Tissue carbon concentration of 175 Mexican forest species
(2017)"Reliable calculations of carbon stocks in forest ecosystems are crucial for proper implementation of global warming mitigation policies. Accurate estimations depend upon applying the correct factor of carbon (C) concentration for ... -
Tolerance to cadmium of agave lechuguilla (agavaceae) seeds and seedlings from sites contaminated with heavy metals
(Hindawi, 2013)"We investigated if seeds of Agave lechuguilla from contaminated sites with heavy metals were more tolerant to Cd ions than seeds from noncontaminated sites. Seeds from a highly contaminated site (Villa de la Paz) and from ... -
Tolerancia de genotipos de bouteloua gracilis a cadmio
(2005)"Bouteloua gracilis es una gramínea nativa de pastizales semiáridos de México, que evolucionó bajo condiciones extremosas de sequía, herbivoría y fuego, razón por la cual desarrolló diversas adaptaciones morfológicas y ... -
Tolerancia de Opuntia spp. del Altiplano Potosino a condiciones de estrés abiótico: respuestas a nivel ecofisiológico, anatómico y molecular
(2011-11)"En zonas áridas y semiáridas los factores ambientales como son sequía, alta radiación solar y temperaturas extremas, limitan tanto el establecimiento de plántulas como el desarrollo de plantas adultas. Las plantas del ... -
Towards a predictive framework for biocrust mediation of plant performance: a meta-analysis
(Wiley, 2019)"Understanding the importance of biotic interactions in driving the distribution and abundance of species is a central goal of plant ecology. Early vascular plants likely colonized land occupied by biocrusts - photoautotrophic, ... -
Toxicological Screening of Four Bioactive Citroflavonoids: In Vitro, In Vivo, and In Silico Approaches
(MDPI, 2020)"Many studies describe different pharmacological effects of flavonoids on experimental animals and humans. Nevertheless, few ones are confirming the safety of these compounds for therapeutic purposes. This study aimed to ... -
TRUE GRASP: Actors visualize and explore hidden limitations of an apparent win-win land management strategy in a MAB reserve
(Elsevier, 2018)"Win-win solutions might be short-lived. Government permission for smallholder farmers to extract and sell resin from a pine savanna biosphere-reserve in Mexico has settled a long dispute among different stakeholders in ... -
Understanding the role of Pinus cembroides and Quercus potosina in water and nutrient dynamics in a semi-arid forest ecosystem of central-northwest Mexico applying the functional matrix approach.
(2009)"Cada especie presente en los ecosistemas posee características específicas a través de las cuales interactúa con el ambiente, influyendo simultáneamente en varios procesos funcionales del ecosistema. La teoría de la matriz ... -
Up-flow anaerobic sediment trapped (UAST) reactor as a new configuration for the enrichment of anammox bacteria from marine sediments
(2017)"A novel reactor configuration for the enrichment of anammox bacteria from marine sediments was developed. Marine sediments were successfully kept inside the bioreactors during the enrichment process by strategically ... -
Uso del ZnO en la degradación del triclosan mediante irradiación de la luz UV.
(2011)"Los disruptores endocrinos son sustancias exógenas al ser humano, que pueden ser naturales o sinteticas, y que interfieren con la producción de hormonas y la regulación del desarrollo del ser humano. Un ejemplo de estos ... -
Utility of curcumin for the treatment of diabetes mellitus: Evidence from preclinical and clinical studies
(2018)"Turmeric or Curcuma longa is a natural product, whose medicinal properties have been extensively studied and a wide variety of therapeutic effects on several diseases such as neurodegenerative, hepatic and renal damage, ... -
Variabilidad de los flujos de carbono a diferentes escalas de tiempo y sus controles bióticos y ambientales de un pastizal semiárido del Centro de México
(2016-04)"Terrestrial ecosystems control the atmospheric carbon (C) dynamics on Earth, removing~25% of C emissions derived from anthropogenic activities. However, high seasonal and interannual variability generates large uncertainties ... -
Variación estacional del banco de semillas en machones de pastos estoloníferos de un agostadero sobrepastoreado del altiplano mexicano.
(2007)"Conocer y entender el banco o reserva de semillas de un suelo es fundamental para un mejor entendimiento de la dinámica de la vegetación en general. Esto puede ser un elemento importante para la restauración ecológica de ... -
Viviparidad en Echinocactus platyacanthus en el Altiplano Potosino y su posible beneficio para las etapas iniciales de desarrollo.
(2011)"La viviparidad es un mecanismo reproductivo en el cual el embrión germina y emerge de los tejidos de la semilla antes de que sea liberada o dispersada. Este fenómeno es un evento raro en la naturaleza y se encontró en ... -
Water defluoridation with special emphasis on adsorbents-containing metal oxides and/or hydroxides: A review
(Elsevier, 2015)"Fluoride contamination in drinking water has been recognized as one of the major worldwide problems since this represents a serious threat to human health. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends the guideline value ... -
Water regime and osmotic adjustment under warming conditions on wheat in the Yaqui Valley, Mexico
