The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation
Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

ABSTRACT This study examines how foreign language teachers’ beliefs about the medium of instruction and translanguaging evolve over time by revisiting three in‐service teachers twelve years after their initial interviews. Using a qualitative longitudinal design, the study traces how translanguaging was initially framed as pedagogically deficient but ...

ABSTRACT Translating local research into English as a lingua franca (ELF) connects local scholarship with global readership, but this process remains constrained by language barriers. Large language models (LLMs) offer advanced accessible solutions, but their responsible integration into academic translation requires a deeper understanding of the ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Studies have shown that organisms may adjust metabolic rates in response to thermal variability, highlighting metabolic plasticity as a key adaptive mechanism. Understanding the extent of metabolic plasticity of an organism is key to predicting its adaptation to climate

Hobbyist preferences for pet freshwater turtles
Abstract The burgeoning pet trade is a primary threat to wild freshwater turtles worldwide. Although the risks from commercial exploitation of turtles have been discussed widely, there is little empirical research on preferences for pet turtles from a hobbyists’ perspective.

In vitro culture, cryopreservation, and field reintroduction of the endangered Mingan thistle
Abstract Current plant conservation efforts are hindered by, for example, poor seed germination, low viability, and insufficient propagation and preservation technologies. To address these problems, we devised an approach to plant conservation that integrates conservation, preservation, and restoration (CPR), which uses advanced in vitro techniques. We

鹿类角柄终生有2次发育,第1次在胚胎期,第2次在青春期,出生后角柄的激活和首次发育对于鹿角再生极为重要,角柄的青春期发育对于鹿类个性及等级序位形成、鹿角大小、争夺配偶、种间竞争和应对天敌等有重要意义。利用红外测距仪,开展麋鹿(Elaphurus davidianus)角柄生长发育的宏观测量,结合青春期骨膜组织取样、血液激素水平和信号通路表达情况检测,对麋鹿角柄发育情况进行研究。结果表明:与成年不同,幼龄雄性麋鹿在第1年秋季开始出生后的首次角柄发育,由毛旋处长出骨质突起,翌年2—3月角柄长至2.5~3.0

Roles of Receptor UNC5B in Vascular Development and Tumor Metastasis [PDF]
血管和神经系统都构成复杂的分支网络,遍布身体的各个区域,并提供信息的双向流动(感觉和运动神经元;动脉和静脉血流)。在体内分布上血管和神经纤维也总是相伴而行到达同一远隔靶位,二者在结构和功能上的相似性,暗示着它们可能受到某些共同信号分子调控。很多神经导向因子都参与了对血管生长发育的调节。UNC5B是首个被证实参与血管发育调控的UNC5受体。但目前对于UNC5B在血管发育中的作用因所使用的动物模型以及UNC5B基因敲除后对表型分析的不同而存在很大的争议,争议的焦点在于UNC5B是促进,还是抑制血管的发育 ...
