Even harvesting methods can affect the rate of acidification of the soil solution

We first assessed if the 23 genes up-regulated in elf18 treated EFR:XA21:GFP could be validated by qPCR analysis. Eleven out of 23 DRGs were up-regulated in EFR:XA21:GFP rice leaves after elf18 treatment. Transcripts of the remaining 12 candidate genes were detectable by qPCR amplification but were not up-regulated in elf18 treated EFR:XA21:GFP leaves . We …

Field measurements need to be conducted to test results obtained with model systems

Experiments were performed under oxic and anoxic conditions to constrain the influence of oxygen on Se reduction. Different concentrations of organic carbon sources and selenate were examined since they are key limiting factors for microbial Se reduction. Temporally resolved data on selenate and selenite concentrations at the reactor outflow and spatially resolved data on solid …
