Examining effects of elevated temperature, pH, and salinity on early growth of Zizania palustris L. to improve restoration outcomes in Michigan lakes
Naturally occurring populations of Zizania palustris have declined in abundance since the 1800s. Due to its cultural, economic, and ecological...

Evidence of early genetic variation in survival and growth traits of baobab (Adansonia digitata L.)—the way forward for domestication and breeding
The results of a Adansonia digitata provenance and clone trials situated in Sadore (Niger) and Samanko (Mali) indicate genetic variation at both...

Exposure to different temperature regimes at early life stages affects hatching, developmental morphology, larval growth, and muscle cellularity in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss
In this study, the effects of temperature on hatching, yolk-sac absorption, larval metamorphosis, post-metamorphic growth, developmental morphology,...

Effects of temperature and salinity on the larval early development, growth, and settlement of the diploid, triploid, and tetraploid Pacific oyster “Haida No. 2” strain
Tetraploids play a crucial role in the large-scale production of all-triploid Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas by mating with diploids. For nursery...

A Differential Phytohormone Profile in the Aerial Part and Roots as a Response to Water Stress Underlying Morphophysiological and Biochemical Changes in Two Inbred Sunflower Lines at Early Growth Stage
Water stress is a primary abiotic stress that produces several morphological, physiological, biochemical and molecular alterations, which affect crop...

Ectoparasites exposure affects early growth and mouth colour in nestlings of a cavity-nesting raptor
AbstractNest-dwelling ectoparasites are a major source of stress for growing nestling birds, as they can negatively impact on growth and physiology,...

The synthesis and secretion of key substances in the flavonoid metabolic pathway responding to different nitrogen sources during early growth stages in Robinia pseudoacacia
Background and aimsLegumes can obtain nitrogen from mineral nitrogen and symbiotic nitrogen; however, the regulatory mechanisms by which legume...
