Excerpts

Results of the ANOVA demonstrated that the differences among the cassava accessions ( p ≤ 0.001) used in this study were highly significant for all traits and the magnitude was even higher for the seasons and locations, except for branch type, which was not significant across locations ( Table 2 ). 2.2.

chinense chimera displayed a decreasing trend compared to T. chinense .

Recently, certain species of wild plants and fungi have received a great deal of attention in Mediterranean countries, and at the same time, the consumption of lesser-known plants that may be significant for prevention of illnesses has been documented.

At the class level, the relative abundance of bacteria displayed a decreasing trend in the bacterial communities of T1 and T2 treatments at the S1 stage.

soja exhibited a decreasing trend in MDA content as the drought stress persisted ( Figure 4 ).

We found that the cutting system with the lowest pH at the second and third depths had higher SOC concentrations than the other two systems, what is in accordance with study showing a significant trend of increasing SOC concentration with increasing soil acidity [ 52 ].

However, there was a trend towards significance in the interaction for the number of pro-embryos ( p -value of 0.097).

Of note, the single fruit weight, length, width, and side diameter showed a trend of HV > BF >RG ( Figure 4 a and Table 2 ).

The dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) and dissolved total nitrogen (DTN) content generally showed an increasing trend.

Though the total nitrogen (TN) and available nitrogen (AN) contents showed a decreasing trend during the fruit growth period, TN and AN content in the living grass mulch treatments (HV and RG) were higher than those in the BF treatment.

Additionally, NSC accumulation in stems showed an increasing trend with rising temperatures.

However, the chlorophyll a/b ratio showed a decreasing trend in both the CK and the treatments, with the ratio in the treatments higher than the CK in the S1 and S2 stages, and lower than the CK in the S3 and S4 stages.

In tillers, the phenolic content showed an increasing trend, with treatments consistently higher than the CK.

According to previous research, oil synthesis of rapeseed seeds began at approximately 20 daf and peaked at 40 daf [ 60 ], with a decreasing trend in the later stages of seed maturation [ 61 ].

With the continuous increase in temperature and precipitation, the SLA tends to increase, while the LDMC shows a decreasing trend.

junos rootstock selections, an extremely significant correlation of 0.74 between total sugar (TS) and total soluble solids (TSS).

Specifically, the expression of these genes, OfJMJ19 , OfSRT3 , OfSDG55 , OfHDT7 , OfHDMA 4 and OfHAG9 , showed a decreasing trend during flower opening and senescence ( Figure 12 a–f).

The highly significant positive correlations between osmoregulatory substances and antioxidant enzyme activities, as well as between H 2 O 2 and membrane permeability indicators, suggest a coordinated response to mitigate cold damage.

However, there was a highly significant difference observed between organs, regardless of plant type, and also between the same organs of the two plants.

Pairwise comparisons showed that the differences between all populations were highly significant ( Table 1 ).

Conversely, the protocatechuic acid content did not exhibit a clear trend: it increased already at a CUO of 2.75 mmol m −2 (+97%) before reaching a maximum at a CUO of 4.93 mmol m −2 , came back to the control level at a CUO of 6.95 mmol m −2 , and increased again until the end of the exposure (more than 18-fold than the control; Figure 4 c).

Each treatment showed a trend of gradually increasing yields with increasing nitrogen application rates until 300 kg ha −1 , but decreased once the nitrogen supply reached 375 kg ha −1 .

With the decline of flood stress and the increase in soil nitrogen level, the plant strategy has a clear trend of transition to the R strategy.

On the contrary, in this study, there was a significant negative correlation between mesophyllic C and epidermal SiO 2 in the SiO 2 treatment and a marginally significant negative correlation between mesophyllic Ca and SiO 2 in the SiO 2 NP treatment ( Table A1 ).

Figure 3 A,B showed that the Na + content in the main root and lateral root of the two rootstocks showed an increasing trend, and the Na + content accumulated in the lateral root was higher than that in the main root.
