They also identified a network of genes that cause poplar roots to grow well in low-nitrogen soil making them ideal candidates for biofuel tree plantations on marginal lands.
The article is titled Nitrogen deprivation promotes Populus root growth through global transcriptome reprogramming and activation of hierarchical genetic networks.
By performing genetic network analyses they narrowed the field to a handful of key genes that appeared to control the majority of the 9198 others.
When we tweak this gene the entire network responds and the roots grow 58 percent more than controls'says Busov.

and her then postdoctoral research associate Laura Burkle were delighted to discover meticulous data on a plant-pollinator network recorded by Illinois naturalist Charles Robertson between 1887 and 1916.
Recollecting 26 spring-blooming flowers from Robertson's network Knight Phd professor of biology at Washington University
and Burkle Phd now assistant professor of ecology at Montana State university discovered that the network had weakened.
The network is still there and still functioning despite major perturbations Knight said. The bees still have food plants are still getting pollinator service.
But the service has declined the network's structure is weaker and its response to future perturbations much less certain she said.
The study the first to look at human disruption of plant-pollinator networks through the lens of historical data appears in the Feb 28th online edition of Science.

because it is the plant in the network currently visited by the greatest diversity of bees Knight said.
There have been major changes in Robertson's network over the past 120 years Knight said.
The good news is that the network proved flexible and many of the broken connections were replaced with new ones.
But the bad news is that network has been restructured in ways that will make it less resilient to disturbances in the future.
We can't just kick these plant-pollinator networks forever and expect them to keep functioning Knight said.

#Hydrologists find Mississippi river networks buffering system for nitrates is overwhelmeda new method of measuring the interaction of surface water

The analysis found that 99.6 percent of the water in the network passes through filtering sediment along the banks of creeks streams and rivers.
While further research is needed this would make it unlikely that natural systems can accommodate the high levels of nitrates that have made their way from farmland and other sources into the river network's waterways.
