  • Marine Microbe Is Source of Rare Nutrient

    Updated: 2009-09-30 01:39:02
    A newly released study of microscopic marine microbes, called phytoplankton, by scientists at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) and the University of South Carolina has solved a ten-year-old mystery about the source of an essential nutrient in the ocean. Roughly a decade ago researchers discovered a rare form of organic phosphorus in marine organic matter. Not only were the scientists surprised to find this form of phosphorus, called phosphonate, but the concentrations in which it was found were very high, throughout the ocean. Researchers hypothesized that phosphonate is produced and consumed in the ocean, but no one understood where it came from and why it was so abundant........

  • Conflict between plant and animal hormones

    Updated: 2009-09-30 01:39:02
    Cis-OPDA (12-oxophytodienoic acid) is a highly reactive plant hormone which simultaneously serves as a precursor molecule of the metabolic "master switch" jasmonic acid. Both signal herbivory in leaves and shoots of plants and activate the plants' defense reaction against caterpillars. Cis-OPDA, when reaching the hemolymph of the caterpillar, has a negative effect on the animal, leading to premature pupation and, apparently, an impaired immune system........
