We here use a game-theoretic approach 23 to evaluate the ecological and evolutionary conditions under which individual fixation strategies emerge, and to resolve whether the evolutionary stable ...

Nitrogen is a critical limiting element for plant growth and production. It is a major component of chlorophyll, the most important pigment needed for photosynthesis, as well as amino acids, the key ...

The regulation of the biological fixation of nitrogen in hydric stress conditions varies with the different species of legume plants studied. This was the conclusion of Ruben Ladrera Fernández in his ...

Researchers have announced a simple, low-cost and eco-friendly method of creating nitrogen-doped graphene nanoplatelets (NGnPs), which could be used in dye-sensitized solar cells and fuel cells The ...

Annals of Botany, New Series, Vol. 15, No. 60 (October 1951), pp. 447-459 (14 pages) The paper deals with the fixation of nitrogen by nodulated plants of Myrica gale under experimental conditions, the ...

NORFOLK, Va. — When most people think of lightning, they picture bright flashes in the sky or the rumble of thunder that follows. But lightning does more than put on a show during storms: it helps ...

Two species of Casuarina [C. equisetifolia ssp. incana (Benth.) L.J. and C. cunninghamiana Miq.] differed in growth responses to inoculation with Frankia from five sources. Casuarina equisetifolia ssp ...

Plants are a prominent part of the carbon cycle. They help absorb excess carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and in turn keep the global temperature in check. A recent study published in Nature claims ...

The work, carried out at Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST) in South Korea and published in Scientific Reports, could be a step towards replacing conventional platinum ...

(Nanowerk News) A simple, low-cost and eco-friendly method of creating nitrogen-doped graphene nanoplatelets (NGnPs), which could be used in dye-sensitized solar cells and fuel cells, is published in ...
