Environmental variability promotes plant invasion.

Global environmental change not only entails changes in mean environmental conditions but also in their variability. Changes in climate variability are often associated with altered disturbance regimes and temporal patterns of resource availability. Here we show that increased variability of soil nutrients strongly promotes another key process of global change, plant invasion. In experimental p...

evaluation of plant-to-plant variability of medicinal plants

many of precision farming studies have shown a high plant-to-plant variability for many crops. this study was conducted to evaluate the plant-to-plant variability of three medicinal crops in comparison with corn as a long term commercial species. thus a field experiment was performed in 2009-2010 in ferdowsi university of mashhad, research farm. in this experiment plant morphological characters...

Natural genetic variability reduces recalcitrance in poplar.

BACKGROUND Lignin content and structure are known to affect recalcitrance of lignocellulosic biomass to chemical/biochemical conversion. Previously, we identified rare Populus trichocarpa natural variants with significantly reduced lignin content. Because reduced lignin content may lower recalcitrance, 18 rare variants along with 4 comparators, and BESC standard Populus was analyzed for composi...
