TL;DR: The hypothesis that the chloroplast itself should be given greater prominence as a sensor, processor and integrator of highly variable environmental signals to allow a more efficient transduction of energy supply into biomass production is put forward.

TL;DR: Subjective assessment of functional capacity should not be used for preoperative risk evaluation, and Clinicians should instead consider a measure such as DASI for cardiac risk assessment.

TL;DR: The yield of 24 commercial varieties and accessions of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) has been determined at different sites in Chile and Bolivia and the contrasting rate of abscission of the reproductive organs under drought stress was clearly consistent with these differences.

TL;DR: The photosynthetic characteristics of two contrasting varieties of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) have been determined and it is suggested that the higher yield of Orfeo compared with Arroz under stress conditions can be explained, in part, by these cellular differences.

TL;DR: The yield of 24 commercial varieties and accessions of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) has been determined at different sites in Chile and Bolivia as mentioned in this paper, and statistical analysis was performed in order to characterize whether a particular variety was more or less stable in yield under different environmental conditions.
