influences many aspects of physiology. This lab investigates the impact of exposure to stressors on neural, hormonal, and immunological function, and how these systems interact to influence the whole ...

In vertebrates, an important mechanism for coping with stressors begins with adrenally-derived glucocorticoid hormones: corticosterone in amphibians, reptiles, and birds, or cortisol in fish and ...

on behavior, neural, hormonal and immunological function; 2) how such systems interact to affect the whole organism; and 3) the mechanisms of increased stress resistance and stress resilience produced ...

Lorenzo Rossi, Ph.D., joined the Texas A&M to focus on plant physiology in horticultural crops including grapes.

Aluminum stress is an important factor limiting plant growth in acidic soil, and has significant effects on the growth, development and physiological metabolism of Mentha canadensis. However, the ...
