Soil carbon loss by soil respiration under different tillage treatments
ACS - Agriculturae conspectus scientificus, 2013 Soil carbon stocks are highly vulnerable to human activities (such as tillage), which can decrease carbon stocks significantly. These activities break down soil's organic matter and some carbon is converted to carbon dioxide (CO2). A part of CO2 (a greenhouse gas that is one of the main contributor to global warming) is lost from the soil by soil ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study revealed how the osteoblastic microenvironment determines the fate of cancer cells disseminated in bone, with a focus on whether they colonize, reside in quiescence, or reactivate from dormancy. Targeting integrin signaling may offer promising strategies for preventing quiescent cancer cells reactivation and bone colonization.
