient expression of PnGH1 in N. benthamiana The coding region of PnGH1 was cloned into pCAMBIA1300-35s binary vector with Sac I and Xba I restriction digestion sites using primers in Supplementary Table 4...
(PMG, pectin hydrolase) activity than the broth culture ofM. acerina, and the highest activity of PMG was found in medium containing pectin (Fig.4c). The blank (distilled water) and control samples, including steamed PNLs without fungal inoculation (Con_vivo, 8 mg mL−1) andM. ...
Briefly, the spacing index was calculated by the following equation: (P3-P2)/2-V2, where P2 and P3 stand for the maximum intensity of densitometry peaks corresponding to the DNA digestion fragments of di- and trinucleosomes, respectively, and V2 stand for the minimum background intensity in ...
Formulation of root water uptake in a multi-layer soil-plant model: does van den Honert's equation hold? Hydrol Earth Syst Sci 1998;2(1):31-40.Lhomme, J.-P.: Formulation of root water uptake in a multi-layer soil-plant model: does van den Honert's equation hold?, Hydrol. Earth ...
The ability to collect growth data in real time over the life of the plant is a substantial advancement of the imaging technology available on the ISS. The ABRS/GIS hardware allowed us to follow the patterns of root and shoot growth of Arabidopsis seedlings as these structures developed over ...
The water displacement method was used to measure wood-specific gravity. A litter trap (1 m×1 m) was used to collect litter from the tree vicinity. To measure the total tree biomass of each individual plot (100 m2), the allometric equation was used (Chave et al., 2014):AGB=0.0673×...
especially in the places where centralized/decentralizeddrinking water treatmentplants are not operating or not available, common household water treatment practices including boiling should be regularly used (e.g., SARS-CoV-2 can be completely inactivated when heated at 92°C for 15 minutes (Pastorin...
