Sentence examples for advantageous for plants from inspiring English sources

Our results suggest that stress can trigger a genome restoration mechanism that could be advantageous for plants to survive environmental changes for which the ancestral genes were better adapted.

I hypothesize that it would be particularly advantageous for plants to learn about the surrounding environment using sound, as acoustic signals propagate rapidly and with minimal energetic or fitness costs.

These changes may be advantageous for plants that differentially express leaf morphology traits during development by maximizing growth and/or survival in low light in the forest understorey as seedlings and, later, in higher light intensities as adults.

Given the abundance of sucrose in living plant tissues, possession of functional GH32 genes that facilitate sucrose utilization would be seemingly advantageous for plant biotrophic fungi.

This is the best of both worlds, as the medicinal plants have natural stress and competition, animals to germinate the seeds, and trees to provide shade and certain nutrients to the soil, like the Sugar Maple, Acer saccharum, which concentrates calcium in its leaves, leaving the soil calcium rich, which is advantageous for a plant like the American Ginseng.
