Excerpts

When taking all ASVs attributed to either one of these genera into account, both showed a trend toward higher abundance in the strawberry rhizosphere, with a significant change observed only within the first 2 ( Mucilaginibacter ) or 3 ( Granulicella ) weeks ( Figure 2B ).

When we only considered the ‘Nonpareil’ variety, we observed an increasing trend in accuracy ( R 2 ) similar to the per-row models ( Figure 6 ).

MSI was reduced under Al-stress conditions when compared with control conditions, although highly significant reductions were observed in the case of the sensitive cultivar (22.9%) as compared with the tolerant ones (7.7%).

Similarly, the convex hull displayed a highly significant correlation with calliper length and with the weight of third, fourth, and fifth leaves.

For the phosphorus concentration, extremely significant difference was observed among the AM and non-AM of all shrub organs (leaves, stems, and roots) ( Figures 3G–I ).

However, a clear trend was missing, as the stronger cleavage activity was on either library L2 or L3 depending on the choices of cleavage sites.

Response of Wheat Breaking Strength to Light Quality in Population The results, as shown in Table 3 , indicated that both varieties showed a decreasing trend in folding resistance from the flowering to the waxing stage.

Response of Wheat Stem Dry Weight per Length to Light Quality in Population Dry weight per length in the wheat stem of both varieties showed a trend of increasing and then decreasing from anthesis to dough stage.

Exogenous application of DE-GRSP, however, almost significantly decreased root total length, surface area, and volume compared to the control, with increasing DE-GRSP strength, except that there was no difference in root volume between 1⁄4 DE-GRSP and the control.

On the other hand, exogenous DE-GRSP application showed a decreasing trend on root IAA and IBA content.

The quadratic equation further improved the relationship ( R 2 = 0.7942) and it indicates an increasing trend for PH in the recently released varieties.

Additionally, with the increase of salt concentration, shoot DW, root DW, and the increasing rate of plant height all showed a trend of reduction, while the specific leaf area did not show any significant change ( P > 0.05).

The peroxidase (POD) showed an increasing trend under salt stress.

The KNI exhibited a decreasing trend at the early stage and then an increasing trend at the latter stage.

There was a decreasing trend of K leaf with increasing RDM of sweet potato.

Unlike chlorophyll content, the Car content of different stresses showed an increasing trend with the decrease of water potential, but the differences among the three stresses were not significant ( P ≥ 0.05; Figure 4D ).

Total anthocyanin content showed an increasing trend by development stage, while the total flavonol and proanthocyanidin content decreased ( Figure 2A ).

One of those genes, Morus probable carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase 4 ( LOC21405962 ), is related to the synthesis of abscisic acid aldehyde, which exhibited extremely significant difference in the triploid compared with the control ( Supplementary Figure 4E ), implying that ABA hormonal signaling might be an important factor affecting stress defense and polyploid morphology after increasing the number of chromosomes.

Soil drought strongly affected the terpenoid content of plants, usually showing an increasing trend in total terpenes ( Turtola et al., 2003 ; Jiang, 2012 ).

AMF smooth terms were retained in the P and N soils showing a positive trend with SDW Rel. in both soils.

A similar result was found in the earlier studies, where shaded young avocado leaves showed a decreasing trend in the total L pool after sudden exposure to sunlight, despite the deep oxidation of Lx, which may be related to photo-oxidation of L ( Förster et al., 2009 , 2011 ).

(3) The detection accuracy of the algorithm increases with the addition of different components, nonetheless there is a decreasing trend in terms of the detection speed.

This reduction in PAR due to cloud cover does not seem to be highly significant in the Dinghushan Biosphere Reserve (according to the findings shown in Figure 5B ), and this is perhaps the result of increased transpiration and stomatal conductance during the rainy season that influences gas exchanges and, hence, NEE.

In POD activity, there were extremely significant increase at S3 and S4 between HS and CK ( Figure 1E ).

Our results highlight the importance of LaMATE2-dependent isoflavonoid release in the early step of nodulation, since LaMATE2 silencing leads to a highly significant reduction (a. -80%) of nodules in LaMATE2 -RNAi compared to empty-vector transformed roots ( Figures 5C ; 6B , Supplementary Figure S4 ).
