Symbiotic fungi and clonal plant physiology

Genome Evolution in Plant Pathogenic and Symbiotic Fungi

Symbiotic fungi alter plant chemistry that discourages leaf-cutting ants.

Fungal symbionts that live asymptomatically inside plant tissues (endophytes) can influence plant-insect interactions. Recent work has shown that damage by leaf-cutting ants, a major Neotropical defoliator, is reduced to almost half in plants with high densities of endophytes. We investigated changes in the phenotype of leaves that could influence ants' behavior to result in the reduction of fo...

Physiology of Fungi

The historical perspective here presented provides background for current research in neurophysiology and psychology. This reviewer is not competent to judge the adequacy or the accuracy of this background. It may well be the best that is now available in English. Soviet psychologists are at work on the history of Russian psychology. S. L. Rubenstein has published a volume on the life and works...

Effects of Climate Change and Drought-Stress on Plant Physiology

Drought is still limited in most crops is produced. Morphological and physiological knowledge to improve drought resistance under drought conditions created problems important is the fact each of these genetic relationships and processes associated with the exact amount of important plant and grain yield is unknown. The other hand, heritability of grain yield under water is reduced. Improve the...
