Journal ArticleDOI
Arbuscular mycorrhizas influence plant diversity and community structure in a semiarid herbland
TL;DR: There was no change in plant species richness in mycorrhiza-suppressed field plots but diversity increased owing to an increase in evenness, while responsiveness was not a good predictor of species response to suppression of AM in the field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Making monitoring meaningful
TL;DR: The failure to plan, fund and execute sophisticated analyses of monitoring data and then to use the results to improve monitoring methods, can also be attributed to the failure of professional ecologists, conservation practitioners and bureaucrats to work effectively together as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
A mutant in Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. with highly reduced VA mycorrhizal colonization: isolation and preliminary characterisation.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the successful isolation and preliminary characterisation of a mutant of tomato with highly reduced vesicular-arbuscular (VA) mycorrhizal colonization.
Book
Writing Scientific Research Articles: Strategy and Steps
TL;DR: This book discusses how to deal with manuscript rejection, developing discipline-specific English skills, and more about Concordancing, a tool for developing your discipline specific English.
Journal ArticleDOI
Developing Chinese scientists' skills for publishing in English: evaluating collaborating-colleague workshops based on genre analysis
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper describe and evaluate workshops, designed to improve the publication skills of researchers in the agricultural and environmental sciences, which seek explicitly to address two intersecting aspects: developing very specific skills in English as an additional language, often from an initial intermediate proficiency level; and learning to meet the disciplinespecific expectations of English-speaking journal referees and editors.
