Inner workings of the alligator ankle reveal the mechanistic origins of archosaur locomotor diversity. [PDF]
We demonstrate the mechanical basis of ankle mobility in archosaurs and propose how significant shifts in ankle structure relate to locomotor diversity. The sources of three‐dimensional ankle mobility were determined in the American alligator, a species that retains the ancestral archosaur ankle structure.

A proposed standard for quantifying 3-D hindlimb joint poses in living and extinct archosaurs. [PDF]
We propose a standard approach for measuring the relative position and orientation of the major segments of the archosaur pelvis and hindlimb in 3‐D. A set of shared conventions for describing pose and kinematics is essential for fostering comparison among species and for maximizing communication.

Central and eastern Euxine Turkey and SW Georgia, part of the Caucasus biodiversity hotspot, display a high vegetation diversity with 29 different forest and shrubland vegetation types. This vegetation diversity not only indicates the importance of the region in terms of nature conservation but also the reference value in restoration studies and ...

Can medical herbs stimulate regeneration or neuroprotection and treat neuropathic pain in chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy? [PDF]
Chemotherapy‐induced neuropathy (CIPN) has a relevant impact on the quality of life of cancer patients. There are no curative conventional treatments, so further options have to be investigated. We conducted a systematic review in English and Chinese language databases to illuminate the role of medical herbs.

Functional and phylogenetic diversity do not necessarily coincide with taxonomic diversity along vegetation cover gradients. In ecosystems where forest and grassland patches represent alternative stable states, the trends of taxonomic diversity may be similar to those revealed here, but functional diversity patterns may be more system‐specific for some
