Sustainable Protection of the Lesser Spotted Eagle in Germany by Purchasing Land and Managing the Reproduction Rate

open access: yesПернатые хищники и их охрана, 2018
The Lesser Spotted Eagle (Clanga [Aquila] pomarina) is the most endangered German eagle species, and is close to extirpation in the country. Various factors are responsible for the decline of the population, and the shrinking of its distribution to a ...

Cats kill millions of vertebrates in Polish farmland annually

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2019
We estimated the predation rate by free ranging domestic cats on vertebrates in rural areas of central Poland. We performed a door-to-door survey on the number of cats owned and type of food provided and combined results of the survey with the previous ...

Pan‐3D Genome Analysis Reveals the Roles of Structural Variation in Chicken Chromatin Architectures, Domestication and Production Traits

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study firstly presents a comprehensive and high‐resolution pan‐3D genome resource in chicken. Our findings reveal the role of structural variations in 3D genome architectures, and how they influence the domestication process and production traits at the 3D genome level.

Decoding Naturalistic Episodic Memory with Artificial Intelligence and Brain‐Machine Interface

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Episodic memory weaves together what, where, and when of experience into a personal narrative. Cutting‐edge AI models may decode this intricate process in real‐life settings, revealing how neural activity encodes naturalistic memories. By merging AI with brain–machine interfaces, researchers are edging closer to mapping and even engineering memory ...

Genetic Control of Tissue Remodeling by a Non‐Coding SNP in ITGA8 Explains Carotenoid‐Based Color Polymorphism in Marine Mollusks

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, the orange‐muscle giant abalone (Haliotis gigantea) is used as a model to identify a non‐coding SNP that disrupts the interaction between ITGA8 pre‐mRNA and the splicing factor ILF2, leading to altered ITGA8 splicing. These splicing changes promote carotenoid accumulation in abalone muscle through the regulation of tissue remodeling ...

Hierarchical Artificial Muscle with Nonlinear Elasticity for Antagonistic and Cyclic Robotics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We construct hierarchical muscles by plying nylon fibers around a heating wire. The hierarchical muscle shows a J‐shaped passive curve, which shows benefit in antagonistic muscle pair and work accumulation mechanism. We also develop a computational, first‐principle model to understand the physics of both active actuation stroke and passive J‐curve ...
