No adverse effect of genetically modified antifungal wheat on decomposition dynamics and the soil fauna community--a field study. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
The cultivation of genetically modified (GM) plants has raised several environmental concerns. One of these concerns regards non-target soil fauna organisms, which play an important role in the decomposition of organic matter and hence are largely ...

Disorder‐Broadened Topological Hall Phase and Anomalous Hall Scaling in FeGe

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
By systematically introducing defects into FeGe via ion‐beam modification, we demonstrate that disorder broadens the temperature regime over which the topological Hall effect ‐ a signature of skyrmions or other chiral textures — appears, while also increasing its magnitude.

Soil fauna accelerated litter C and N release by improving litter quality across an elevational gradient

Ecological Processes, 2023
Background Soil fauna is an important driver of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) release from decomposing litter in forest ecosystems. However, its role in C and N cycling concerning climate and litter traits remains less known.

Excretion of nitrogenous waste by soil fauna and assessment of the contribution to soil nitrogen pools

Soil Organisms, 2022
The provisioning of nitrogen for plant growth is a key function of soils. Soil fauna primarily affect nitrogen mineralization through their interactions with microorganisms, but the excretion of feces and nitrogenous waste products can also supply ...

Quantifying the Contribution of Sediment Load to Soil Detachment Rate by Sediment-Laden Rill Flow

, 2017
Sediment load changes with downslope distance during rill erosion process, and thus quantifying the potential contribution of sediment load on soil detachment rate is essential to accurately model the rill erosion process.

ATP‐Mediated Bidirectional Communication Between Natural and Artificial Cells for Controlled Bioreactions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Establishment of bidirectional communication behavior between natural and artificial cells. The first type of communication from natural dendritic cells to artificial polymeric cells was achieved via ATP release after cell lysis. The released ATP was taken up via gated UV‐controlled permeability increase of the polymeric membrane for performing ...
