Root-Fungal Associations of Colobanthus Quitensis and Deschampsia Antarctica in the Maritime and Subantarctic (2008)

R. Upson, K.K. Newsham, D.J. Read

The two native Antarctic vascular plant species, Colobanthus quitensis and Deschampsia antarctica, were sampled from 15 points along a 1480 km latitudinal transect from South Georgia (54°S, 36°W)...

Measuring and predicting the dynamics of linear monodisperse entangled polymers in rapid flow through an abrupt contraction. A small angle neutron scattering study (2006)

Graham, R. S., Bent, J., Hutchings, L. R., Richards, R. W., Groves, D. J., Embery, J., ...

Small-angle neutron scattering measurements on a series of monodisperse linear entangled polystyrene melts in nonlinear flow through an abrupt 4:1 contraction have been made. Clear signatures of melt...

Graham, R. S., Bent, J., Hutchings, L. R., Richards, R. W., Groves, D. J., Embery, J., ...

Small-angle neutron scattering measurements on a series of monodisperse linear entangled polystyrene melts in nonlinear flow through an abrupt 4:1 contraction have been made. Clear signatures of melt...

Small angle neutron scattering observation of chain retraction after a large step deformation (2005)

Blanchard, A., Graham, R.S., Heinrich, M., Richter, D., Pyckhout-Hintzen, W., Richter, D., ...

The process of retraction in entangled linear chains after a fast nonlinear stretch was detected from time-resolved but quenched small angle neutron scattering (SANS) experiments on long,...

Plant communities affect arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal diversity and community composition in grassland microcosms (2004)

Johnson, D., Vandenkoornhuyse, P.J., Leake, J.R., Gilbert, L., Booth, R.E., Grime, J.P., ...

The diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi was investigated in an unfertilized limestone grassland soil supporting different synthesized vascular plant assemblages that had developed for 3...

Neutron-mapping polymer flow: Scattering, flow visualization, and molecular theory (2003)

Bent, J., Hutchings, L. R., Richards, R. W., Gough, T., Spares, R., Coates, P. D., ...

Flows of complex fluids need to be understood at both macroscopic and molecular scales, because it is the macroscopic response that controls the fluid behavior, but the molecular scale that...

Epiparasitic plants specialized on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (2002)

Bidartondo, M.I., Redecker, D., Hijri, I., Wiemken, A., Bruns, T.D., Dominguez, L., ...

Over 400 non-photosynthetic species from 10 families of vascular plants obtain their carbon from fungi and are thus defined as myco-heterotrophs. Many of these plants are epiparasitic on green plants...

In situ 13CO2 pulse-labelling of upland grassland demonstrates a rapid pathway of carbon flux from arbuscular mycorrhizal mycelia to the soil (2002)

Johnson, D., Leake, J.R., Ostle, N., Ineson, P., Read, D.J.

• The flux of pulse-derived 13C from upland pasture plants to the external mycelium of their arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbionts was traced and quantified over a 7-d post-labelling period. •...

‘‘Lozenge’’ contour plots in scattering from polymer networks (1997)

Read, D.J., McLeish, T.C.B.

We present a consistent explanation for the appearance of “lozenge” shapes in contour plots of the two dimensional scattering intensity from stretched polymer networks. By explicitly averaging...

The Structure and Function of the Ericoid Mycorrhizal Root (1996)

READ, D.J.

The uniformity of structure of the anatomically simple ericoid mycorrhizal hair root across many plant families, including Epacridaceae, that are diagnostic of heathland, and the characteristic...

Dieback Disease of Pines with Special Reference to Corsican Pine Pinus nigra var. Calabrica Schn: III. Mycological Factors (1968)

READ, D. J.

The fungus Brunchorstia pinea Karst. v. H. is found to be consistently associated with early stages of dieback disease in a number of pine species. Inoculation of buds with conidial suspensions of...

Dieback Disease of Pines with Special Reference to Corsican Pine Pinus nigra var. Calabrica Schn.: II. The Relationship between Frost Resistance, Microclimate, and.Disease (1967)

READ, D. J.

The winter frost hardiness level of Corsican Pine buds in northern England is found to range from −16° C to −20 C (+3° F to −4° F). Buds in the lower parts of the tree are more...

Dieback Disease of Pines with Special Reference to Corsican Pine, Pinus Nigra var. Calabrica schn.: I. The Nature of the Disease Symptoms and their Development in Relation to the Crown and to Aspect (1966)

READ, D. J.

In north Yorkshire the earliest symptoms of disease appear at the base of the bud in January. A small area of tissue in the region of the lowest leaf primordium becomes necrotic, the protoplasts...

Multiple causes of asphyxia in infants at high risk for sudden infant death.

Jeffery, H E, Rahilly, P, Read, D J

A wide range of clinical findings was present in 58 near-miss sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) infants and 6 surviving twins of SIDS siblings. Specific investigations included: studies of...
