Investigation of Soil Microbial Communities Involved in N Cycling as Affected by the Long-Term Use of the N Stabilizers DMPP and NBPT

Agronomy, 2023
Both, 3,4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP) and N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT) are commonly used as nitrogen (N) stabilizers, and are often used in agriculture to reduce nitrogen (N) loss from soils by inhibiting soil nitrification and by ...

KLK7 overexpression promotes an aggressive phenotype and facilitates peritoneal dissemination in colorectal cancer cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KLK7, a tissue kallikrein‐related peptidase, is elevated in advanced colorectal cancer and associated with shorter survival. High KLK7 levels in ascites correlate with peritoneal metastasis. In mice, KLK7 overexpression increases metastasis. In vitro, KLK7 enhances cancer cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and spheroid formation, driving ...

Temporal stability responses to nitrogen addition in Tibetan alpine grasslands: A community composition perspective

Journal of Integrative Agriculture
Plant community composition typically undergoes progressive changes along environmental gradients. However, most experimental studies have focused on individual communities, so it remains unclear how exogenous nutrient inputs affect the stability of ...

Sun exposure drives Antarctic cryptoendolithic community structure and composition [PDF]

, 2019
The harsh environmental conditions of the ice-free regions of Continental Antarctica are considered one of the closest Martian analogues on Earth. There, rocks play a pivotal role as substratum for life and endolithism represents a primary habitat for ...

A multistate dynamic site occupancy model for spatially aggregated sessile communities

, 2016
Markov community models have been applied to sessile organisms because such models facilitate estimation of transition probabilities by tracking species occupancy at many fixed observation points over multiple periods of time.

Mycobacterial cell division arrest and smooth‐to‐rough envelope transition using CRISPRi‐mediated genetic repression systems

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing and phenotypic exploration in nontuberculous mycobacteria. In this Research Protocol, we describe approaches to control, monitor, and quantitatively assess CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing in M. smegmatis and M. abscessus model organisms.
