Cyclic nitramines released into all environmental compartments through anthropogenic activities are toxic and possibly carcinogenic and mutagenic. Soils on military ranges, located throughout the world in various climatic regions and close to human activities, are especially susceptible to cyclic nitramine contamination. The properties of soils on military ranges will directly...
Uganda’s fisheries sub-sector is predominantly supported by traditional small-scale fisheries which plays a vital role in food security and livelihoods of at least 5.3 million Ugandans. Nonetheless, this role has not been adequately characterized and quantified. Here, we report part of the work undertaken between June 2010 and December 2013...
Great Lakes coastal wetland communities are threatened by the impacts of invasive plants on ecosystem function and biodiversity. What allows invasive plants to become dominant in invaded communities can be hard to define and context-dependent. Traits associated with invasion success in wetland systems – rapid vegetative growth, competitive superiority in...

Cytokinins can be conjugated to N- and O-glucosides. While N-glucosylation generally leads to irretrievable loss of activity, O-glucosides are thought to play an important role in cytokinin storage and homeostasis since they can be hydrolyzed to the corresponding aglycones. The first zeatin O-glycosyltransferase genes isolated were ZOG1 and ZOX1 from...
