Eesti kontekstis on aga eriti narr võtta ainus sotsiaalministeeriumi haldusala asutus, milles on puudunud juhtimisprobleemid ja on oma ülesannetega laitmatult hakkama saanud, ning lülitada see asutusse, kus puudub täielikult kvaliteedijuhtimine. Ja jälle ravimiohutus halveneb.

Ever wonder where N-fixing prokaryotes dwell globally? Our Plant Ecology UT and Leho Tedersoo combined global sampling reveals N-fixer richness is mainly driven by bioclimatic variables and pH, but is also related to the community composition of other prokaryotes. doi.org/10.3389/fpls.2…
