Shifts in stomatal traits following the domestication of plant species.
Stomata are the major gates regulating substrate availability for photosynthesis and water loss. Although both processes are critical to yield and to resource-use efficiency, we lack a comprehensive picture on how domestication and further breeding have impacted on leaf stomata. To fill this gap, stomatal sizes and densities were screened in cultivated and wild ancestor representatives of a uni...
متن کاملPlant species and functional groups response to exclosure in Lazour rangeland of Tehran province
The study of vegetation dynamics under grazed and non-grazed rangelands is one of the most important prerequisites for range improvement. In this research, vegetation composition and the vegetation functional groups were compared in an exclosure site (livestock excluded for six years) and grazed area in semi-steppe rangelands in Tehran province. Systematic random sampling technique through the...
متن کاملThe functional microbiome of arthropods
Many studies on the microbiome of animals have been reported but a comprehensive analysis is lacking. Here we present a meta-analysis on the microbiomes of arthropods and their terrestrial habitat, focusing on the functional profile of bacterial communities derived from metabolic traits that are essential for microbial life. We report a detailed analysis of probably the largest set of biochemic...
متن کاملHigh N, dry: Experimental nitrogen deposition exacerbates native shrub loss and nonnative plant invasion during extreme drought.
Hotter, longer, and more frequent global change-type drought events may profoundly impact terrestrial ecosystems by triggering widespread vegetation mortality. However, severe drought is only one component of global change, and ecological effects of drought may be compounded by other drivers, such as anthropogenic nitrogen (N) deposition and nonnative plant invasion. Elevated N deposition, for ...
متن کاملThe effect of waterway distance on species diversity and Plant Functional Groups in mountainous rangelands of Anbaran Chai, Ardabil
The plant communities locating at the margins of the waterways play a vital role in the ecological processes and ecosystem services in the semi-arid mountainous regions. In this study, variations of plant diversity and composition at different distances from the waterway and its slope aspects were investigated. For this purpose, 15 sub-basins with a variety of area and length of waterway, in bo...
