Fungal guild interactions slow decomposition of boreal forest pine litter and humus

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Ericaceous understory shrubs and ericoid mycorrhizal fungal communities are ubiquitous in boreal forests, and their interactions with ectomycorrhizal and saprotrophic fungi may determine organic matter dynamics in forest soils. We followed decomposition of pine needle litter and mor‐layer humus over 3 yr in a factorial shrub removal‐ and pine ...

Oilseed‐based metabolic engineering of astaxanthin and related ketocarotenoids using a plant‐derived pathway: Lab‐to‐field‐to‐application

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Ketocarotenoids, including astaxanthin, are red lipophilic pigments derived from the oxygenation of β‐carotene ionone rings. These carotenoids have exceptional antioxidant capacity and high commercial value as natural pigments, especially for aquaculture feedstocks to confer red flesh colour to salmon and shrimp.

Revisiting the Evolution and Function of NIP2 Paralogues in the Rhynchosporium Spp. Complex

Plant Pathology, EarlyView.
A new long‐read assembly of Rhynchosporium commune reveals ancestral duplication of the Necrosis‐Inducing Protein 2 effector family, which are upregulated during infection but do not cause necrosis on barley. ABSTRACT The fungus Rhynchosporium commune, the causal agent of barley scald disease, contains a paralogous effector gene family called Necrosis ...

Why the present is not the key to past or future: moving beyond restricted relict habitat conditions to improve outcomes in mountain woodland restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Mountain woodland restoration can enhance upland biodiversity and contribute to nature‐based solutions mitigating climate change impacts. However, high‐altitude planting of trees and shrubs requires considerable commitment of time and practical effort and should be evidence‐based to prioritize scarce resources for efficient ...

Stirling System Modeling for Space Nuclear Power Systems [PDF]

A dynamic model of a high-power Stirling convertor has been developed for space nuclear power systems modeling. The model is based on the Component Test Power Convertor (CTPC), a 12.5-kWe free-piston Stirling convertor.
