Undisturbed soil cores (dia. 6 cm) of two mineral and one peaty wetland soils (Typic Humaquept, Aeric Endoaquept and Limnic Haplohemist) from the cool-humid region in southwest Germany were anaerobically incubated for 3 months.
Also, the four soil samples from a depth of 0 30 cm of two rice field irrigated with wastewater in the beginning and middle of the planting season and two samples from one adjacent rice field irrigated with fresh water were collected and their chemical and physical characteristics were determined.
Desiccated green leaf tissue (c. 0.5 cm) of two individuals from the same population were pooled together with an appropriate amount of fresh reference standard and processed as described in Suda et al. [ 15].
Feeding preference was analyzed in dual-choice tests using three leaf discs (Ø 2 cm) of two genotypes (OPR3-RNAi vs. UC82B, or jai1 vs. Castlemart) that were placed alternately in a circle on top of a net covering a 9 cm water-filled petri dish.
Surface samples (0 10 cm) of four contrasting soils i.e., Ferralsol, Luvisol, Vertisol and Solonetz were used in the study.
Data of SOC in surface soils (0 20 cm) of four main soils, Cambisol, Arenosol, Phaeozem, and Chernozem, were collected at 451 locations in Nongan County under maize monoculture in the Song-Nen Plain, Northeast China.
Dependent variable include cl, cd and cm of three airfoils, FLAT PLATE, NACA0012 and NACA23012 at TSR = 0, 2, 5 and 7. Stability is characterized by deviation and fluctuation at 360 degrees of azimuth position.
Samples were taken from the uppermost mineral topsoil horizon (0 to 5 cm) of seven sites under mature deciduous forest showing OC contents between 69 and 164 g kg− 1 and a wide range in mineral characteristics.
Plant height (in cm) of three plants from each plot was measured at maturity from ground level to the tip of the tallest tiller and was averaged for analysis.
The top 1 cm of three sediment cores (2.6 cm diameter) was collected from each tank and combined to form a composite sample of surface sediment.
