The Science of the total environment.Sci Total Environ.2016 Oct 1;566-567:76-85. doi: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2016.04.210. Epub 2016 May 20.
The effect of contact time, solution pH, and the presence of humic acid (HA) on the combined removal of As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni and Zn is investigated in batch tests using alumina, granulated activated carbon (GAC), and bauxsol coated sand (BCS) as sorbents. It is found that the equilibrium time for Cd,

Gibberellin stimulates regrowth after defoliation of sheepgrass (Leymus chinensis) by regulating expression of fructan-related genes.

Cai Y1, Shao L2, Li X3, Liu G4, Chen S5.
Journal of plant research.J Plant Res.2016 Sep;129(5):935-44. doi: 10.1007/s10265-016-0832-1. Epub 2016 May 23.
Gibberellins (GAs) affect forage growth and development; however, it is largely unknown how GAs regulate the metabolism of fructan (an important polysaccharide reserve in many cereals) and the regrowth of forage plants after defoliation. To explore the mechanism of the responses of defoliated sheepg

Clonal Expansion and Migration of a Highly Virulent, Defoliating Lineage of Verticillium dahliae.

Milgroom MG1, Del Mar Jiménez-Gasco M1, Olivares-García C1, Jiménez-Díaz RM1.
Phytopathology.Phytopathology.2016 Sep;106(9):1038-46. doi: 10.1094/PHYTO-11-15-0300-R. Epub 2016 Jun 23.
We used a population genomics approach to test the hypothesis of clonal expansion of a highly fit genotype in populations of Verticillium dahliae. This fungal pathogen has a broad host range and can be dispersed in contaminated seed or other plant material. It has a highly clonal population structur

Glomerella leaf spot (GLS) caused by Glomerella cingulata is a newly emergent disease that results in severe defoliation and fruit spots in apple. Currently, there are no effective means to control this disease except for the traditional fungicide sprays. Induced resistance by elicitors against path
