Enriched biodiversity data as a resource and service [PDF]

, 2014
Background: Recent years have seen a surge in projects that produce large volumes of structured, machine-readable biodiversity data. To make these data amenable to processing by generic, open source “data enrichment” workflows, they are increasingly ...

Standards for distribution models in biodiversity assessments

Science Advances, 2019
Biodiversity assessments use a variety of data and models. We propose best-practice standards for studies in these assessments. Demand for models in biodiversity assessments is rising, but which models are adequate for the task?

Hologenomics Reveals Specialized Dietary Adaptations in the Mengla Snail‐Eating Snake

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Dietary adaptation studies from a holobiome perspective are scarce beyond mammals. This research reveals how genomic and microbial interactions drive dietary specialization in the Mengla snail‐eating snake, with evidence of gut symbiont convergence between reptiles and mammals.

Dynamic eIF3‐S6 Phase Separation Switch Instructed by m6A Modification Drives the Molting of Locusts

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This research reveals that reduced m6A modifications during insect molting trigger liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS) of the m6A reader eIF3‐S6, which binds and stabilizes key molting mRNAs, including EcR and Cht10. Disrupting m6A or LLPS causes cuticle remodeling defects and molting failure, highlighting the synergistic control of gene expression ...

Electronic Nanomaterials for Plants: A Review on Current Advances and Future Prospects

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Global food security faces mounting challenges from climate change and rapid population growth. This review highlights the pivotal role of electronic nanomaterials–including metals, metal oxides, and carbon‐based structures–in enhancing plant photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, and stress resilience. Furthermore, it explores how emerging platforms such as

The complete mitochondrial genome of Pseudohelice subquadrata (Dana, 1851) (Crustacea: Decapoda: Varunidae)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
The full-length mitochondrial genome of Pseudohelice subquadrata (Dana, 1851) was analyzed by the primer walking method. Its mitogenome is 16,884 bp in length, comprising 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 22 transfer RNA genes.

Dissecting Extreme Price Fluctuations in Mineral Fertilizers: Regularities and Co‐Movements in Light of Global Food Security

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extreme swings in food prices can put food security at risk. Fertilizer prices are among the main drivers of food prices. This work explores the recurrent behavior of the extreme global fertilizer price fluctuations underlying food price dynamics.
