Stable biomass accumulation driven by conservative traits in Brazil’s tropical montane forests

While tropical forests are key CO2 sinks, local drivers of aboveground biomass (AGB) dynamics in diverse systems like the Brazilian Atlantic Forest remain uncertain, constraining ecological references for restoration and long-term carbon sequestration. This study evaluates how bi...

Reference gene selection for gene expression analysis in Coffea arabica L. under ABA and gibberellin treatments

Abstract Background Quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) requires stable reference genes (RGs) to ensure accurate target gene normalization. Plant growth regulators like abscisic acid (ABA) and gibberellins (GA 3 ) play critical roles in plant re...
