Water Stress, Osmotic stress, Salt Stress (MPa)

Hi there,
I have a question regarding different units being used in plant physiology for measurement of different stresses
e.g 10 % of MPa PEG
-0.3 MPa of PEG
0.5 mM Salt.
why some people measure water stress in percentage other in MPa or mM. Are they interconvertible ?. if yes what does a 10 % of MPa PEG means ? what its equivalent in MPa ?... more »

Forwarded from Todd Dawson:
Position Description (detailed version):
Tenure-Track Assistant Professor in Plant Physiology
We invite applications for a faculty position in Plant Physiology at the Assistant/Associate Professor level. We seek candidates from all areas of plant physiology, especially individuals whose interests complement existing departmental strengths in plant molecular genetics, ecology, and systems biology. We are searching for individuals who integrate experimental laboratory and field studies with theory, and who consider physiological questions in a cellular, molecular, evolutionary or ecological context. Particular areas of interest include, but are not limited to, metabolism/bioenergetics, biochemical structure and synthesis, plant cellular and structural biology, and plant growth/development. Applicants must be committed to both teaching and to developing an externally funded research program, contributing to both the undergraduate and graduate curricula through teaching and mentorship of student research. Responsibilities include teaching an upper-division plant physiology course with laboratory each year, and other courses in the undergraduate and graduate botany and physiology programs.... more »

Plant Breeding for Drought Tolerance online course
|
| |
PLANT BREEDING FOR DROUGHT TOLERANCE Moisture deficits loom as one of the greatest challenges to future crop production, both in rainfed and irrigated agriculture. Enhancing the genetic tolerance of crops to drought stress, together with improved agronomic practices, is considered an essential strategy for addressing these deficits. To respond to the need for more plant scientists trained in developing drought tolerant cultivars, Colorado State University and University of Nebraska-Lincoln will offer a one-credit online course in Plant Breeding for Drought Tolerance Sept. 26 to Oct. 28, 2011.... more »

about photosynthesis measurement systems
|
| |
Dear Uwe Grüters, I have read your message in the internet about "the comparison of photosynthesis measurement systems (LCPro, LI-6400, CIRAS-2)", I relally wonder What did you decide? Becaouse today I am in the same position. I have to decide to choose one of the instruments of LCPro or LI-6400. We do not have market here for CIRAS-2.... more »

POST-DOCTORAL RESEARCH POSITION: ECOSYSTEM C AND N DYNAMICS AND SYNTHESIS
|
| |
POST-DOCTORAL RESEARCH POSITION: ECOSYSTEM C AND N DYNAMICS AND SYNTHESIS A two-year post-doctoral position is available to work on a multi-investigator, DOE-funded project that examines the effects of elevated carbon dioxide on ecosystem C and N dynamics in the Mojave Desert. The post-doctoral research associate will be responsible for synthesizing and modeling existing data from the 10-year Nevada Desert FACE project in a collaborative project between Washington State University, the University of Wyoming, University of Nevada Las Vegas, and the University of Nevada Reno. A primary goal of the synthesis work is to explore the combined effects of elevated carbon dioxide and precipitation variability on the functioning of arid ecosystems. Data are to be synthesized within a hierarchical Bayesian framework that facilitates simultaneous coupling of diverse data sources and mechanistic models. To apply please email an application letter with professional interests, research experience and goals, CV, reprints, and names, addresses, and E-mail addresses of three references to Dr. R. Dave Evans (rdev...@wsu.edu) and Dr. Kiona Ogle (ko...@uwyo.edu). Review of applications will begin 1 October and will continue until the position is filled.... more »
