Multi-Omics Unveils the Dual-Life of the Aquatic Plant Potamogeton nodosus. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Heterophylly, characterized by distinct leaf morphologies, is an adaptive strategy evolved by some aquatic plants to cope with the contrasting environments in which they grow. It is shaped by environmental factors and by hormones, particularly abscisic and gibberellic acids.

Influence of Cellulose Particles on Streptomyces spp. Growth, Morphology, and Metabolite Spectrum. [PDF]
Cellulose particles reduce pellet size and alter morphology in 13 Streptomyces spp., but induce species‐dependent metabolic responses that frequently decrease natural product production. Cellulose‐associated mechanical stress disrupts the relationship between biosynthetic potential and metabolite output, leading to stress‐associated metabolomic shifts ...
