Characterization of rhizosphere fungi from selenium hyperaccumulator and nonhyperaccumulator plants along the eastern Rocky Mountain Front Range.
PREMISE OF STUDY Selenium-hyperaccumulator plants can store over 1% (dry mass) Se in their tissues, despite the toxicity of this element at high concentrations across eukaryotes. These levels of Se can have widespread effects on the plant's ecological partners, including herbivores and pathogens. Still other partners seem to have coevolved Se tolerance. This is the first known study addressing ...
متن کاملEpizoötic vesicular stomatitis in Colorado, 1982: isolation of virus from insects collected along the northern Colorado Rocky Mountain Front Range.
J. Med. Entomol. 25(5): 343-347 (1988) ABSTRACT Field studies were conducted during an epizootic of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) in Colorado to further assess the possible role of insects in the transmission of VSV. Insects associated with domestic livestock were collected at 11 premises along the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado during the 1982 epizootic of vesicular stomatit...
متن کاملRhizosphere communication of plants, parasitic plants and AM fungi.
Plants use an array of secondary metabolites to defend themselves against harmful organisms and to attract others that are beneficial. However, the attraction of beneficial organisms could also lead to abuse by malevolent organisms. An exciting example of such abuse is the relationship between plants, beneficial mutualistic arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and harmful parasitic plants. Signalling m...
متن کاملMountain Permafrost – A Valid Archive to Study Climate Change? Examples from the Rocky Mountains Front Range of Colorado, USA
Mountain permafrost is highly sensitive to changing air temperatures because they affect the thawing depth of the annual active layer, as well as the time and speed of the refreezing process, mainly in the winter. The Long Term Ecological Research Site (LTER) Niwot Ridge and the Critical Zone Observatory Site (CZO) Green Lakes in Colorado, USA, with their high alpine tundra climate and vegetati...
متن کاملPrecipitation and the Interaction of Seedhead Biological Control Insects for Spotted Knapweed in the Rocky Mountain Front Range
Biological control of spotted knapweed (Centaurea stoebe) is an ongoing topic of research that holds ecological importance due to the extent to which knapweed has spread across the Western United States. Using herbivores (insects) as biological controls of spotted knapweed can be successful at reducing plant density in certain habitats. However, the exact relationship among the insects, knapwee...
