The most crucial function of lowland-confined floodplains with low slopes is to support flood conveyance and fasten floods; however, obstacles can hinder it. management riparian vegetation often neglected, though woody species increase the roughness levels. aims are (1) determine branch density various types in zone up level artificial levees (up 5 m), (2) assess spatial distribution densely ve...

This study investigated soil development resulting from revegetation in a coal mining area northern Henan, China. The effectiveness of six distinct methods for reclaiming mine-degraded lands was assessed. These employed various species such as Ulmus pumila, Amorpha fruticosa, Robinia pseudoacacia, Jerusalem artichoke, and Sea buckthorn. Over three-year reclamation period, analyzed to identify t...

amorpha-4,11-diene synthase (ads) is a key enzyme in biochemical pathway of the antimalarial agent artemisinin. an agrobacterium-mediated transformation was carried out to express a synthetic ads gene in green microalga chlamydomonas reinhardtii strain 125c with bacterial strains gv3101 and lba4404. the foreign gene was optimized based on codon usage bias of the microalga. integration of the ad...

Arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi (AMF) can colonize the roots of Amorpha fruticosa, a perennial leguminous woody shrub, and form arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM). AMF have significant promoting effects on A. fruticosa growth as the intensity of fungal colonization increases. Taking AMF-A. fruticosa symbionts as the experimental material, gel-free isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTR...

Caterpillar defenses have been researched extensively, and, although most studies focus on visually communicated signals, little is known about the role that sounds play in defense. We report on whistling, a novel form of sound production for caterpillars and rare for insects in general. The North American walnut sphinx (Amorpha juglandis) produces whistle 'trains' ranging from 44 to 2060 ms in...
