AI Article Synopsis

  • A field experiment in 2008 studied how enhanced UV-B radiation and straw application affect soil respiration in soybean fields using an automated CO2 flux system to measure results.
  • Findings showed that enhanced UV-B radiation decreased soil respiration by 30.31%, while straw application increased it by 14.51%, and the combination of both treatments had no significant impact.
  • The study also identified a positive relationship between soil respiration rates and soil temperature across the different treatments, with notable temperature sensitivity coefficients (Q10) indicating that UV-B radiation and straw application influenced soil respiration dynamics.

Article Abstract

Field experiment was carried out in 2008 in order to investigate the effects of enhanced UV-B radiation and straw application on soil respiration in soybean field. LI-8100 automated soil CO2 flux system was used to measure soil respiration under 20% enhanced UV-B radiation, straw application, 20% enhanced UV-B radiation + straw application and control. Environmental factors such as air temperature, soil temperature and moisture were also measured. Results indicated that supplemental UV-B radiation reduced soil respiration rate by 30.31%, straw application increased soil respiration rate by 14.51%, while enhanced UV-B radiation + straw application combined treatment had no significant effect on soil respiration. Enhanced UV-B radiation enhanced the carbon conversion rate of straw. Significant relationship were found between soil respiration rate and soil temperature under the control, enhanced UV-B, straw application, and enhanced UV-B + straw application, the fitting equation determined coefficients R2 were 0.434, 0.563, 0.451 and 0.513. The Q10 (temperature sensitivity coefficients) for soil respiration were 1.55, 1.91, 1.80 and 1.71, respectively. It was reflected that enhanced UV-B radiation, straw application and enhanced UV-B radiation + straw returning increased the Q10 for soil respiration.

Antarctica's harsh environmental conditions, characterized by high levels of ultraviolet (UV) radiation, pose challenges for microorganisms. To survive in these extreme cold regions with heightened UV exposure, microorganisms employ various adaptive strategies, including photoprotective carotenoid synthesis. Carotenoids are garnering attention in the skin health industry because of their UV photoprotection potential, given the direct relationship between UV exposure and skin burns, and cancer.

Background: The carbon sequestration potential and water retention capacity of peatlands are closely linked to the growth dynamics of Sphagnum mosses. However, few studies have focused on the response of Sphagnum moss growth dynamics to UV-B radiation, and existing research has emphasized species differences. In this study, Sphagnum palustre L.

Under changing climatic conditions, plant exposure to high-intensity UV-B can be a potential threat to plant health and all plant-derived human requirements, including food. It's crucial to understand how plants respond to high UV-B radiation so that proper measures can be taken to enhance tolerance towards high UV-B stress. We found that BBX22, a B-box protein-coding gene, is strongly induced within one hour of exposure to high-intensity UV-B.

In the present work, we examined the effects of exogenous abscisic acid (ABA) under ultraviolet B (UV-B) exposure on gibberellin (GA) production, signaling, and antioxidant-related genes in Pall (). Using transcriptomics, acetylated proteomics, and widely targeted metabolomics, the effects of UV-B stress on and the regulatory effects of exogenous ABA on it were revealed from multiple perspectives. The findings revealed that 's antioxidant enzyme genes were differentially expressed by UV-B radiation and were substantially enriched in the glutathione metabolic pathway.

Elevated levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) are caused by ultraviolet B radiation (UV-B) stress. In response, plants strengthen their cell membranes, impeding photosynthesis. Additionally, UV-B stress initiates oxidative stress within the antioxidant defense system and alters secondary metabolism, particularly by increasing the quantity of UV-absorbing compounds such as flavonoids.
