Evidence that common arbuscular mycorrhizal network alleviates phosphate shortage in interconnected walnut sapling and maize plants

This study shows that a common mycorrhizal network helps walnut and maize plants share phosphate, improving growth and reducing phosphate deficiency under low phosphate conditions.

Structural basis for the mechanism and antagonism of receptor signaling mediated by Interleukin-9 (IL-9)

This study reveals the structural basis of IL-9 signaling and antagonism through crystallography and NMR, showing how IL-9 binds its receptor and how antibodies block its activity.

Micropropagated walnut dependency on phosphate fertilization and arbuscular mycorrhiza for growth, nutrition and quality differ between rootstocks both after acclimatization and post-acclimatization

This study shows that inoculating walnut rootstocks with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi reduces their need for phosphate fertilization and improves growth and nutrition, with effects varying by rootstock type.
