Microbial carbon recycling: an underestimated process controlling soil carbon dynamics – Part 2: A C₃-C₄ vegetation change field labelling experiment [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2015
The mean residence times (MRT) of different compound classes of soil organic matter (SOM) do not match their inherent recalcitrance to decomposition. One reason for this is the stabilization within the soil matrix, but recycling, i.e.

Influence of Climate on Stable Nitrogen Isotopic Values of Contemporary Greek Samples: Implications for Isotopic Studies of Human Remains from Neolithic to Late Bronze Age Greece

Geosciences, 2019
In this paper, we study δ15N enrichment as an indicator not only of marine protein diet, but also of climate change. The slope of the variation of δ15N with precipitation was calculated equal to 0.38/100 mm of precipitation for Greek plants, 0 ...

An evaluation of migration fidelity of Ruby-throated Hummingbirds inferred from stable isotope methods [PDF]

PeerJ
Knowledge of spatial connectivity between breeding and non-breeding locations of migratory birds and their breeding site fidelity are important for avian conservation.

Isotopic Traceability (¹³C and ¹⁸O) of Greek Olive Oil

Molecules, 2020
In recent years, isotopic analysis has been proven a valuable tool for the determination of the origin of various materials. In this article, we studied the 18O and 13C isotopic values of 210 olive oil samples that were originated from different regions ...

Nitrogen-Induced Changes in Soil Environmental Factors Are More Important Than Nitrification and Denitrification Gene Abundance in Regulating N2O Emissions in Subtropical Forest Soils

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Subtropical regions are currently experiencing a dramatic increase in nitrogen (N) deposition; however, the contributions of nitrification and denitrification processes to soil N2O emissions and the underlying mechanisms under increasing N deposition ...

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Content, composition, and transfer of polyunsaturated fatty acids in an Arctic lake food web

Ecosphere, 2022
Freshwater fish production depends on the production and use of polyunsaturated fatty acids (n‐3 and n‐6 PUFA) from lower trophic levels. Here, we aimed to identify the main trophic pathways that support PUFA content in different fish species (mean 39.7 ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Computational Mass Transfer Study of Special High-efficiency Packing Used in the Separation of Carbon-13

Journal of Isotopes, 2020
The separation of stable isotope carbon-13（13C） is very difficult because the separation coefficient is only 1.007. So it is necessary that nearly three thousand theoretical stages should be required to obtain a high abundance product of 99 atom% 13C. In

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...
