Whole tissue imaging of cellular boundaries at sub‐micron resolutions for deep learning cell segmentation: Applications in the analysis of epithelial bending of ectoderm

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background To understand cellular morphology, biologists have relied on traditional optical microscopy of tissues combined with tissue clearing protocols to image structures deep within tissues. Unfortunately, these protocols often struggle to retain cell boundary markers, especially at high enough resolutions necessary for precise cell ...

Streptozotocin induced hyperglycemia in the axolotl

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Diabetes is a group of diseases characterized by loss of β cell mass and/or function, resulting in hyperglycemia. With no established curative treatment, this has initiated research in β cell regeneration. Current animal models have either limited regenerative capacity (mice) or small size and evolutionary distance from humans ...

Biophysical processes of morphogenesis in lizard lungs

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The lungs of squamate reptiles (lizards and snakes) are highly diverse, exhibiting single chambers, multiple chambers, transitional forms with two to three chambers, along with a suite of other anatomical features, including finger‐like epithelial projections into the body cavity known as diverticulae.

Mosaic activation of the zebrafish hsp70l heat shock promoter: Implications for interpreting transgenes

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The promoters and enhancers of heat shock genes, such as the 1.5‐kb promoter of the zebrafish hsp70l gene, are valuable tools for temporal activation of transgenes. It has been widely purported that heat shock treatments result in ubiquitous expression of hsp70l‐driven transgenes.

Powerful yet challenging: mechanistic niche models for predicting invasive species potential distribution under climate change

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Risk assessments of invasive species present one of the most challenging applications of species distribution models (SDMs) due to the fundamental issues of distributional disequilibrium, niche changes, and truncation. Invasive species often occupy only a fraction of their potential environmental and geographic ranges, as their spatiotemporal dynamics ...

Environmental and geomorphological drivers of frog diversity on islands worldwide

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Island biogeography models primarily rely on island physical features and isolation to explain their biodiversity patterns. While newer models have incorporated functional traits to understand plant distribution, few empirical studies have tried to disentangle geometric constraints from niche‐based processes to predict multiple diversity facets of ...

Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence Techniques for Intelligent Control and Forecasting in Energy Storage‐Based Power Systems

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
A new energy paradigm assisted by AI. ABSTRACT The tremendous penetration of renewable energy sources and the integration of power electronics components increase the complexity of the operation and power system control. The advancements in Artificial Intelligence and machine learning have demonstrated proficiency in processing tasks requiring ...

Comparing Transcriptomic Responses to Chemicals Across Six Species Using the EcoToxChip RNASeq Database

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract The EcoToxChip project includes RNA‐sequencing data from experiments involving model (Japanese quail, fathead minnow, African clawed frog) and ecological (double‐crested cormorant, rainbow trout, northern leopard frog) species at multiple life stages (whole embryo and adult) exposed to eight chemicals of environmental concern known to perturb ...

Variación interpoblacional y ontogenética en la dieta de la rana llorona Physalaemus albonotatus (Anura: Leiuperidae) Interpopulation and ontogenetic variation in the diet of the menwig frog Physalaemus albonotatus (Anura: Leiuperidae)

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2012
Se analizó y comparó el espectro trófico de 2 poblaciones de Physalaemus albonotatus que habitan en ecosistemas diferentes: a) un terreno baldío urbano y b) un área protegida del valle aluvial del río Paraná Medio.
