This may partly be attributable to a higher decay resistance of spruce and more uniform substrate conditions (see also Cornwell et al. 2009; Weedon et al. 2009) when compared to beech.
The OCV shows an initially mild decay rate followed by a higher decay rate in the later stages of the experiment.
Such a characteristic length requires a high decay rate of around d≃0.06 s −1(corresponding to a half-life of 12 sec), to compensate for the fast diffusion, or alternatively, a reduced diffusion coefficient of 0.01 μm/s, to compensate for the slow decay.
Reciprocal litter transplant along the elevation gradient yielded even relatively higher decay of pine litter on beech forest sites after a two-year adaptation period of the microbial community.
Specifically, a relatively higher decay rate of any of the genes expressed in the inflorescence attractors (TFL1, EMF1, UFO, WUS) with respect to the other genes always produces an attractor transition.
Our results suggest that this indeed could be the case, as a relatively higher decay rate of any of the genes expressed in the inflorescence attractors (TFL1, EMF1, UFO,WUS), with respect to the other genes, always produces a phase transition, and this transitions predominantly lead to flower organ attractors (see results).
On the other hand, we also found that in the cases where a phase transition induced by higher decay rates of ABC genes relative to the rates of other genes, the output is more likely to produce both an induced inter-attractor transition and to specify a novel attractor.
However, such a recombination effect of the radical was likely not very effective due to the low steady-state concentrations of the radicals; higher decay rates of MDEA at higher S2O8 2− dosages are still expected [20, 34].
The higher decay rates of FC in MSW can therefore be attributed to the higher organic matter present in the MSW.
Mean LD decay distance for the landraces at the whole genome level was <5 cM, while a higher LD decay distance of 5 10 cM in modern varieties.
