    Experimental and observational studies find contrasting responses of soil nutrients to climate change

    ZY Yuan, F Jiao ... Josep Peñuelas
    Experimental manipulations and environmental gradients, the two common-used approaches, are not at all comparable for predicting the impacts of climate change on nutrient cycling.

    Contrasting responses to aridity by different-sized decomposers cause similar decomposition rates across a precipitation gradient

    Viraj R Torsekar, Nevo Sagi ... Dror Hawlena
    Contrasting climatic dependencies of macrofauna and microorganisms generate similar whole-community decomposition rates across a precipitation gradient, plausibly resolving the longstanding puzzle of why arid-land litter decomposition is decoupled from precipitation.

    H+- and Na+- elicited rapid changes of the microtubule cytoskeleton in the biflagellated green alga Chlamydomonas

    Yi Liu, Mike Visetsouk ... Pinfen Yang
    Acidification and salt, which are two major stresses caused by environmental changes, swiftly and drastically alter the microtubule system in green algae and likely many other organisms.

    Climate-driven deoxygenation elevates fishing vulnerability for the ocean's widest ranging shark

    Marisa Vedor, Nuno Queiroz ... David W Sims
    Habitats of satellite-tracked blue sharks were shifted surfaceward by an oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) at depth thereby increasing their susceptibility to capture by longline fishing focused above the OMZ.

    Biophysical and physiological processes causing oxygen loss from coral reefs

    Cynthia B Silveira, Antoni Luque ... Forest Rohwer
    Coral reef heterotrophic bacteria and fleshy macroalgae cause oxygen loss from reef systems through microbial biomass accumulation and ebullition from algae surfaces.

    Transparent soil microcosms for live-cell imaging and non-destructive stable isotope probing of soil microorganisms

    Kriti Sharma, Márton Palatinszky ... Elizabeth A Shank
    Two optically transparent substrates enable the exploration of the ecophysiology and spatiotemporal organization and activities of bacteria and fungi within heterogeneous soil-like environments.

    Eco-evolutionary dynamics modulate plant responses to global change depending on plant diversity and species identity

    Peter Dietrich, Jens Schumacher ... Christiane Roscher
    Offspring of plants selected at low and high plant diversity differently respond to global change drivers (nitrogen enrichment, drought), as reflected by their biomass production and trait expression, whereby plant-soil interactions play a significant role in these processes.

    Structural basis for molecular assembly of fucoxanthin chlorophyll a/c-binding proteins in a diatom photosystem I supercomplex

    Koji Kato, Yoshiki Nakajima ... Ryo Nagao
    The molecular mechanisms of FCPI assembly and selective binding are revealed through comparison of PSI-FCPI structures in two diatom species.

    Metabolic arsenal of giant viruses: Host hijack or self-use?

    Djamal Brahim Belhaouari, Gabriel Augusto Pires De Souza ... Sarah Aherfi
    Metabolic pathways found to date in giant virus raise the question if these viral enzymes provide some level of autonomy to viruses or if they are used to expand the host metabolism.
