Leaf dynamics in growth and reproduction of Xanthium
Leaf longevity is controlled by the light gradient in the canopy and also by the nitrogen (N) sink strength in the plant. Stand density may influence leaf dynamics through its effects on light gradient and on plant...
Collaboration between grass seedlings and rhizobacteria to scavenge organic nitrogen in soils
Plants require nitrogen to make proteins, nucleic acids and other biological molecules. It is widely accepted that plants absorb inorganic forms of nitrogen to fill their needs. However, recently it has become clear...
