The rhizosphere is the thin area of soil immediately surrounding the root system. It is a densely populated area in which the roots compete with invading root systems of neighboring plant species for space, water, and mineral nutrients as well as form positive and negative relationships with soil-borne microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi and insects.
Galium aparine is known by a variety of common names in English. They include ' 'sweetheart', 'hitchhikers, cleavers, [2] clivers, bedstraw, (small) goosegrass (not to be confused with other plants known as goosegrass), [2] catchweed, [2] stickyweed, sticky bob, [3] stickybud, stickyback, sticky molly, robin-run-the-hedge, sticky willy, [2] [4] sticky willow, stickyjack, stickeljack, grip ...
Plant exudates include saps, gums, latex, and resin. Sometimes nectar is considered an exudate. [12] Plant seeds exudate a variety of molecules into the spermosphere, [13] and roots exudate into the rhizosphere; these exudates include acids, sugars, polysaccharides and ectoenzymes, and collectively account for 40% of root carbon.

Ethnobotany is an interdisciplinary field at the interface of natural and social sciences that studies the relationships between humans and plants. [1] [2] It focuses on traditional knowledge of how plants are used, managed, and perceived in human societies.
Further evidence that arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi exhibit host-specific chemotaxis, that enable hyphal growth toward the roots of a potential host plant: Spores of Glomus mosseae were separated from the roots of a host plant, nonhost plants, and dead host plant by a membrane permeable only to hyphae. In the treatment with the host plant, the ...
According to the New York Times, here's exactly how to play Strands: Find theme words to fill the board. Theme words stay highlighted in blue when found.
Cavitation is when the plant cannot supply its xylem with adequate water so instead of being filled with water the xylem begins to be filled with water vapor. These particles of water vapor come together and form blockages within the xylem of the plant. This prevents the plant from being able to transport water throughout its vascular system. [16]
