Salt-excluder rootstock improves physio-biochemical responses of grafted grapevine plants subjected to salinity stress.
This study tests the hypothesis that a more salt-excluder rootstock can attenuate salt stress in grapevine plants by enhancing photosynthesis and providing ionic and oxidative protection. Plants of BRS Vitória variety, grafted with the rootstocks IAC 313 (salt-excluder) and SO4, were subjected to s...

Soil macrofauna and water-related functions in patches of regenerating Atlantic Forest in Brazil.
The Atlantic Forest is the most threatened Brazilian biome, with less than 10% of its original surface cover remaining. Thus, several programs of payment for ecosystem services have been developed in this biome focusing on revegetation of degraded areas. Forest regeneration promotes the development ...
