España y el golpe de estado contra De Gaulle by Karima Aït Yahia

“…Franco's government, just like part of the press, took a hesitant attitude and did not express itself clearly. Our analysis also makes clear that in terms of foreign policy there was great diversity of opinion within the regime, since the more liberal newspapers wholeheartedly supported de Gaulle, as the legitimate president of the French Republic.…”

Physiological and molecular mechanisms of exogenous salicylic acid in enhancing salt tolerance in tobacco seedlings by regulating antioxidant defence system and gene expression by Xiliang Song, Jian Chen, Can Xu, Xianjie Cai, Wenjing Song, Aixia Chang, Yu Zhang, Chenggang Luo

“…The plant hormone salicylic acid (SA) has notable potential in mitigating salt toxicity, yet its mechanism in enhancing the salinity tolerance of tobacco plants is not well explored.MethodsThis study aimed to assess the potential benefits of exogenous SA application (1.0 mM) on tobacco seedlings subjected to saline soil conditions.ResultsThe foliar spray of SA partially mitigated these salt-induced effects, as evidenced by a reduction of malondialdehyde content, and improvements of leaf K+/Na+ ratios, pigment biosynthesis, and electron transport efficiency under NaCl stress. …”

Analysis of Land Use Migration Change in Ganjiang River Basin by HE Hao, LIU Weilin, LI Xiang, ZHANG Jingrong, YANG Qing, TU Xuke, LIU Jianwu, LIU Lina

“…Land use/cover change is an important representation of interactions between humans and the natural environment,and its change characteristics profoundly influence regional ecological security and sustainable socio-economic development.Based on the land use data of the Ganjiang River Basin from 1980 to 2018,the spatio-temporal changes in land use in this basin are analyzed by ArcGIS spatial analysis method.The results show that forest land and cultivated land are the main land types in Ganjiang River Basin.The areas of the two land types decrease,with constantly increasing construction land area.The comprehensive dynamic index of land use in the basin is increasing,which indicates accelerating land use changes.The types of land use conversion are mainly the transfer from cultivated land and forest land to construction land,the mutual transfer of forest land and grassland,and the transfer from forest land to cultivated land,with some cultivated land transferred to waters.The centers of gravity of grassland,waters,and construction land change significantly,and are moving northwest,southwest,and southeast respectively with phased moving speeds.The research results can provide scientific references for ecological environment protection,and planning and management of water and land resources in the Ganjiang River Basin.…”
