This study focuses on the Helan Mountain East Foothills region of Ningxia, a typical continental climate wine-growing area, with Cabernet Sauvignon grapes as the subject. It combines trime-thylsilyl derivatization -Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (TMS-GC-MS) technology and the independently ...
Capillary electrophoresis–mass spectrometry (CE-MS) offers considerable advantages for polar compound metabolomics analysis, including simple workflows, fast method development, and suitability for small sample volumes. Blood microsampling (BμS) techniques (such as dried blood spots, quantitative...
Drought represents a major threat to food security. Mechanistic data describing plant responses to drought have been studied extensively and genes conferring drought resistance have been introduced into crop plants. However, plants with enhanced drought resistance usually display lower growth, hi...
The intensity and frequency of precipitation events are predicted to change over the coming decades. For many areas, longer periods without rainfall are expected. We investigated the importance of irrigation frequency under water deficit conditions for growth, physiology and chemistry of wheat (<...
Staphylococcus aureus asymptomatically colonizes the nasal cavity and pharynx of up to 60% of the human population and, as an opportunistic pathogen, can breach its normal habitat, resulting in life-threatening infections. S. aureus infections are of additional concern for populations with impair...
