Minerals are widely assumed to protect organic matter (OM) from degradation in the environment, promoting the persistence of carbon in soil and sediments. In this Review, we describe the mechanisms and processes operating at the mineral–organic interface as they relate to OM transformation dynamics...

Natural clay particles have been hypothesized as catalysts on the early Earth, potentially facilitating the formation of early organic (bio) molecules. Association of clay particles with droplets formed by liquid-liquid phase separation could provide a physical mechanism for compartmentalization of inorganic...
Four classes of enzymes: ADP-Glcpyrophosphorylase (AGPase), starch synthase (SS), starch branching enzyme (BE), and starch debranching enzyme (DBE), have been reported to be associated with starch biosynthesis in storage tissues (Toyosawa et al., 2016). 3.2. The roles of starch branching enz...
The gross anatomy of ctenophores (Figure 2) is unlike that of any other animals [29], and it has been interpreted in many different ways through the centuries. The pharynx is the primary opening to the extensive branched gastrovascular system. Four pairs of endodermal gastrovascular canals ex...
Stephan Wolfram defined four classes that can be used to describe any cellular automaton or other simple computational model based on their observed behaviors. These definitions are qualitative in nature, with some room for intepretation, but are nonetheless considered the most effective classification ...
Climate change scenarios predict increases in temperature and organic matter supply from land to water, which affect trophic transfer of nutrients and contaminants in aquatic food webs. How essential nutrients, such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), and potentially toxic contaminants, such as methy...

Thymus mongolicus (family Lamiaceae) is a Thyme subshrub with strong aroma and remarkable environmental adaptability. Limited genomic information limits the use of this plant. Chromosome-level 605.2 Mb genome of T. mongolicus was generated, with 96.28% a
caulinodans has a single circular chromosome of 5.37 Mb and no auxiliary replicons. The GC content and the coding density are in range with other rhizobia and soil bacteria. A. caulinodans is a motile, nitrogen-fixing, hydrogen-oxidizing, aerobic bacterium with a preference for organic acids as...
