Sentence examples for mobility plants from inspiring English sources

Due to their lack of mobility, plants must rely on both physical and chemical defense mechanisms such as producing various toxic metabolites to survive the predatory attacks of other organisms such as insects, bacteria, and fungi, and to adequately compete with other plant species for light and nutritional resources.

Taken together, these changes in the global health landscape imply that there is a need for further integration of human and plant mobility data in plant disease epidemic models.

We reviewed literature that described the effects of changes in pH on mobility and plant uptake of Ra and Cs.

The differential mobility of plant siRNAs and miRNAs (Felippes et al, 2010) could find its origin in the type of endomembranes associated with the two populations of sRNAs.

Generally, a decrease in soil pH by 1 unit will increase mobility and plant uptake by factors of 2 to 7. Thus, Okamoto's dose estimate may be too low.
