Plant genus is a better predictor of plant effects on soil biotic and abiotic properties than plant invasion status
Increasing evidence suggests that plant invasions are promoted by altered plant-soil interactions. However, we still lack studies exploring...

Identification and interest of molecular markers to monitor plant Pi status
BackgroundInorganic phosphate (Pi) is the sole source of phosphorus for plants. It is a limiting factor for plant yield in most soils worldwide. Due...

Association between socioeconomic status and woody plant diversity in neighborhood parks
Parks play an important role in sustaining the urban ecosystem owing to their plant diversity. Therefore, identification of plant composition in...

Responses of Plant Growth to N or P Addition Vary With Mycorrhizal Strategy
Mycorrhizal fungi form symbiotic relationships with most terrestrial plants. Soil nutrients affect the mycorrhizal symbiotic formation, further...
-
Emerging roles of inositol pyrophosphates in signaling plant phosphorus status and phytohormone signaling
Phosphorus (P) is an indispensable macronutrient serving a variety of functions in plants. Inositol pyrophosphates (PP-InsPs) nutrient messengers...

The ratio of electron transport to assimilation (ETR/AN): underutilized but essential for assessing both equipment’s proper performance and plant status
Main conclusionETR/ A N ratios should be in the range 7.5–10.5 for non-stressed C 3 plants. Ratios extremely out of this range can be reflecting both...

Plant Morpho-Physiological Responses to Changes in the Soil Water Status
Rainfed agriculture is a major source of food production for feeding the world’s population. Crop plants grown under rainfed condition encounter...

Disentangling the Roles of Plant Water Status and Stem Carbohydrate Remobilization on Rice Harvest Index Under Drought
BackgroundHarvest index is an important component of grain yield and is typically reduced by reproductive stage drought stress in rice. Multiple...

Plant–Microbe Interaction for Legume Biofortification: Present Status and Future Challenges
Climate change and the rapidly growing global population, coupled with the problem of hidden hunger, necessitates the implementation of...
-
Variability in mycorrhizal status of plant species is much larger within than between plots in grassland and coastal habitats
Community-level studies linking plant mycorrhizal status to environment usually do not account for within-plot mycorrhizal status variability; thus,...
-
Endophytes Modulate Plant Genes: Present Status and Future Perspectives
Interactions among endophytes and plants are widespread and can vary from neutral or positive or negative. Plants are continually in a functionally...

The status of the CRISPR/Cas9 research in plant–nematode interactions
Main conclusionAs an important biotic stressor, plant–parasitic nematodes afflict global crop productivity. Deployment of CRISPR/Cas9 system that...

A lower labile C input relieves the negative effects of N enrichment on plant assemblages in a semi-arid grassland
Background and aimsN enrichment is a major driver of plant species loss worldwide. Nevertheless, its impacts on local species assemblages (i.e.,...

Threat and Conservation Status of Traditionally Important Plant Species: A Case Study of Indus Valley, Western Ladakh Trans-Himalaya
The study aims to analyze the threat status and conservation pattern of traditionally important plant species in Indus valley of western Ladakh. Five...

Plant Diversity Conservation in the Nepal Himalaya: Status, Policies, and Legislative Frameworks
Plant diversity refers to the extent of genetic variability within species, the abundance of different species across all living organisms (including...
