Soil protists: a fertile frontier in soil biology research.
Protists include all eukaryotes except plants, fungi and animals. They are an essential, yet often forgotten, component of the soil microbiome. Method developments have now furthered our understanding of the real taxonomic and functional diversity of soil protists. They occupy key roles in microbial foodwebs as consumers of bacteria, fungi and other small eukaryotes. As parasites of plants, ani...
متن کاملMaternal obesity and fetal metabolic programming: a fertile epigenetic soil.
The incidence of obesity and overweight has reached epidemic levels in the United States and developed countries worldwide. Even more alarming is the increasing prevalence of metabolic diseases in younger children and adolescents. Infants born to obese, overweight, and diabetic mothers (even when normal weight) have increased adiposity and are at increased risk of later metabolic disease. In ad...
متن کاملCLIMATE CHANGE: Will Warmer Soil Be as Fertile?
Thick smoke routinely cloaks Southern California hills, highways, and neighborhoods during this region’s autumn wildfire season, with drought contributing to worse fires than usual in the past two years. Wildfire emissions generate larger aerosols than those produced by vehicles—up to 0.4 micrometers (μm) in diameter compared with less than 0.15 μm—according to a new study led by Constantinos S...
متن کاملDifferential susceptibility to chromatid breaks induced by bleomycin in sub-fertile and fertile bovines.
The rate of chromatid breaks was studied in cows with a history of sub-fertility by means of a test based on measurement of the average of breaks induced in lymphocytes of peripheral blood cultures. Fourteen female specimens were divided into two groups: fertile and sub-fertile. Peripheral blood lymphocytes were cultured and prepared for cytogenetic analysis. Two types of culture were establish...
متن کاملFertile Waters for Aging Research
The quest to slow aging has come far, and what used to be the domain of science fiction writers and snake oil salesmen may soon become science fact. Innovative new approaches, such as the use of the very short-lived African killifish (Harel et al.), are bridging the translational gap and bring the promise of healthy longevity to fruition.
