The role of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in micronutrient homeostasis and cadmium uptake and transfer in rice under different flooding intensities

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Flooding intensity significantly alters the availability of iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), and cadmium (Cd) in paddy soil. However, the influence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on the uptake and transfer of Cd and micronutrients (Fe and Zn) under Cd stress

Analysis of Two Bradyrhizobium japonicum Strains with Different Symbiotic Matching for Nodulation by Primary Proteomic

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2012
The symbiotic matching for nodulation of Bradyrhizobium japonicum strains is a synergy of multi-proteins and plays a key role in symbiotic nitrogen fixation in nature. Studies on mechanism of symbiotic matching are significant in both theory and practice.

Dairy farming in Uganda. Production Efficiency and Soil Nutrients under Different Farming Systems [PDF]

, 2007
Prior to the 1980s, milk production in Uganda occurred largely in two contrasting production systems. In the wetter parts of the country, especially in the southwest, there were a few large, mostly government-owned commercial dairy farms on which exotic ...

Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 increases metastatic potential and aggressiveness in colorectal cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...

Quantitative Soil Characterization for Biochar–Cd Adsorption: Machine Learning Prediction Models for Cd Transformation and Immobilization

Toxics
Soil pollution with cadmium (Cd) poses serious health and environmental consequences. The study investigated the incubation of several soil samples and conducted quantitative soil characterization to assess the influence of biochar (BC) on Cd adsorption.

Elevated CO₂ does not increase eucalypt forest productivity on a low-phosphorus soil [PDF]

, 2017
Rising atmospheric CO2 stimulates photosynthesis and productivity of forests, offsetting CO2 emissions. Elevated CO2 experiments in temperate planted forests yielded ~23% increases in productivity over the initial years.

Network divergence analysis identifies adaptive gene modules and two orthogonal vulnerability axes in pancreatic cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumors contain diverse cellular states whose behavior is shaped by context‐dependent gene coordination. By comparing gene–gene relationships across biological contexts, we identify adaptive transcriptional modules that reorganize into distinct vulnerability axes.

Issues Related to Incorporating Northern Peatlands into Global Climate Models [PDF]

, 2009
Northern peatlands cover ~3–4 million km2 (~10% of the land north of 45°N) and contain ~200–400 Pg carbon (~10–20% of total global soil carbon), almost entirely as peat (organic soil).
