Future climate scenarios predict changes in the precipitation regimes in the desert regions of northwestern China, following an increasing trend [ 6 , 8 , 9 , 10 ].
Excerpts
Considering the level of 20% SWC, R became the largest source of variability for all the phenotypic traits, except for ABA root , showing a highly significant effect except with regards to ABA leaf .
The variances due to GCA and SCA were noticed to be highly significant, and GCA/SCA ratio was higher than the unity.
Analysis of Variance Inducer effects were highly significant for all observed traits.
For example, CC2 and seed fresh weight after 24 h ( r = −0.1695) and seed width ( r = −0.192) were direct but weakly significant.
In contrast to monospecific triplet combinations ( Figure 2 a,d), both species demonstrate significant but weaker stomatal closure in response to relayed cuing (T2 plants) than to direct interspecific drought cuing (T1 plants), regardless of triplet combination ( Figure 2 b,c,e,f), with significant or marginally significant differences in stomatal closure between IND and T2 plants in all interspecific triplet combinations ( Table 1 ). 3.
The above indicators of Mo17 reached a peak at 10% Mn concentration and demonstrated a decreasing trend with a further increase in Mn deficiency ( Figure 5 ).
Both hybrids showed a decreasing trend of free reducing capacity towards higher nitrate supply levels ( Figure 1 B).
In our study, MAT exhibited an increasing trend from 2001 to 2017.
The allelic variation at the Glu-B1 and Glu-B3 loci had a highly significant effect on gluten quality due to the highly significant impact of Glu-B1 and Glu-B3 alleles ( Table 3 ).
The false-color images of F v / F m showed a trend that was consistent with the F v / F m ratios, indicating inhibition of PSII.
Our results show that the WUE and WSE displayed a decreasing trend with the increase in the irrigation volume.
The plant height, stem diameter, and canopy width of Suaeda salsa showed an increasing trend with the increase in the amount of irrigation, and the W2 plants improved more than the W3 plants.
Thus, it can be inferred that amount of irrigation and planting density significantly affect the biomass of Suaeda salsa , and the interaction between them is highly significant. 2.5.
SCU showed a trend of sustained release at the early stage and middle stages. 2.2.
The values of Pn, Gs and Tr showed a trend of Si > CK > WSi > W.
Here the interaction terms were barely significant and with modest F statistics for all three variables, while the main effect was higher due to the presence of earthworms and only second the species effect.
The total N in the soil and green tea bags decreased with earthworms (significantly only in FB earth ) ( Figure 2 e–g), with barely significant and low F values interaction terms, while with more consistent F statistics related to highly significant main effects of the presence of earthworms.
The germination recovery percentage of dimorphic seeds exhibited an increasing trend as NaCl concentration increased, but there was no discernible difference between dimorphic seeds except in a 400 mM NaCl solution.
In trial 1, herbivory was 41% lower on cyanogenic (i.e., AcLi) than acyanogenic plants (i.e., Acli, acLi, acli), there was no main effect of temperature, and there was a marginally non-significant cyanotype × temperature interaction ( Table 1 ).
Effect of TRP and SER Treatments on SER The interactions among the kind of bud, cultivar and treatment were nearly statistically significant when SER concentrations were analyzed ( P (4,39) = 0.0751) ( Figure 4 (Ca–Cg)).
The effect of treatment on TRP concentration was near statistical significance ( P (2,39) = 0.0697), whereas the effects on the kind of bud and cultivar, were statistically significant ( P < 0.05).
p < 0.05 was considered to indicate a significant difference, and p < 0.01 was considered to indicate a highly significant difference.
Our findings could be the result of harvesting older plants (ten-leaf) than in the mentioned study (six-leaf) when the correlation between P content and root length had the highest values, with a decreasing trend in older plants.
The nutrient concentration in the fallen litter and the amount of nutrients returned showed a decreasing trend, but the decreasing rate was slowed through time.
