Community Assembly Mechanism of Woody Plants at Different Successional Stages in Karst Areas Based on Functional Traits and Phylogeny. [PDF]
This study reveals a shift in woody plant community assembly from competitive exclusion in early succession to habitat filtering in later stages within karst areas. Environmental distance (80.54%) contributed significantly more than geographical distance (9.95%), providing strong quantitative evidence that niche processes, particularly habitat ...

Nectar robbing could directly and indirectly decrease the female fitness of Tirpitzia sinensis, and different morphs have evolved different defense mechanisms in response to nectar robbing pressure. Abstract Nectar robbing can affect plant reproductive success directly by influencing female and male fitness, and indirectly by affecting pollinator ...

Abstract Aim Comprehensive biodiversity protection necessitates the consideration of multiple indexes of diversity, and how the distribution patterns of priority areas may shift under climate change. Galliformes is a globally endangered avian order vulnerable to climate change that provide an important indicator for wildlife conservation effectiveness.

Plant size and environment independently shaped the variations in intraspecific leaf traits of Clausena dunniana in the subtropical karst forest of Maolan. Compared with plant size, the environment played a more critical role in shaping intraspecific leaf trait variations, and potentially also the underlying individual‐level plant resource‐use ...

Background. Excessive plantar pressure leads to increased risk of diabetic foot ulcers. Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) and peripheral arterial disease (PAD) have been considered to be associated with alterations in gait and plantar pressure in diabetic patients. However, few studies have differentiated the effects with each of them. Objective. To

Does sensitive skin represent a skin condition or manifestations of other disorders?
Abstract Sensitive skin or cutaneous sensory syndrome is defined as a skin condition that is hypersensitive to stimuli, presented with itching, irritant, erythema, and dryness. However, is it associated with more than impairment of epidermal functions, psychological stress and topical medication or products?

Our results demonstrated that long non‐coding RNA OSER1‐AS1 performed tumor suppressive function by forming an RNA‐protein complex with ELAVL1 and sequester it from binding and stabilizing its target mRNAs, and it may serve as a potential prognosis markers for patients with NSCLC. Abstract Single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) and long non‐coding RNAs (

喀斯特坡地表层岩溶带发育,入渗强烈,产流机制与非喀斯特坡地有较大差异,为提高喀斯特坡地土壤流失模型预测准确性,以贵州省普定县陈旗小流域6个不同土地利用类型径流小区为观测对象,分析2007-2010年、2015-2019年2期泥沙和地表径流数据,了解产流产沙规律,并利用降雨侵蚀力偏差法计算各小区侵蚀性降雨量。结果表明:(1)植被覆盖率与喀斯特坡地地表产流产沙量呈负相关,高植被覆盖下,暴雨和极端暴雨是造成喀斯特坡地水土流失的主要降雨事件;(2)植被恢复十余年随着覆盖度的提高,年均土壤流失量呈显著下降趋势 ...
