Use of translational fusions to express functional Klebsiella oxytoca dinitrogenase reductase in plant mitochondriaNARA Subscribed
Engineering crop plants with the biological nitrogen fixation pathway is a longstanding goal of modern agriculture. Dinitrogenase reductase (NifH) is a critical component of the biological nitrogen fixation pathway, with multiple roles in metal cofactor assembly and catalysis. This enzyme must be folded correctly as a soluble homodimer and loaded with the [4Fe-4S] metallocluster for function. Previous studies have found that K...
Motivation Here, we make available a second version of the BioTIME database, which compiles records of abundance estimates for species in sample events of ecological assemblages through time. The updated version expands version 1.0 of the database by doubling the number of studies and includes substantial additional curation to the taxonomic accuracy of the records, as well as the metadata. Moreover, we now provide an R packag...
Seventy five percent of the world's food crops benefit from insect pollination. Hence, there has been increased interest in how global change drivers impact this critical ecosystem service. Because standardized data on crop pollination are rarely available, we are limited in our capacity to understand the variation in pollination benefits to crop yield, as well as to anticipate changes in this service, develop predictions, and...
Motivation The BioTIME database contains raw data on species identities and abundances in ecological assemblages through time. These data enable users to calculate temporal trends in biodiversity within and amongst assemblages using a broad range of metrics. BioTIME is being developed as a community‐led open‐source database of biodiversity time series. Our goal is to accelerate and facilitate quantitative analysis of temporal...
Leaf Area and Above- and Belowground Growth Responses of Loblolly Pine to Nutrient and Water AdditionsNARA Subscribed
A 2 x 2 nutrient and water factorial experiment with four replications was installed in an 8-yr-old stand of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) growing on an infertile, excessively drained sandy site in Scotland County, North Carolina. After the fourth year of treatment, estimated stem volume increment, total biomass production, and peak leaf area index (LAI) increased 152%, 99%, and 101%, respectively, with fertilization and 25%,...
