Females increase reproductive investment when mated to less sexually attractive males in a serially monogamous fish

Scientific Reports
Reproductive investment decision is an integral part of life-history theory. Differential allocation hypothesis predicts that females should increase investment when mated to high-quality males, conversely, reproductive compensation hypothesis predicts ...

Multi-omics analysis identifies Rch-miR156 as a regulator of salt tolerance in heterografted Rosa plants

Plant Stress
Rosa chinensis is commonly grafted onto salt-tolerant rootstocks to mitigate salinity stress, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying heterografting-induced adaptations in both the scion and rootstock remain unclear.
