Of these, 24 studies experimentally removed or excluded ants from experimental plants and 7 compared plants that naturally varied in the presence or absence of ants.
How pure is the protein that comes out of your experimental plants?
The biomass yield of experimental plants was lower than that of control ones.
Evidence for pollen limitation was assessed by comparing fruit per flower and seeds per flower between the control raceme on experimental plants and the supplemental raceme on experimental plants.
Here, the roles of local vs. landscape scale variables on pollination rates of experimental plants are examined in agricultural landscapes.
In 2008, a group of more than 30 masked activists threatened researchers at a nearby field site and destroyed about one-third of their experimental plants.
Because CMV is transmitted by aphids, Fox's experimental plants must be grown in Category 2 containment facilities, the highest level of containment that can apply to plant diseases.
A total of 10 second- and third-instar BPH nymphs were allowed to settle on the experimental plants, and eight replicates were performed for each comparison.
Resource limitation was assessed by testing the effects of habitat on fruit and seed production using only supplemental racemes on experimental plants.
For each supplemental raceme on experimental plants, all of the flowers were hand-pollinated daily for each population, with the exception of 2 3 rainy days.
The second potential reason is that our plants were older and had experienced P deficiency for a longer period than the experimental plants used in other studies.
