Contrasting Food Web Dynamics Across Oceanographic Boundaries in Subarctic Pelagic Ecosystems

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding the structure of pelagic food webs across multiple trophic levels is critical for elucidating species interactions, energy flow, and anthropogenic impacts on production. This study presents a comprehensive analysis of the eastern North Pacific pelagic food webs, focusing on the Gulf of Alaska (GoA) during late winter of 2019.

Setting the pace: new insights into central pattern generator interactions in box jellyfish swimming. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Central Pattern Generators (CPGs) produce rhythmic behaviour across all animal phyla. Cnidarians, which have a radially symmetric nervous system and pacemaker centres in multiples of four, provide an interesting comparison to bilaterian animals for ...

Expert‐Based Prioritization of Control Measures for Salmonid Rickettsial Septicemia in Chilean Salmon Aquaculture

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Piscirickettsiosis (SRS) remains the main infectious disease affecting salmon aquaculture in Chile. This study evaluated expert perceptions of the effectiveness of SRS control measures and the level of agreement among industry professionals.

Integrating complexity in population modelling: From matrix to dynamic models

Ecological Informatics
Matrix models are widely used in population ecology studies and are valuable for analysing population dynamics, although they are limited in the use of time-varying parameters. This limitation can be overcome by dynamic models.

Microscopy insights into reef coral fluorescent proteins: Diversity, light energy transfer and biological function

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Fluorescent proteins (FPs) and chromoproteins (CPs) of reef‐building corals, which generate much of their vivid colouration, occupy a distinctive position at the interface of natural photonics, symbiosis biology and fluorescence microscopy.

Genome‐scale insights into metabolic streamlining and photosynthetic energy balance in the extremophile green alga Picocystis salinarum (Picocystophyceae, Chlorophyta)

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Picocystis salinarum is an early‐diverging chlorophyte and the sole described member of the Picocystophyceae, frequently dominating hypersaline and alkaline lakes despite extreme physicochemical constraints. To elucidate the genomic foundations of its ecological success, we generated a fully annotated, chromosome‐scale nuclear genome assembly ...

The Form of Agency

Noûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Philosophers often think agency is essentially connected with rationality, intention, or control. However, Minimalists argue that agency is just the power to cause a change; acids and boulders are agents too. Many philosophers treat Minimalism as a wild outlier, assuming its falsity without argument.

Gap‐Free Cannabis sativa Assemblies Reveal Post‐Polyploid Genome Remodelling and Refine the Evolution of Cannabinoid Synthase Genes

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the therapeutic importance of cannabinoids, the scarcity of gap‐free Cannabis genomes has limited the dissection of the genetic and genomic basis of cannabinoid biosynthesis and genome evolution. Here, we generated two haplotype‐phased, gap‐free, gold‐standard assemblies and used them to investigate post‐polyploid genome remodelling ...

Long-term distribution patterns and northward shift signals of the box jellyfish Carybdea brevipedalia in Korean waters

Frontiers in Marine Science
Carybdea brevipedalia is the only cubozoan species reported from Korean waters and is a major cause of jellyfish stings during summer along the southern coast and around Jeju Island.
