Meloidogyne incognita Fatty Acid- and Retinol-binding Protein (Mi-FAR-1) Affects Nematode Infection of Plant Roots and the Attachment of Pasteuria penetrans Endospores
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-11-01)Root-knot nematode (RKN) Meloidogyne incognita is an economically important pest of crops. Pasteuria penetrans, is a nematode hyperparasitic bacterium capable of suppressing the reproduction of RKN and thereby useful for ... -
Metabolic cold acclimation of 'Polka' and 'Honeoye' strawberries under natural field conditions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)The winter hardiness of strawberry varieties used in perennial production systems varies greatly. Still, little information is available on how plant metabolism adapts to cold and freezing temperatures under natural ... -
Metabolic pathways for biosynthesis and degradation of starch in Tetraselmis chui during nitrogen deprivation and recovery
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-04-29)Tetraselmis chui is known to accumulate starch when subjected to stress. This phenomenon is widely studied for the purpose of industrial production and process development. Yet, knowledge about the metabolic pathways ... -
Metabolite profiling reveals novel multi-level cold responses in the model Fragaria vesca (woodland strawberry)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-02-25)Winter freezing damage is a crucial factor in overwintering crops such as the octoploid strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) when grown in a perennial cultivation system. Our study aimed at assessing metabolic processes ... -
Metabolomics: A High-throughput Screen for Biochemical and Bioactivity Diversity in Plants and Crops
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Plants and crops contain a staggering diversity of compounds, many of which have pharmacological activity towards a variety of diseases. These properties have been exploited by traditional and modern medicine providing ... -
MetaComNet: A random forest- based framework for making spatial predictions of plant– pollinator interactions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-11-12)1. Predicting plant–pollinator interaction networks over space and time will improve our understanding of how environmental change is likely to impact the functioning of ecosystems. Here we propose a framework for producing ... -
A Metafrontier Analysis on the Performance of Grain-Producing Regions in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-02-01)Previous application of the stochastic frontier model and subsequent measurement of the performance of the crop sector can be criticized for the estimated production function relying on the assumption that the underlying ... -
Meteorological factors associated with the timing and abundance of Hymenoscyphus fraxineus spore release
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-11-11)The ascomycete Hymenoscyphus fraxineus has spread across most of the host range of European ash with a high level of mortality, causing important economic, cultural and environmental effects. We present a novel method ... -
Method comparison of indirect assessments of understory leaf area index (LAIu): A case study across the extended network of ICOS forest ecosystem sites in Europe
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-05-31)Leaf area index (LAI) is a key ecological indicator for describing the structure of canopies and for modelling energy exchange between atmosphere and biosphere. While LAI of the forest overstory can be accurately assessed ... -
Methyl jasmonate, salicylic acid, and oxalic acid affects growth, inducible defenses, and pine weevil resistance in Norway spruce
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-07-06)The large pine weevil (Hylobius abietis) is a major regeneration pest in commercial forestry. Pesticide application has historically been the preferred control method, but pesticides are now being phased out in several ... -
Methylome, transcriptome, and phenotype changes induced by temperature conditions experienced during sexual reproduction in Fragaria vesca
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-06-21)Temperature conditions experienced during embryogenesis and seed development may induce epigenetic changes that increase phenotypic variation in plants. Here we investigate if embryogenesis and seed development at two ... -
Métodos para la extracción de nematodos presentes en suelos del agrupamiento Ferralítico en Cuba
(Others, 2016)El objetivo de este trabajo fue determinar los métodos más efecientes para la extracción de las comunidades de nematodos presentes en suelos del agrupamiento Ferralíco. Se muestrearon las localidades de Güines y San José ... -
Microbial biogas production from hydrolysis lignin: Insight into lignin structural changes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Background: The emerging cellulosic bioethanol industry will generate huge amounts of lignin-rich residues that may be converted into biogas by anaerobic digestion (AD) to increase the output of energy carriers from the ... -
Microbiome of seven full-scale anaerobic digestion plants in South Korea: Effect of feedstock and operational parameters
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-01-28)In this study, the microbiomes linked with the operational parameters in seven mesophilic full-scale AD plants mainly treating food waste (four plants) and sewage sludge (three plants) were analyzed. The results obtained ... -
Microcosm test for pesticide fate assessment in planted water filters: 13C,15N-labeled glyphosate as an example
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-11-01)Planted filters are often used to remove pesticides from runoff water. However, the detailed fate of pesticides in the planted filters still remains elusive. This hampers an accurate assessment of environmental risks of ... -
