Microbiomes and glyphosate biodegradation in edaphic and aquatic environments: recent issues and trends by Zabaloy, María Celina, Allegrini, Marco, Hernandez Guijarro, Keren, Behrends Kraemer, Felipe, Morras, Héctor José María, Erijman, Leonardo

“…Because the biological breakdown of glyphosate is most likely the main elimination process, the biodegra dation of glyphosate has also been the object of abundant experimental work. Importantly, glyphosate biodegradation in aquatic and soil ecosystems is afected not only by the composition and the activity of microbial communities, but also by the physical environment. …”

The work with conservation of genetic diversity at Swedish official agencies : comparing practices with regulations by Ehlin, Johanna

“…In Sweden, the neglect of the need to monitor genet-ic diversity is extra alarming as many of the species found here are on the border of their range and may be extra sensitive to changes in the environment. In this thesis work, a questionnaire study was performed among officials working with nature conservation at Swedish County Administrative Boards (CABs) and Municipalities. …”

Ability of in situ canopy spectroscopy to differentiate genotype by environment interaction in wheat by Arias, Claudia, Montero Bulacio, Enrique, Rigalli, Nicolás, Romagnoli, Martín, Curin, Facundo, Gonzalez, Fernanda Gabriela, Otegui, María Elena, Portapila, Margarita

“…These types of combinations present the disadvantage of lack of sensitivity due to using a single or limited group of bands. In this work on-farm canopy spectral reflectance (CSR) data, composing of ten spectral bands (SBs) plus four spectral vegetation indices (SVIs), is considered in a joint manner to set up a methodology capable to identify genotype by environment interaction (GxE) in wheat. …”
