Is there evidence of sexual reproduction (meiosis) in Acanthamoeba
Evolution of independently breeding species into males and females (gametes) has remained a puzzle. Given the significant advantages of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction as a long-term species survival strategy; here, we pose the question whether there is some form of meiosis in Acanthamoeba species, which represents our ancient lineage. The recently available Acanthamoeba genome revealed several genes implicated in meiosis in sexual eukaryotes such as Spo11, Mre11, Rad50, Rad51, Rad52, Mnd1, Dmc1, Msh, and Mlh, suggesting that Acanthamoeba is capable of some form of meiosis, inferring the presence of sexual reproduction in Acanthamoeba, and that meiosis evolved early in eukaryotic evolution
Soil and litter exchange of reactive trace gases
The soil and litter play an important role in the exchange of trace gases between terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere
Modelling the air–surface exchange of ammonia from the field to global scale
The Working Group addressed the current understanding and uncertainties in the processes controlling ammonia (NH3) bi-directional exchange, and in the application of numerical models to describe these processes
