For microorganisms cycling between free-living and host-associated stages, where reproduction occurs in both of these lifestyles, an interesting inquiry is whether adaptation to stress during the free
Short fragments of the 96 single-copy genes were amplified for 92 taxa of a basidiomycetous order Boletales. The amplicon libraries were sequenced by 2 ? 300 bp paired-end sequencing on the MiSeq plat
1. Carnivorous plants obtain nutrients from arthropod prey (carnivory) and their environment. However, little is known about the seasonal diet shifts between carnivory vs environment amo
Previous meta-analyses suggested that carnivorous plants – despite access to N, P, and K from prey – have significantly lower leaf concentrations of these nutrients than non-carnivores. Those studies,
