Cophylogeny and convergence shape evolution in sponge–microbe symbioses Sponges in coral reefs are among the earliest animals on the planet. Research from UNH examines coral reef ecosystems with a novel approach to understanding the complex evolution of sponges and the microbes that live in symbiosis with them.

Crop rotational complexity affects plant-soil nitrogen cycling during water deficit When it comes to crop rotations, complexity is key to boosting levels of nitrogen—a soil nutrient that is critical to crop production. That's according to new research involving NHAES Station scientist and professor of natural resources and the environment Stuart Grandy.

Epigenetic targeting of waldenstrom macroglobulinemia cells with BET inhibitors synergizes with BCL2 or histone deacetylase inhibition Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM), a rare form of lymphoma, does not have any known cure and only one FDA-approved treatment, making it challenging to treat patients. But with the work being done at UNH, that may one day change.

Harnessing plant-microbiome interactions for bioremediation across a freshwater urbanization gradient This research demonstrates how harnessing variation in plants and microbiomes could improve bioremediation (i.e., the process in which biological systems transform organic contaminants into less toxic byproducts). Researchers found that experimental microcosms with duckweeds rapidly transformed the organic contaminant benzotriazole. However, microcosms with duckweeds from rural sites, diverse microbiomes, or algae were able to bioremediate a larger amount of benzotriazole.

Induction of activity synchronization among primed hippocampal neurons out of random dynamics is key for trace memory formation and retrieval A team of UNH researchers found that the neurons involved in so-called Pavlovian conditioning (also known as respondent or classical conditioning) shift their behaviors during this learning procedure, becoming more synchronized when a memory is being formed. They published their study findings in an issue of the Journal of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology.

Molecular interactions and inhibition of the SARS-CoV-2 main protease by a thiadiazolidinone derivative In a first-of-its-kind study, UNH researchers found that using an existing drug compound in a new way, known as drug repurposing, could be successful in blocking the activity of a key enzyme of the coronavirus, or SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19.
