Soil Nutrient Enrichment Induces Trade‐Offs in Bacterial Life‐History Strategies Promoting Plant Productivity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Soil nutrient enrichment induces the trade‐offs between bacterial functional potential and growth‐rate potential. Such trade‐offs favor specific plant‐beneficial species and genes, playing a pivotal role in determining plant productivity. These findings enhance the understanding of the microbial responses in agroecosystems to ongoing global ...

Root Meristem Maintenance Mechanisms are Key to Plant Defense Against Nanoplastics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Small nanoplastics can disrupt cell integrity and inhibit cell division in meristem zone of plant root. The plants can counteract the cell damage by upregulating genes associated with root meristem maintenance and increasing auxin accumulation by PIN2 transport inhibition.

Iodine in abiotic and biotic environments

Біологічні студії, 2018
Iodine, a trace element belonging to halogens, is a natural component of the Earth’s environment. However, its distribution in the environmental compartments is uneven and highly variable.

Biotechnology, environmental forcing, and unintended trophic cascades [PDF]

, 2009
A long ongoing discussion between scientists and policy decision-makers seems to have entered recently into a new phase. The consequences of release of transgenic crops into the environment are being discussed not only by scientists but also by farmers ...

Testing key tenets of pyro‐ecophysiology: Indicators of drought response in relation to shoot flammability

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Relationships between flammability and drought tolerance influence vegetation dynamics during fires. A goal of the emerging subdiscipline of pyro‐ecophysiology is to identify ecophysiological traits that determine live fuel flammability, but empirical studies of these relationships are rare.

Extinction risk of soil biota [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2015
AbstractNo species lives on earth forever. Knowing when and why species go extinct is crucial for a complete understanding of the consequences of anthropogenic activity, and its impact on ecosystem functioning. Even though soil biota play a key role in maintaining the functioning of ecosystems, the vast majority of existing studies focus on aboveground

Fluorinated precursor compounds in sediments as a source of Perfluorinated Alkyl Acids (PFAA) to biota.

Environmental Science and Technology, 2020
The environmental behaviour of perfluorinated alkyl acids (PFAA) and their precursors was investigated in lake Tyrifjorden, downstream a factory producing paper products coated with per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS).

Methyl Substituted Long Chain 1,4‐O‐Bridged‐1,3‐Dienes—Novel Suitable Internal Standards for the GC/MS Analysis of Furan Fatty Acids in Fish Oil

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Furan fatty acids (FuFAs) are excellent antioxidants but rather unexplored because of their high instability and low contributions to the total lipids of food and biota samples. Therefore, the use of internal standards (IS) is essential for the correct determination of FuFAs in food.
