Interactive effects of microplastics and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on grassland communities
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Grassland plant communities contribute significantly to global biodiversity but face numerous man‐made pressures which may interfere with their ecological functions. One such pressure receiving increasing scientific, political, and public attention is microplastic pollution.

Resource acquisition and allocation traits in symbiotic rhizobia with implications for life-history outside of legume hosts [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2018 Resources that microbial symbionts obtain from hosts may enhance fitness during free-living stages when resources are comparatively scarce. For rhizobia in legume root nodules, diverting resources from nitrogen fixation to polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) has ...
