Do Endangered Glacial Relicts Have a Chance for Effective Conservation in the Age of Global Warming? A Case Study: in Eastern Poland.

The abiotic stresses to which plants are exposed, especially in times of climate change, can result in the disruption of natural plant physiological processes. Sudden atmospheric phenomena may increase the risk of failure in protecting rare and extinction-threatened plant species by translocation. This study aimed to determine the effect of extreme ambient temperatures on the condition and physiological response of plantlets used for their reintroduction into the natural habitat.

The Influence of Shallow Peatland Water Quality on Characteristics of the Occurrence of Selected Herb Species in the Peatlands of Eastern Poland.

The aim of the analysis was to compare the physicochemical variables of the quality of shallow groundwater in the peatlands of Eastern Poland in the context of the occurrence of selected herb species with similar habitat requirements: bogbean (), small cranberry (), and purple marshlocks (). The analysis of the quality variables of the shallow groundwater included the following physicochemical variables: reaction (pH), electrolytic conductivity (EC), dissolved organic carbon (DOC), total nitrogen (N), ammonium nitrogen (N-NH), nitrite nitrogen (N-NO), nitrate nitrogen (N-NO), total phosphorus (P), phosphates (P-PO), sulphates (SO), sodium (Na), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), and magnesium (Mg). Internal metabolism was shown to influence the hydro-chemical status of peatland water, free of substantial human impact.

The Search for Suitable Habitats for Endangered Species at Their Historical Sites-Conditions for the Success of and Reintroduction.

Restoring endangered plant species to their historical sites is not always possible due to constantly changing habitat conditions. The aim of this study was to test the effects of reintroduction of two relict willow species in eastern Poland. The experiment consisted of planting 48 individuals of and , obtained by micropropagation, at each of the two selected sites and observing their survival after one year.

Modeling Biometric Traits, Yield and Nutritional and Antioxidant Properties of Seeds of Three Soybean Cultivars Through the Application of Biostimulant Containing Seaweed and Amino Acids.

In recent years, attempts have been made to use preparations that allow obtaining high and good quality yields, while reducing the application of pesticides and mineral fertilizers. These include biostimulants that are safe for the natural environment and contribute to the improvement of yield size and quality, especially after the occurrence of stressors. Their use is advisable in the case of crops sensitive to such biotic stress factors like low temperatures or drought.
