ABSTRACT Reactive nitrogen losses from agriculture contribute substantially to greenhouse gas emissions, water pollution and ecosystem degradation. Controlled‐release fertiliser technologies offer potential solutions, yet few comprehensively evaluate performance across multiple nitrogen loss pathways and soil types.

The Accessory Olfactory Bulb in Arvicola scherman: A Neuroanatomical Study in a Subterranean Mammal
The accessory olfactory bulb (AOB) processes chemical signals crucial for species-specific socio-sexual behaviors. There is limited information about the AOB of wild rodents, and this study aims to characterize the neurochemical organization of the AOB ...

Neural mechanisms of social learning in the female mouse [PDF]
Social interactions are often powerful drivers of learning. In female mice, mating creates a long-lasting sensory memory for the pheromones of the stud male that alters neuroendocrine responses to his chemosignals for many weeks.

Impact of ENSO on Nitrous Oxide Emissions in the Eastern Tropical Pacific
Abstract Nitrous oxide (N2O ${\mathrm{N}}_{2}\mathrm{O}$) is a powerful greenhouse gas, with the ocean contributing ∼4.2 Tg N y−1 to global N2O ${\mathrm{N}}_{2}\mathrm{O}$ emissions. The Eastern Tropical Pacific (ETP) is a hotspot of N2O ${\mathrm{N}}_{2}\mathrm{O}$ emissions due to high N2O ${\mathrm{N}}_{2}\mathrm{O}$ production under low‐oxygen ...

Acidification Stimulates N2O Production by Oceanic Nitrifying Bacteria
Abstract Recent studies have shown changes in the production rates of nitrous oxide (N2O) in aerobic seawater in response to ocean acidification (OA). Understanding how N2O production responds to OA is crucial because N2O is a strong greenhouse gas and stratospheric ozone‐depleting substance emitted from the ocean.

A review of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and archaea in Chinese soils [PDF]
Ammonia (NH3) oxidation, the first and rate-limiting step of nitrification, is a key step in the global Nitrogen (N) cycle. Major advances have been made in recent years in our knowledge and understanding of the microbial communities involved ammonia ...

Postnatal characterization of cells in the accessory olfactory bulb of wild type and reeler mice
Olfaction is the most relevant chemosensory sense of the rodents. General odors are primarily detected by the main olfactory system while most pheromonal signals are received by the accessory olfactory system.

Physiological responses of a halophytic shrub to salt stress by Na2SO4 and NaCl: oxidative damage and the role of polyphenols in antioxidant protection [PDF]
Salt stress conditions lead to increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in plant cells. Halophytes have the ability to reduce these toxic ROS by means of a powerful antioxidant system that includes enzymatic and non-enzymatic components.
