Spatial relationships between dominant ants and the cocoa mirid Sahlbergella singularis in traditional cocoa-based agroforestry systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Manipulating ant communities to control pests of cocoa has proven to be a promising strategy, especially in Asia. However, concerning African cocoa mirids, the main pests of cocoa in Africa, basic knowledge on mirid-ant relationships is still incomplete.

Functional and Structural Evidence of Neurofluid Circuit Aberrations in Huntington Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Disrupted neurofluid regulation may contribute to neurodegeneration in Huntington disease (HD). Because neurofluid pathways influence waste clearance, inflammation, and the distribution of central nervous system (CNS)–delivered therapeutics, understanding their dysfunction is increasingly important as targeted treatments emerge.

Astrocytic expression of the chaperone DNAJB6 results in non-cell autonomous protection in Huntington’s disease

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2019
Several neurodegenerative diseases like Huntington's, a polyglutamine (PolyQ) disease, are initiated by protein aggregation in neurons. Furthermore, these diseases are also associated with a multitude of responses in non-neuronal cells in the brain, in ...

Kinematic Modeling at the Ant Scale: Propagation of Model Parameter Uncertainties

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Quadrupeds and hexapods are known by their ability to adapt their locomotive patterns to their functions in the environment. Computational modeling of animal movement can help to better understand the emergence of locomotive patterns and their body ...

Diversity and mosaic structure of ant (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) community in traditional cocoa agroforestry systems in southern Cameroon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In cocoa agrosforestry systems, ants are the major arthropod component of the canopy. Since dominant ant species are usually active predators of insects. Ant community may contribute to protect cocoa against insect pests, and especially from cocoa mirids.

Structure–Function Decoupling of the Sensorimotor and Default Mode Networks in Black Americans With MS

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Multiple sclerosis (MS) exhibits racially disparate rates of disease progression. Black people with MS (B‐PwMS) experience a more severe disease course than non‐Hispanic White people with MS (NHW‐PwMS). Here we investigated structural and functional connectivity as well as structure–function decoupling in the ...

Elliptic Curves over Totally Real Cubic Fields are Modular [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We prove that all elliptic curves defined over totally real cubic fields are modular. This builds on previous work of Freitas, Le Hung and Siksek, who proved modularity of elliptic curves over real quadratic fields, as well as recent breakthroughs due to

Paramagnetic Rim Lesions Are Associated With Trans‐Synaptic Degeneration of the Visual Pathway in Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Retrograde trans‐synaptic degeneration (rTSD) from posterior visual pathway lesions in multiple sclerosis (MS) is characterized by hemi‐macular ganglion cell‐inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) thinning and contralateral visual field loss.

Variation in Foraging Activity Areas of Worker Ants in Newly Established Red Imported Fire Ant Colonies Across Different Habitats

open access: yesSociobiology
Red imported fire ant (Solenopsis invicta Buren) is a severe and highly destructive invasive species. It has invaded mainland China since 2004. Understanding the foraging behavior patterns of workers in different habitats and conditions can help to ...

Toward and Analytical and Methodological Understanding of Actor Network Theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Actor-network theory (ANT) is well developed within social studies of science and technology. The last two decades have seen an increasing awareness and interest in ANT within the social sciences and it has increasingly been invoked to theorise the role ...
