Peatland vascular plant functional types affect dissolved organic matter chemistry

Alexandre Buttler, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Luca Bragazza, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek, Remy Jean Henry Albrecht, Adrian Pulgarin, Samuel Thomas Gabriel Hamard

Northern peatlands are large repositories of carbon. Peatland vascular plant community composition has been functionally associated to a set of biogeochemical processes such as carbon cycling. Yet, we do not fully understand to what extent vascular plant f ...

Associative interplay of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa QS40) with nitrogen fertilizers improves sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) productivity and fertility of aridisol

Alexandre Buttler, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Luca Bragazza

The environmental and economic impacts of chemical fertilizer have encouraged farmers to integrate them with organic materials, an important nutrient management strategy for sustainable agriculture production. In the present study, we conducted field exper ...

Optimizing drip irrigation for eggplant crops in semi-arid zones using evolving thresholds

Paolo Perona

Field experiments were combined with a numerical model to optimize drip irrigation management based on soil matric potential (SMP) measurements. An experimental crop of eggplant was grown in Burkina Faso from December 2014 to March 2015 and plant response ...

The signature of randomness in riparian plant root distributions

Paolo Perona, Lorenzo Gorla, Stefania Tron

Known as "the hidden half", plant roots are fundamental contributors to the riparian ecosystem functioning. Roots show an extraordinary architectural complexity that recalls their remarkable ability to adapt to environmental heterogeneity, resources availa ...

Effects of hydropeaking waves offsets on growth performances of juvenile Salix species

Alexandre Buttler, Paolo Perona, Pascal Turberg, Constant Signarbieux, Lorenzo Gorla

Hydropower production and other human activities change the natural flow regime of rivers (e.g., hydropeaking effects), in turn, impacting the riparian environment. Here we present an experiment conceived to investigate the response of forced offsets in wa ...
