Three wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes, Sadovo, Katya and Prelom, with different tolerance to drought were comparatively evaluated in terms of leaf respiratory responses to progressing dehydration and consecutive rewatering. Under drought stress, the ...
Naturally occurring photosynthetic systems use elaborate pathways of self-repair to limit the impact of photo-damage. Here, we demonstrate a complex consisting of two recombinant proteins, phospholipids and a carbon nanotube that mimics this process. The c ...
Bacteria forage by moving towards nutrient sources in a process known as chemotaxis. The bacteria follow gradient variations by tumbling or moving in straight lines. Both modes of locomotion are affected by Brownian motion. Bacteria are also capable of int ...
The nature and time evolution of the primary excitations in the pristine conjugated polymer, PCDTBT, are investigated by femtosecond-resolved fluorescence up-conversion spectroscopy. The extensive study includes data from PCDTBT thin film and from PCDTBT i ...
Dinitrogen fixation by cyanobacteria is of particular importance for the nutrient economy of cold biomes, constituting the main pathway for new N supplies to tundra ecosystems. It is prevalent in cyanobacterial colonies on bryophytes and in obligate associ ...
A simple and straightforward method has been developed for the direct carboxylation of aromatic heterocylces such as oxazoles, thiazoles, and oxadiazoles using CO2 as the C1 source. The reactions require no metal catalyst and only Cs2CO3 as the base. A goo ...
Les hôpitaux de jour ont fortement gagné en importance ces dernières années, suivant la hausse des traitements ambulants ou semi-stationnaires des personnes souffrant de psychose. Cependant, ces institutions sont logées, dans la plupart des cas, dans des m ...
A simple stoichiometric model is proposed linking the biomass yield to the enthalpy and Gibbs energy changes in chemo-heterotrophic, mixotrophic, and photo-autotrophic microbial growth. A comparison with calorimetric experiments on the algae Chlorella vulg ...
Desulfitobacterium is a Gram-positive obligate anaerobic bacterium affiliated to the Firmicutes with a highly versatile carbon and energy metabolism. Increasing interest in this genus came with its involvement in the degradation of chlorinated compounds us ...
Naturally occurring photosynthetic systems in plants are supported by elaborate pathways of self-repair that limit the impact of photo-damage. Herein, we demonstrate a complex consisting of two recombinant proteins, phospholipids and a carbon nanotube that ...
