Rice Shoot ¹³C Abundance at Maximum Tillering Stage Is Well Suited to Distinguish Differences in Water Use Efficiency for Water-Saving Rice Technologies by Yueyue Tao, Yanan Zhang, Klaus Dittert, Lin Guo, Meiju Liu, Shan Lin

“…Our study revealed the following: (1) Significant differences in shoot and leaf δ¹³C were found between paddy and GCRPS plants only at the maximum tillering stage but not at the flowering stage. (2) The shoot δ¹³C at maximum tillering showed a significant positive correlation with irrigation (WUE_i) and total water use efficiency (WUE_t), but there was no such relationship at the flowering stage. (3) Shoot δ¹³C was significantly higher in 2013 than in 2014, most likely related to higher solar radiation from transplanting to maximum tillering in 2013, as there were no significant differences between the years in other climatic factors and soil water content. …”

Energetic and Neuromuscular Demands of Unresisted, Parachute- and Sled-Resisted Sprints in Youth Soccer Players: Differences Between Two Novel Determination Methods by Gabriele Grassadonia, Michele Bruni, Pedro E. Alcaraz, Tomás T. Freitas

“…The aim of this study was to analyze the differences in terms of (1) muscle activation patterns; (2) metabolic power (MP) and energy cost (EC) estimated via two determination methods (i.e., the Global Positioning System [GPS] and electromyography-based [EMG]); and (3) the apparent efficiency (AE) of 30-m linear sprints in seventeen elite U17 male soccer players performed under different conditions (i.e., unloaded sprint [US], parachute sprint [PS], and four incremental sled loads [SS15, SS30, SS45, SS60, corresponding to 15, 30, 45 and 60 kg of additional mass]). …”
