Excerpts

Both in terms of DFL and the CGDD requirements highly significant genotype × season (year) interaction was observed ( Supplementary Table 1 ).

In pap1-D/fls1ko plants, NRT1.1 transcript levels were highly induced but showed a decreasing trend due to the high NO 3 – concentration.

As an overall trend in the variation of fitted-line slopes in relation to bioclimatic conditions was apparent, the relationship slope = f (aridity index, AI) was subsequently modeled by linear regression.

The results of variance analysis showed that line and experimental environment accounted for 83.86 and 5.76% of the total variation, respectively, and line-environment interaction accounted for 10.61% of the total variation, all of them reached an extremely significant level ( Supplementary Table 3 ).

The expression of CSRbc S in cucumber leaves showed a decreasing trend ( Figure 9B ), with an increase in the duration of light supplementation, compared with that of the control.

The expression of CsSS ( Figure 9H ) in cucumber leaves showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing with the increase in light supplementation duration.

A clear trend toward more positive values of the X-variate 1 (component 1) due to the infestation of the plants was observed, i.e., from mel-cnt to mel+aph and from mel+endo to mel+endo+aph.

Highly significant mean sum of squares ( Table 2 ) indicated the significant variability among the genotypes, the prominence of variation due to locations, and a differential response of the genotypes to the environments for GY, grain mold resistance.

Therefore, combining cell biology, biochemistry, and molecular biology methods to detect how signaling pathways control dPCD through gene regulatory networks will become an overall trend in future research.

Validation by qRT-PCR showed that the expressions of auxin related genes ARF18 ( Solyc01g096070.3 ), LAX2 ( Solyc01g111310.3 ) and IAA9 ( Solyc04g076850.3 ) were extremely significant different among Pe, Ps and CK at −2 DAA, while which were similar expressed at 0DAA ( Figure 5 ).

However, shoot densities showed a trend of being higher in NB sites in both July and December.

However, while the additional nutrient input resulted in a significantly enhanced biomass production in plants from the NB, there was only a small trend of an increase in biomass of seagrasses growing in fertilized plots in the SB sites.

Moreover, starch concentrations in the rhizomes of SB plants also showed a decreasing trend with fertilization ( Supplementary Table 4 ).

In contrast, DQE, VB, LT, and MDA showed an increasing trend regardless of the type of stress.

By contrast, the LbCas12a-based pHR01 construct exhibits a decreasing trend from the mock control to the highest SCR7 concentration.

The P -value cutoffs for accepting highly significant marker * treatment interaction associated with a trait were set at 1 × 10 −5 for PBW, SN, and GY and at 1 × 10 −4 for kernels number per meter square (KN), kernels number per spikes (KNSp), GPC, and GSC.

In all comparisons we observed plenty of highly significant genes.

In this study, the expression level of NPR1 gene showed a trend of upregulation first and then downregulation ( Figure 9A ).

oxysporum , the expression level of the JAR1 gene showed an overall trend of upregulation first and then downregulation.

For the elite cultivars, a decreasing trend was shown in the root/shoot ratio after the addition of the microbiome (1.33 ± 0.03 compared with 1.15 ± 0.05, mean ± SE), which was not observed for the ancestral genotypes (1.10 ± 0.08 compared with 1.14 ± 0.05).

Concerning the micronutrients ( Figures 3E–H ) and non-essential elements ( Figures 3I,J ), the P deprivation in the NS led to a decreasing trend in all the elements in the roots of cucumber plants, except for Mn, but caused an increase in the concentration of Fe, Mn, and Ba in the aboveground tissues.

When we only considered the ‘Nonpareil’ variety, we observed an increasing trend in accuracy ( R 2 ) similar to the per-row models ( Figure 6 ).

MSI was reduced under Al-stress conditions when compared with control conditions, although highly significant reductions were observed in the case of the sensitive cultivar (22.9%) as compared with the tolerant ones (7.7%).

Similarly, the convex hull displayed a highly significant correlation with calliper length and with the weight of third, fourth, and fifth leaves.

Inversely, a highly significant differential expression is clearly demonstrated for the following tandems: ESL2.02/ESL3.11 in leaves and siliques ; ESL3.02/ESL3.03 in leaves, flowers, and siliques; ESL3.13/ESL3.14 in reproductive organs; and ESL3.07/ESL3.08 in vegetative organs.
