DNA barcoding of the medically important freshwater snail 'Physa acuta' reveals multiple invasion events into Africa [PDF]

, 2018
The medically important freshwater snail Physa acuta is highly invasive and has been reported in several freshwater environments across Africa. To identify species and provide initial insights into the origins of P.

Invasion debt – quantifying future biological invasions [PDF]

Diversity and Distributions, 2015
AbstractAimWe develop a framework for quantifying invasions based on lagged trends in invasions (‘invasion debt’) with the aim of identifying appropriate metrics to quantify delayed responses at different invasion stages – from introduction to when environmental impacts occur.LocationWorld‐wide; detailed case study in South Africa.MethodsWe define four

Biphasic behaviour in malignant invasion [PDF]

, 2006
Invasion is an important facet of malignant growth that enables tumour cells to colonise adjacent regions of normal tissue. Factors known to influence such invasion include the rate at which the tumour cells produce tissue-degrading molecules, or ...

Gelsolin induces colorectal tumor cell invasion via modulation of the urokinase-type plasminogen activator cascade [PDF]

, 2012
Gelsolin is a cytoskeletal protein which participates in actin filament dynamics and promotes cell motility and plasticity. Although initially regarded as a tumor suppressor, gelsolin expression in certain tumors correlates with poor prognosis and ...

Microbial ecology of biological invasions [PDF]

The ISME Journal, 2007
AbstractInvasive microbes, plants and animals are a major threat to the composition and functioning of ecosystems; however, the mechanistic basis of why exotic species can be so abundant and disruptive is not well understood. Most studies have focused on invasive plants and animals, although few have considered the effects of invasive microbes, or ...

Integrated assessment of biological invasions [PDF]

Ecological Applications, 2014
As the main witnesses of the ecological and economic impacts of invasions on ecosystems around the world, ecologists seek to provide the relevant science that informs managers about the potential for invasion of specific organisms in their region(s) of interest. Yet, the assorted literature that could inform such forecasts is rarely integrated to do so,

WRKY61 Negatively Regulates Aluminum Resistance by Inhibiting the Expression of ALMT1 in Arabidopsis thaliana

Plants
Aluminum (Al) toxicity is a major constraint on crop production in acidic soils. A key mechanism for aluminum resistance in many plants involves the ALMT1-mediated exudation of malate from the root system. This process hinges on the precise regulation of

Solid Pseudopapillary Neoplasm of the Pancreas in Children and Adolescents: Expert Recommendations

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas (SPN) is a rare low‐grade malignant exocrine pancreatic tumor, mostly discovered during the second decade of life in females, with a very good prognosis, provided microscopically complete surgical excision is achieved.

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process ...

Phragmites australis and Argyrogramma albostriata Suppress the Invasion of Solidago canadensis in China Under Future Climate Change

Ecology and Evolution
Global warming has significantly accelerated the invasion process and expanded the distribution range of Solidago canadensis. It forms a dominant monoculture in multiple regions via wind‐dispersed seeds and rhizome clonal propagation, posing a serious ...
