Excerpts

Both analyzed factors (Y and C) exerted a highly significant influence (Pr < 0.0001) on the graft union diameter, whereas the influence of the C × Y interaction on any of the examined traits was not significant.

For each of the two soils, there was apparently a positive trend between the mean and difference of the results that were obtained with the two approaches.

Plants exposed to stressful conditions exhibited a decreasing trend in photochemical quenching and an increase in non-photochemical quenching parameters, although non-photochemical quenching parameters also decrease at severe stressful conditions ( Murchie and Lawson, 2013 ).

Phosphorus showed a trend of rise, then reduced, and the final leveling off, and 1 μM sodium selenite treatment showed phosphorus accumulated in cucumber seedling roots the most.

Hence, there has been an increasing trend of recent studies investigating the sequenced or combined application of GSH with different bioactive(s), which can be categorized into three main types: plant metabolites (primary & secondary) and biostimulants.

ANS expression showed a trend similar to that of DFR only until 5 h UV-B treatment.

After 21 days, all the seedlings grew higher than those of 14 days, and the seedling height showed an apparent trend that constantly decreased with colchicine concentration.

As for the activities of SSS, they showed a trend that decreased firstly at the radical emerging stage and then increased slightly and constantly during the following stages ( Figure 5B ).

In addition, the diameter and the weight of seedlings were also inhibited in the media containing colchicine, showing a decreasing trend with colchicine concentrations ( Figures 3B,C ).

(2008) reported that the chalkiness of a japonica “Asominori” and an indica “IR24” cross showed a decreasing trend under eCO 2 .

Biomass The overall competition significantly affected the aboveground biomass of Trifolium ( Table 2 ), with a decreasing trend of Trifolium biomass per plant with increasing presence of Lolium ( Figure 3 ).

Mycorrhizal Dependency and Neighbor Effects In Trifolium , mycorrhizal growth dependency (MGD) was not affected by competition or fertilization, while both factors did affect MGD in Lolium ( Table 1 ), although a clear trend in the latter species was absent ( Figure 6 ).

Phytophthora infestans AUDPC disease resistance host mixtures disease mitigation agriculture sustainability ecological disease management multiple regression National Natural Science Foundation of China 10.13039/501100001809 31901861 31460368 When data from the two-component mixtures in Experiment 1 was analysed separately, PDR increased linearly as DHR increased, but this association was only marginally significant ( Figure 2A ).

During digestion, the bioaccessibility of all the identified compounds showed a decreasing trend with the lowest values at the end of the intestinal phase.

The potential impact this could have in reducing use of nitrogen fertilizers, and for overall growth of plants where fertilizers are not available, is quite significant.

Specially, SNPs that are located in the stable QTL regions showed extremely significant difference between alleles ( Figure 4 ).

Expression levels of novel_miR_186 in “Roufurong” increased gradually and peaked at S4, whereas those of PsMYB2 and PsWRKY1 showed a slightly increasing trend throughout the blooming stages.

GWAS revealed a highly significant association of fruit shape categories with CaOFP20 markers on chromosome 10 ( Table 5 ; Figure 8A ), whereas no association of CaOFP20 markers was observed for fruit shape index (data not shown).

The RH in 35 sites showed decreasing trends by −1.00 to −0.02% a –1 , while that in the other one site showed an increasing trend by 0.07% a –1 .

During 3 consecutive years, a decreasing trend of low contamination of toxic metals/metalloids was observed in an ionome study of potato tubers ( Muntean et al., 2019 ).

Interestingly, in comparison to the soluble sugars, starch showed a negative trend where it remained almost similar in the irrigated plants, whereas it declined with stress in the non-irrigated plants and exhibited a 2.5-fold decrease on day 15 of stress.

scoparia showed a decreasing trend, with a biggest decrease of 28.81% (T 0 × W 60 vs.

Impacts of Climatic and Vegetation Factors on River Runoff Across all six river basins, the river runoff showed different degrees of decrease (two river basins showed a significant trend, three basins showed a marginally significant trend, and one basin didn’t show a significant trend), while GPP_GS (except the Hailaer river basin) and GSL showed an increase and delay trend during 1982–2015, respectively ( Figures 3 , 6 ).

There is a clear trend of increasing ET that, we found, both humid and semi-humid basins experienced the whole basin from 1982 to 2015, and the degree of increase can be divided into three levels ( Figure 5 and Supplementary Figure 4B ).

The sequence annotation results of CAZy database showed that healthy rhizosphere soil, disease rhizosphere soil, healthy root endophyte, and disease root endophyte show an increasing trend by turns.
