By using quantitative traits additive-dominance genetics model and developmental genetics model, this paper analyzed the developmental behaviors of gene expression for Hibiscus cannabinu plant height and stem diameter at its different growth stages. The results showed that at different growth stages, the unconditional and conditional genetics effects of plant height all showed dominance, while the additive effect was weak. No additive effect was found for stem diameter, but dominance effect was significant at each growth stage. Plant height and stem diameter all had active gene expression from July 28 to August 9, and from September 2 to September 14. There was no additive correlation between plant height and stem diameter, but positive dominance correlation was significant after August 21. The unconditional and conditional genetics effects of plant height and stem diameter were not completely the same. According to practice, conditional genetic analysis could indicate the gene expression more truly in the whole growth period. The ecological and genetics variation patterns of Hibiscus cannabinus plant height and stem diameter at different space-time growth stages implied by our research was of significance in Hibiscus cannabinus genetics and breeding in both theory and practice.

Climate change brings intense hurricanes and storm surges to the US Atlantic coast. These disruptive meteorological events, combined with sea level rise (SLR), inundate coastal areas and adversely impact infrastructure and environmental assets. Thus, storm surge projection and associated risk quantification are needed in coastal adaptation planning and emergency management.

Allometric equations for estimating above and belowground biomass of Colophospermum mopane in Mozambique.

Sci Rep

January 2025

Department of Forest Engineering, Faculty of Agronomy and Forest Engineering, Eduardo Mondlane University, P.O. Box 257, Maputo, Mozambique.

Seasonally dry tropical woodlands are vital for climate change mitigation, yet their full potential in carbon storage remains poorly understood. This is largely due to the lack of species-specific allometric models tailored to these ecosystems. To address this knowledge gap, this study aimed to develop species-specific biomass allometric equations (BAEs) for accurately estimating both above- and below-ground biomass of Colophospermum mopane (J.

Various practical strategies have been employed to mitigate the detrimental effects of water deficit stress on plants such as application of nano-stimulants. Nanosilicon plays a crucial role in alleviating the deleterious impacts of both abiotic and biotic stresses in plants by modulating various phyto-morphological and physiological processes. This study aimed to examine the combined effects of drought stress and nanosilicon application on the morphological traits and essential oil content and compositions of hemp (Cannabis sativa L.

Background And Aims: Understanding interspecific differences in plant growth rates and their internal and external drivers is key to predicting species responses to ongoing environmental changes. Annual growth rates vary among plants based on their ecological preferences, growth forms, ecophysiological adaptations, and evolutionary history. However, the relative importance of these factors remains unclear, particularly in high-mountain ecosystems experiencing rapid changes.
