COMMERCIAL PRODUCTION OF ORNAMENTAL TROPICAL FOLIAGE PLANTS: MICROPROPAGATION


Understanding plant community responses to combinations of biotic and abiotic factors in different phases of the plant growth cycle.

Understanding plant community responses to combinations of biotic and abiotic factors is critical for predicting ecosystem response to environmental change.However, studies of plant community regulation have seldom considered how HARMONY responses to such factors vary with the different phases of the plant growth cycle.To address this deficit we st

Appetitively motivated tasks in the IntelliCage reveal a higher motivational cost of spatial learning in male than female mice

The IntelliCage (IC) permits the assessment of the behavior and learning abilities of mice in a social home cage context.To overcome water deprivation as an aversive driver of learning, we developed protocols in which spatial learning is motivated appetitively by the preference of mice for sweetened over plain water.While plain water is available a
