Improved Water Retention From Soil Carbon Accrual Delivers Only Marginal Agrohydrological Benefits Under Most Conditions

Water Resources Research
Despite growing interest in soil carbon sequestration as a climate mitigation strategy, its practical hydrologic benefits in agricultural systems remain uncertain. While soil organic carbon (SOC) is known to increase available water capacity (AWC), it is

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Agronomic Responses of Wheat and Oat Cultivars Under Dual-Purpose and Grain Production Management Strategies

Crops
Dual-purpose (DP) crops diversify farm income, facilitating livestock and grain production. Dual-purpose wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), i.e., grazing or clipping herbage early in the season followed by grain harvest, is commonly used in the Great Plains ...

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Comparative study of conservation of fresh cassava roots (Manihot esculenta Crantz) coated with natural wax and paraffin; Estudio comparativo de conservación de raíces de yuca (Manihot esculenta Crantz) recubiertas con cera natural y parafina

Informador Técnico, 2013
Cassava roots are very susceptible to physiological deterioration; after a few days of harvesting (two or three) they are not acceptable for consumption.

Septin 9 PB domains coordinate centrosome positioning and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...
