CHANGES IN GROWTH PARAMETERS, C:N:P STOICHIOMETRY AND NON-STRUCTURAL CARBOHYDRATE CONTENTS OF ZANTHOXYLUM ARMATUM SEEDLING IN RESPONSE TO FIVE SOIL TYPES

Zanthoxylum armatum (Z.armatum) is an economic crop widely planted for both spice and medicinal purposes in Southwest China.Soil is a key environmental condition that affects seedling growth and development, and screening suitable soil types is of great significance for the large-scale cultivation of crops.This study designed growth experiments of

Abstract Referendums allow people to participate in political decision-making.However, they also come with the challenge of presenting complex issues to the electorate in a concise and comprehensible way.In order to simplify the decision-making process, referendum questions are often tailored to yes/no response options.In comparison, the UK Europea

The Golgi cells are the main inhibitory interneurons of the cerebellar granular layer.Although recent works have highlighted the complexity of their dendritic organization and synaptic inputs, the mechanisms through which these neurons integrate complex input patterns remained unknown.Here we have used 8 detailed morphological reconstructions to de

Incidental fisheries bycatch is recognised as a major threat to albatross populations worldwide.However, fishery discards and offal produced in large quantities might benefit some scavenging seabirds.Here, we demonstrate an Door Locking integrated approach to better understand the ecological ramifications of fine-scale overlap between seabirds and
