MORPHO-PHYSIOLOGICAL EVALUATIONS OF ALEPPO AND BRUTIA PINE SEEDLINGS UNDER TWO DIFFERENT MOISTURE REGIMES (SYRIA, AFFORESTATION, CHLOROPLASTS).
… height growth and in the seasonal trend of total non-structural carbohydrates (reducing sugars and starch). Brutia pine had more reducing sugars and less starch in its shoots than Aleppo pine. The latter had a greater amount of total non-structural carbohydrates and starch when the seedlings were …

The Use of Plant Growth Regulators to Improve the Traffic Tolerance and Repair of Overseeded Bermudagrass
… and morphological responses such as total non-structural carbohydrates and turf density were measured. Previous researchers have shown that increased tissue cytokinins are related to increased tiller density, delay of senescence and enhanced photochemical efficiency. For these reasons, the …

Why is Chasmanthe spp. absent from the archaeological record of the south-western Cape?
… their optimum and harvest them before the stored carbohydrates were used up by the plant. Utility plant indices for varying plant-resource components and mineral content analysis for N, P and total non-structural carbohydrates of the corms were calculated. From the results it appears that the …

Effects of host stored resources on bark beetle-fungal-conifer interactions
… beetle attack and fungal colonization, sapwood non-structural carbohydrates (NSC), lipids, and phosphorus declined in attacked trees relative to un-attacked trees. Resource declines were related to the degree of fungal colonization, suggesting a direct benefit to fungi in both host species. In …

Strategies to Improve Reproductive Efficiency in Cattle with Dietary Intervention
… observed at high crude protein (CP), moderate non-structural carbohydrates (NSC), Low neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and high ether extract (EE). Additionally, the highest predicted pregnancy at first AI rate was when CP was high, moderate NSC, high NDF, and low EE. The second study examines the …

Glucose disposal and insulin sensitivity at rest and during exercise in trained horses adapted to different dietary energy sources and in association with laminitis in ponies
… of lamintis were associated with increased non-structural carbohydrates in spring pasture. These studies demonstrate the importance of glucose regulation for exercise and animal health. When glucose regulation is altered in the case of insulin resistance, performance could be impacted and …

Growth analysis and regrowth potential of three cool season grasses in spring
… in CGR when averaging all weekly samplings. The non-structural carbohydrates in the stubble generally showed an inverse relation with the CGR. There were differences in total LAI among grasses when averaging the weekly cuts. The regrowth in the field after harvesting at different dates was found …

SURVIVAL IN THE FOREST UNDERSTORY: RESILIENCE AND RESISTANCE TO DAMAGE IN NATIVE AND INVASIVE WOODY PLANTS
<p>Non-native woody plants from Europe and East Asia have invaded intact, low-light forest understories in Eastern North America. Compared to co-occurring native species, invasive species exhibit greater productivity and resource use efficiency, but the extent to which plants are subject to …

Glucose and insulin dynamics in late gestation mares and neonatal foals
… supply to feto-placental tissues. Feeds high in non-structural carbohydrates are also linked to diminished insulin sensitivity in horses. Because the equine fetus is highly glucose reliant, maternal glucose and insulin dynamics during pregnancy may have implications for optimal fetal development …

New Zealand seagrass (Zostera muelleri) response to acute sedimentation: Linking non-structural carbohydrate reserves to resilience
… (acute) events in Tauranga Harbour, New Zealand. Non-structural carbohydrates (NSC) are synthesised and stored in seagrass tissues when photosynthetic outputs exceed metabolic demands and, in turn, are mobilised when photosynthesis is unable to meet metabolic demands. Hence, NSC reserves can be …

Partitioning soil respiration in response to drought and fertilization in loblolly pine: laboratory and field approaches
… by the end of an 86 day trial and NSC carbohydrates declined by 60% for soluble, 29% for insoluble, and 43% for total (soluble + insoluble). The decline of RA was highly correlated to with the decline of NSC’s at 0.90, 0.69 and 0.93 for soluble, insoluble and total, respectively. The …

A Comparative Analysis of Sorghum and Maize as Bioenergy Feedstock for the US Midwest: Compositional Attributes and System Nitrogen Dynamics
… maize. The concentrations and contents of total non-structural carbohydrates (TNCs) and total fibers (TFs) varied markedly among hybrids/lines. The concentration of TFs were negatively correlated to TNCs (r=-0.8). A higher content of EtOH convertible carbohydrates (TFs plus TNCs) was associated …
