A Meta‐Analysis Reveals That the Protective Role of Silicon in Grasses Against Fungal Pathogens Depends on Infection Mechanism

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pathogen infection drives plant community structure and constrains global agricultural productivity. Silicon (Si) improves resistance to abiotic and herbivory stress, particularly in grasses, but relatively little attention has addressed Si‐mediated resistance to pathogens, nor has it tested how this varies according to the type of plant and ...

Circadian regulation of reproduction and neoblast cell division in the catenulid flatworm Stenostomum virginianum (Platyhelminthes)

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
The circadian clock and melatonin coordinate homeostasis in many animals, yet their influence on reproduction and neoblast proliferation has only been shown in triclads. This study demonstrates that the early‐branching catenulid Stenostomum virginianum contains photoreceptive refractile bodies, synthesizes endogenous melatonin, and that exogenous ...

Propagation method and species drive survival patterns across reef zones in coral seeding on the Great Barrier Reef

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coral reef restoration increasingly relies on scalable methods, yet outcomes vary across species, propagation techniques, and habitats. Coral seeding, where coral propagules are settled on deployment units before outplanting, provides a flexible approach that accommodates both asexual (e.g. microfragments) and sexual (e.g.

From Infection to Anxiety: A Sequential Model Linking Latent Toxoplasmosis to Psychological Distress via Health and Stress

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Identifying the drivers of chronic stress is crucial for understanding its impact on mental health. Latent toxoplasmosis, a widespread parasitic infection, has been linked to various psychological changes. The Stress‐Coping Hypothesis proposes that at least some of these changes are consequences of chronic stress arising from the infection's ...

Sexual and asexual reproduction in the colonial ascidian Botryllus schlosseri

open access: yes, 2015
The colonial tunicate Botryllus schlosseri is a widespread filter-feeding ascidian that lives in shallow waters and is easily reared in aquaria. Its peculiar blastogenetic cycle, characterized by the presence of three blastogenetic generations (filtering
