Prototype Biodiversity Digital Twin: grassland biodiversity dynamics [PDF]
Research Ideas and OutcomesEuropean grassland management has often favoured high production through frequent mowing and heavy fertilisation over biodiversity conservation, which is typically supported by less intensive management.

Population Ecology, EarlyView.Population size and dynamics fundamentally shape speciation by influencing genetic drift, founder events, and adaptive potential. Small populations may speciate rapidly due to stronger drift, whereas large populations harbor more genetic diversity, which can alter divergence trajectories. We highlight theoretical models that incorporate population size

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020 We here report the complete mitochondrial genome of the Hydrophis melanocephalus slender-necked sea snake from Okinawa, Japan. Its length is 17,182 bp, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, and three non-coding regions ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Exposure to common noxious agents (1), including allergens, pollutants, and micro‐nanoplastics, can cause epithelial barrier damage (2) in our body's protective linings. This may trigger an immune response to our microbiome (3). The epithelial barrier theory explains how this process can lead to chronic noncommunicable diseases (4) affecting organs ...

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phototrophs evolved light‐harvesting systems adapted for efficient photon capture in habitats enriched in far‐red radiation. A subset of eukaryotic pigment‐binding proteins can absorb far‐red photons via low‐energy chlorophyll states known as red forms.

An Update of Research Animal Models of Inflammatory Bowel Disease
The Scientific World Journal, 2021 Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a group of chronic disorders that includes two main disease forms, Crohn’s disease, and ulcerative colitis. The understanding of the intestinal inflammation occurring in IBD has been immeasurably advanced by the ...
