Whole‐Genome Sequencing Pilot of the Central Asian Genomic Diversity Project Reveals Distinct Histories, Adaptation, and Introgression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
As a pilot phase of the Central Asian Genomic Diversity Project, whole‐genome sequencing of 166 individuals from 20 Central Asian and Afghan Hazara populations reveals fine‐scale substructure shaped by repeated trans‐Eurasian migration and admixture. Integrated analyses uncover post‐admixture adaptation, archaic introgression, and medically relevant ...

A reconnaissance survey of the woody flora and vegetation of the Catapú logging concession, Cheringoma District, Mozambique

Bothalia: African Biodiversity & Conservation, 2007
A checklist of the trees, shrubs and Hanes of Catapú, Cheringoma District, Mozambique, is presented. Floristically the study area falls within the Swahilian/Maputaland Regional Transition Zone. In total, 238 woody species and infraspecific taxa have been

The Plant‐to‐Plant Circular Strategy: Coupling Photodegradation and Phytoremediation With Plant‐Based Nanomaterials for Plastic Degradation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Plant‐based nanomaterials derived from alfalfa serve as dual‐function catalysts, coupling photodegradation and phytoremediation to degrade polyethylene under UV‐A light and in soil. The nanomaterials work synergistically with alfalfa and soil microbes, achieving efficient plastic breakdown without trophic transfer.

Spectral‐Kinetic Synergy in Au‐Network Engineered FeTiO3: A Multi‐Field Coupling Strategy for Lunar In Situ Resource Utilization

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
How can humanity achieve lunar self‐sufficiency? We utilize Au topology networks to modify the abundant lunar ilmenite. This catalyst, under sunlight, can convert waste carbon dioxide into space fuel. This design leverages the moon's natural vacuum for green manufacturing, avoiding the waste of gold and serving as “artificial chloroplasts” to sustain ...

Patterns of Diversity and Endemism of Killifishes (Cyprinodontiformes: Rivulidae) in the Southeastern and Eastern Coastal Basins of the Atlantic Forest, Brazil

Diversity
Rivulid killifishes are among the most threatened components of freshwater biodiversity in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, yet their biogeographic patterns remain poorly documented.

Areas of Endemism: An Improved Optimality Criterion [PDF]

Systematic Biology, 2004
The grid-based method to identify areas of endemism proposed by Szumik et al. is extended. The improvements include the ability to assign scores of endemicity to sets of disjoint areas, and to have each species contribute more to the score of endemicity of an area, or less, according to how well its distribution matches the area.

Livestock Multi‐Omics Integration: A Systematic Framework From Statistical Association to Causal Interpretation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A three‐tier livestock multi‐omics framework resolves four typical analytical pitfalls. Moving from statistical association through machine learning preprocessing to triple‐modal causal inference, it converts omics results into genomic selection and gene editing strategies to achieve One Health, underpinned by multi‐omics data, multimodal sequencing ...

Higher taxa and the identification of areas of endemism

Cladistics, 2015
AbstractQuantitative analyses of areas of endemism have rarely considered higher taxa. This paper discusses aspects related to the use of higher taxa in the analysis of areas of endemism, and computer implementations. An example of the application of the method is provided, with a data set for Nearctic mammals, showing that some of the areas recognized

Sunscreen‐Inspired Nano‐Pesticide for UV‐Shielding and Laccase‐Responsive Delivery of Mancozeb With Enhanced Fungicidal Efficacy and Ecological Safety

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The sunscreen‐inspired nano‐pesticide, MCB@URFSL, provides UV‐shielding, enhanced rainfastness, and laccase‐responsive delivery for improved fungicidal efficacy and high ecological safety. ABSTRACT Fungicides are a crucial tool for protecting crops and ensuring consistent food supply.

Centres of species richness, neoendemism, and paleoendemism for marine fishes occur in different regions of Aotearoa New Zealand [PDF]

Frontiers of Biogeography
Biogeography has traditionally relied on species-based measures of biodiversity, partially reflecting the processes shaping spatial patterns. Incorporating the evolutionary relationships among taxa can provide a greater understanding of how distinct ...
