Soil nitrous oxide emissions from wheat-based rotations with different types of pulse crops.

Production of agricultural crops with a low greenhouse gas (GHG) footprint is essential to mitigate the adverse effects of climate change. The inclusion of pulse crops in cereal-based rotations can enhance environmental quality by providing biologically fixed N and thereby reducing the amount of synthetic N fertilizer required for the crop rotation. The inclusion of pulse crop has the potential to reduce NO emissions from the agricultural system in both the legume phase and the subsequent wheat phase of the rotation.

Quantitative Analysis of Storage Organelles via Cryo-Electron Tomography and Light Microscopy.

Bacterial cytoplasmic organelles are diverse and serve many varied purposes. Here, we employed to investigate the accumulation of carbon and inorganic phosphate in the storage organelles, polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) and polyphosphate (PP), respectively. Using cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET), these organelles were observed to increase in size and abundance when growth was arrested by chloramphenicol treatment.

Online Dating Site Use to Cope with Minority Stress in Gay and Bisexual Men in Germany: Findings from Two Survey Studies.

Objective: For gay and bisexual men who are confronted with minority stress, online dating sites may provide opportunities for coping. Extant research has largely neglected this, and those pieces that did address it did not sufficiently account for different motivations of use.

Methods: Two survey studies served to explore links between minority stress, online dating use, and well-being (Study 1:  = 97, Study 2:  = 25,884).

[Integration of natural sciences and basic medical subjects in the integrated dentistry program (iMED DENT) at the University of Hamburg].

In October 2019, an integrated dentistry program (iMED DENT) was implemented at the University of Hamburg and was the first of its kind in Germany. This model curriculum builds on didactic concepts that have been applied successfully for many years in curricula for human medicine, including interdisciplinary teaching, early clinical experience, and scientific education. The first year focuses on the healthy situation ("normal function") and aims to integrate the natural sciences (biology, chemistry, physics) and the basic medical subjects (anatomy, biochemistry, physiology, medical terminology) in the context of dental health.
