Saint Louis, les stratégies du « blight »

Saint Louis, Missouri, est une ville moderne. Le système sur lequel elle est établie est obsolète: son plus grand défaut est la grille, trop vaste, trop dense, trop chère à entretenir. La modernité de Saint Louis tient dans sa lutte permanente contre la gr ...

Conditions for the emergence of circumnutations in plant roots

Dario Floreano, Ilya Loshchilov

The plant root system shows remarkably complex behaviors driven by environmental cues and internal dynamics, whose interplay remains largely unknown. A notable example is circumnutation growth movements, which are growth oscillations from side to side of t ...

Ecological response of tree saplings to simulated climate change along an elevational gradient (CLIMARBRE)

María Paula Sanginés De Cárcer

Switzerland will face higher temperature increases than the global average, which will have strong impacts on the mountain ecosystems. How tree species will respond to future climate change scenarios, and what mechanisms will they adopt, remains as a gap o ...

Systems Phytohormone Responses to Mitochondrial Proteotoxic Stress

Johan Auwerx, Xu Wang

Mitochondrial function is controlled by two separate genomes. This feature makes mitochondria prone to proteotoxic stress when a stoichiometric imbalance occurs in the protein complexes that perform oxidative phosphorylation, which consist of both nucleara ...

Experimental response of Salix cuttings to sudden water table changing dynamics

Alexandre Buttler, Paolo Perona, Pascal Turberg, Constant Signarbieux, Lorenzo Gorla

Hydropower production, agriculture and other human activities change the natural flow regime of rivers, in turn impacting the riparian environment. Inadequate flow rules (e.g., minimal or residual flows) reflecting our limited understanding of eco-hydrolog ...

Phytochrome interacting factors 4 and 5 control seedling growth in changing light conditions by directly controlling auxin signaling

Jacques Rougemont, Ioannis Xenarios, Christian Fankhauser

Plant growth is strongly influenced by the presence of neighbors that compete for light resources. In response to vegetational shading shade-intolerant plants such as Arabidopsis display a suite of developmental responses known as the shade-avoidance syndr ...

Process-based, spatially-explicit modelling of riparian forest dynamics in Central Europe

Christian Glenz

During the last decades public awareness of the limitations of traditional engineering practices and the imperative to conserve nature have led to changes in river management; including river restoration measures. The enlargement of the fluvial corridor is ...
