Low levels of ribosomal RNA partly account for the very high photosynthetic phosphorus-use efficiency of Proteaceae species [PDF]
Proteaceae species in south-western Australia occur on phosphorus- (P) impoverished soils. Their leaves contain very low P levels, but have relatively high rates of photosynthesis.

Community Assembly of Fungi and Bacteria along Soil-Plant Continuum Differs in a Zoige Wetland
Distinct plant associated microbiomes live in rhizosphere soil, roots, and leaves. However, the differences in community assembly of fungi and bacteria along soil-plant continuum are less documented in ecosystems.

Influence of fine process particles enriched with metals and metalloids on Lactuca sativa L. leaf fatty acid composition following air and/or soil-plant field exposure [PDF]
We investigate the effect of both foliar and root uptake of a mixture of metal(loid)s on the fatty acid composition of plant leaves. Our objectives are to determine whether both contamination pathways have a similar effect and whether they interact ...
