Prospects for biocontrol of invasive Rosa rugosa

, 2006
The biota of herbivorous arthropods and pathogenic microorganisms associated with Rosa rugosa in its native and exotic ranges is reviewed. This is done as an initial step towards the identification of potential agents for biological control of this plant

Total genetic contribution assessment across the human genome

Nature Communications, 2021
Quantifying the effects of individual loci on the human phenome is a challenging task. Here, the authors introduce a modelling technique, TGCA, that assesses total genetic contribution per locus and apply this to UK Biobank phenotype domains, revealing ...

Importance of temperature for the performance and biocontrol efficiency of the parasitoid Perilitus brevicollis (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) on Salix

, 2012
With the prospect of warmer temperatures as a consequence of ongoing climate change, it is important to investigate how such increases will affect parasitoids and their top-down suppression of herbivory in agroecosystems.

A Novel Protein Sourced from Chinese Medicine Residue for Golden Pompano Feed: Endothelium Corneum Gigeriae Galli Residue (ECGGR)

Aquaculture Nutrition
Fishmeal is an important protein source in aquafeed. However, due to the limited natural resources, fishmeal is in short supply, resulting in a price surge for fishmeal.

Comparative Assessment of Synthetic and Algal-Derived Astaxanthin Supplementation on Growth Traits, Lipid Homeostasis, and Liver Well-Being in High-Fat Diet-Fed Trachinotus ovatus

Aquaculture Nutrition
While aquaculture often relies on excessive lipid intake to bolster fish growth and cut feed expenses, this practice can also result in hepatic fat accumulation, inflammatory responses, oxidative damage, and immune system malfunctions in aquatic ...

Effects of Lysophospholipid on Growth Performance, Hepatopancreas Health, and Intestinal Microbiome of Litopenaeus vannamei in Low-Fishmeal Diet

Aquaculture Nutrition
A 56-day culture experiment was conducted to assess the effects of lysophospholipid added to a low-fishmeal diet on growth performance, hepatopancreas health, and intestinal microbiome of Litopenaeus vannamei. Three experimental diets were set up in this

The response to cabbage looper infestation in Arabidopsis is altered by lowering levels of Zat18 a Q-type C2H2 zinc finger protein

Journal of Plant Interactions, 2022
Q-type C2H2 zinc finger proteins (ZFPs) play a role in plant stress response. Overexpression of individual ZFPs enhances tolerance to abiotic stresses such as drought or salt.
