We've tried to take a different view at the issue of nutrient limitations-looking for the shared basis rather than for specific response. This is the result:

A shared basis for nutrient limitation response in cyanobacteria
Cyanobacteria possess diverse regulatory mechanisms to adapt to nutrient limitation, yet the extent to which these responses are shared across different nutrient stresses remains unclear. Understandin...

After focusing on single cell organisms for quite some time, we went back to plants. And we have a paper out "Static and dynamic acclimation mechanisms to extreme light intensities in Hedera helix (Ivy) plants".

Static and dynamic acclimation mechanisms to extreme light intensities in Hedera helix (Ivy) plants
Under natural conditions, plants face the need to acclimate to widely varying light intensities to optimize photosynthetic efficiency and minimize photodamage. Studying the mechanisms underlying thes...
