Comparing a simple arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal inoculum with commercial products for enhancing plant growth

open access: yesAgraarteadus, 2017
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are obligate symbionts forming mutualistic relationships with most land-plants. In AM symbiosis, the plant supplies the fungal partner with products of photosynthesis and in return recieves various mineral nutrients ...

Why Real-World Problems Go Unresolved and What We Can Do about It: Inferences from a Limited-Resource Model of Successful Intelligence

open access: yesJournal of Intelligence, 2018
In this article I suggest why a symposium is desirable on the topic of why, despite worldwide increases in IQ since the beginning of the 20th century, there are so many unresolved and dramatic problems in the world.

Partial FAK suppression promotes tumor growth, an effect reversed by macrophage p110δ PI3K inactivation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Partial inhibition of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) can paradoxically promote tumor growth, rather than simply producing a weaker antitumor effect than that observed with strong FAK suppression. In breast cancer and melanoma models, targeting p110δ PI3K, particularly in macrophages, counteracted these tumor‐promoting effects, highlighting the importance ...

Effects of intercropping and Rhizobial inoculation on the ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms in rhizospheres of maize and faba bean plants

open access: yes, 2015
To clarify whether intercropping and the Rhizobium leguminosarum inoculation affected the nitrification and subsequent nitrate leaching in soil, quantitative and qualitative analyses of total bacteria (TB), total archaea (TA), ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (

Selection for agronomic traits in intermediate wheatgrass increases responsiveness to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

open access: yesPlants, People, Planet
Societal Impact Statement Agricultural practices have had a negative impact on the physical, chemical, and biological components of soil. Perennial cropping systems that facilitate positive soil microbial interactions could not only rebuild soils but ...

On the efficiency of introduction of microbial strains used for adjusted changes of the compost properties [PDF]

open access: yesУчёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Естественные науки, 2016
The use of suppressive composts, which exhibit fertilizing properties towards plants and inhibiting properties towards phytopathogens, instead of traditional pesticides is of growing practical and scientific importance.

Bridging the gap: a genetically validated avian chorioallantoic membrane platform for investigation of spontaneous circulating tumor cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We established the avian chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay as a scalable in vivo model for studying circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Human gastrointestinal tumors spontaneously released genetically validated CTCs that were detected across multiple platforms, demonstrating that the CAM model provides an accessible tool for investigating early cancer ...

Spatial and temporal dynamics of malaria transmission in rural western Kenya [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
: BACKGROUND: Understanding the impact of reducing Plasmodium falciparum malaria transmission requires estimates of the relationship between health outcomes and exposure to infectious mosquitoes. However, measures of exposure such as mosquito density and
