Convergent losses of arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis in carnivorous plants. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Most land plants form the ancient arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis, while carnivory is a younger trait that evolved in several angiosperm orders. The two biotic interactions similarly help plants acquire mineral nutrients, raising the question of whether they can coexist.

An arbuscular mycorrhiza from the 407-million-year-old Windyfield Chert identified through advanced fluorescence and Raman imaging. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Mycorrhizal associations between fungi and plants are a fundamental aspect of terrestrial ecosystems. Mycorrhizas occur in c. 85% of extant plants, yet their geological record remains sparse. Rare fossil evidence from early terrestrial environments offers crucial insights into these ancient symbioses, but visualizing fossil fungi at the ...

Chemical ecology of symbioses in cycads, an ancient plant lineage. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Cycads are an ancient lineage of gymnosperms that maintain a plethora of symbiotic associations from across the tree of life. They have myriad morphological, structural, physiological, chemical, and behavioral adaptations that position them as a unique system to study the evolution, ecology, and mechanism of symbiosis.

Robotics to enable older adults to remain living at home. [PDF]

J Aging Res, 2012
Given the rapidly ageing population, interest is growing in robots to enable older people to remain living at home. We conducted a systematic review and critical evaluation of the scientific literature, from 1990 to the present, on the use of robots in aged care.

Mycorrhizal science outreach: Scope of action and available resources in the face of global change

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 3, Issue 5, Page 506-522, September 2021., 2021
Mycorrhizal associations are acknowledged as key components of global ecosystem functioning. This is especially relevant in the context of global change, since they contribute to the amelioration of adverse soil conditions and play crucial roles in agriculture.

SIMBIOSYS-STC ready for launch: a technical recap [PDF]

International Conference on Space Optics — ICSO 2018, 2019
BepiColombo is the first ambitious, multi-spacecraft mission of ESA/JAXA to Mercury. It will be launched in October 2018 from Kourou, French Guiana, starting a 7-year journey, which will bring its modules to the innermost planet of the solar system. The Stereo Camera (STC) is part of the SIMBIO-SYS instrument, the Italian suite for imaging in visible ...

Lichen bleaching as a response to long‐term experimental warming in the High Arctic

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 2318-2331, July 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Lichens are an important component of Arctic ecosystems. Studies have indicated a decline in the abundance of Arctic lichens during recent decades, which is often attributed to competitive pressure from vascular plants.
