Phenotypic and Physiological Characteristics of Pistachio Bushy Top Syndrome–affected Trees by Elizabeth J. Fichtner, Craig Kallsen, Bruce Lampinen, Santosh Bhandari, Jennifer Randall

“…., affected clonally propagated ‘UCB-1’ pistachio rootstocks, causing a suite of symptoms including stunting, shortened internodes, swollen lateral buds, bushy growth, altered bark and root morphology, and stem galls. Symptoms developed within 1 year of planting; however, the long-term influence of PBTS on orchard productivity was unknown because conventionally trained pistachio orchards are typically first harvested after the sixth season. …”

THE INFLUENCE OF GENOTYPE, SOIL TILLAGE AND FERTILISATION ON CARBON SEQUESTRATION IN MAIZE by Elena PETCU, Cătălin LAZĂR, Elena PARTAL, Laura CONŢESCU, Daniela HORHOCEA

“…In contrast to genotypes in which this ratio was lower, maize genotypes that demonstrated a rise in the root:stem ratio under drought stress conditions produced more biomass, suggesting that the roots of these genotypes can grow at water potentials where stem growth is inhibited, which are attributes that also prove their good potential for carbon sequestration under climate change conditions. …”
