GENOTYPIC AND PHENOTYPIC DIVERSITY DOES NOT AFFECT PRODUCTIVITY AND DROUGHT RESPONSE IN COMPETITIVE STANDS OF TRIFOLIUM REPENS

Genotypic and phenotypic diversity does not affect productivity and drought response in competitive stands of Trifolium repens

Clonal plants can form dense canopies in which plants of different genetic origin are competing for the uptake of essential resources.The competitive relationships among these clones are likely to be affected by extreme environmental conditions, such as prolonged drought spells, which are predicted to occur more frequently due to global climate cha

Type 3 ILCs in Lung Disease

The lungs represent a complex immune setting, balancing external environmental signals with a poised immune response that must protect from infection, mediate tissue repair, and maintain lung function.Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) play a central role in tissue repair and homeostasis, and mediate protective immunity in a variety of mucosal tissues, i
