TL;DR: Niche partitioning around nitrogen sources may structure the community when organisms directly compete for limited phosphate, and niche complementarity around nitrogen Sources may increase community diversity and productivity in phosphate-limited phototrophic communities.

TL;DR: This approach for the first time characterized the ontogeny of protein changes during normal lung development in microdissected alveolar tissue containing only 4,000 cells, and revealed seven defined modules of coordinated transcription factor-signaling molecule expression patterns, suggesting a complex network of temporal regulatory control directsnormal lung development with epigenetic regulation fine-tuning pre-natal developmental processes.

TL;DR: A system that minimizes sample handling by using online immobilized trypsin digestion and solid phase extraction to create a simple, sensitive, robust, and reproducible platform for the analysis of nanogram-size proteomic samples is presented.

TL;DR: Flexible, substrate‐specific enzymatic response of the fungal cultivar allows leaf‐cutter ants to derive energy from a wide range of substrates, which likely contributes to their ability to be dominant generalist herbivores.

TL;DR: The results reveal that numerous free amino acids and sugars are depleted throughout the process of biomass degradation, indicating that easily accessible nutrients from plant material are readily consumed by microbes in these ecosystems.
