SWEET transporters of Medicago lupulina in the arbuscular-mycorrhizal system in the presence of medium level of available phosphorus by A. A. Kryukov, A. O. Gorbunova, T. R. Kudriashova, O. B. Ivanchenko, M. F. Shishova, A. P. Yurkov

“…This includes a plant line which is highly responsive to inoculation by AM fungi, an ecologically obligate mycotrophic line MlS-1 from black medick (Medicago lupulina) and the AM fungus Rhizophagus irregularis strain RCAM00320, which has a high efficiency in a number of plant species. Using the selected model system, differences in the expression levels of 11 genes encoding SWEET transporters in the roots of the host plant were evaluated during the development of or in the absence of symbiosis of M. lupulina with R. irregularis at various stages of the host plant development in the presence of medium level of phosphorus available for plant nutrition in the substrate. …”

Effect of delayed sea ice retreat on zooplankton communities in the Pacific Arctic Ocean: a generalized dissimilarity modeling approach by Yuya Hibino, Kohei Matsuno, Kohei Matsuno, Amane Fujiwara, Yoshiyuki Abe, Nanami Hosoda, Motoyo Itoh, Atsushi Yamaguchi, Atsushi Yamaguchi

“…In 2021, the total abundance across the northern Bering Sea to the Chukchi Sea shelf region was lower than that of the community during the sea ice retreat year. However, certain species (Limacina helicina and Pacific copepods) increased locally (northern Bering Sea and Barrow Canyon) because of the increasing volume of Pacific origin water.DiscussionContrary to the reported increase trend on zooplankton, low primary productivity and phenological mismatch for zooplankton may prevail in the Pacific Arctic Ocean, resulting in a low abundance during autumn 2021.…”
