Ecolog:
Can anyone suggest research papers that have correctly calculated the water
to biomass and/or crop yield ratio differences under different experimental
regimes?

Subject: [ECOLOG-L] Graduate Research assistant opportunity in University of
Nebraska Lincoln
The Soil Microbial Ecology Group at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln is
seeking a highly motivated M.S. or Ph.D. student to further our
understanding of the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis to the phosphorus
nutrition of maize and soybean grown at high yield. To complement our
current field research, the student will develop greenhouse based trials
to
address specific hypotheses related to plant P transporter activity under
various abiotic stressors of relevance to high yielding agricultural
systems in the face of climate change. Applicants require a BS degree or
MS
degree in biology, biochemistry, soil science, agronomy or related
discipline. Preference will be given to students with a strong
biochemistry/molecular biology background.
Interested parties should send a statement of research interest, resume,
unofficial transcripts 3 references via email to Dr. Rhae Drijber,
Department of Agronomy Horticulture, University of Nebraska-Lincoln,
Lincoln, NE 68583-0915. rdrijb...@unl.edu, 402-472-0770. Selected
applicants will be contacted to submit a formal application.
