A Rat Model of the Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Val66Met Polymorphism Shows Attenuated Motivation for Alcohol Self-Administration and Diminished Propensity for Cue-Induced Relapse in Females

open access: yesBiology, 2023
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has been implicated in alcohol use disorder. The Val66Met polymorphism is a common variant of the BDNF gene (rs6265) which reduces activity-dependent BDNF release, and has been suggested as a risk factor for ...

A method to identify bimodal weight–length relations: Possible ontogenetic diet and/or metabolism shift effects in Anguilla anguilla (Actinopterygii: Anguilliformes: Anguillidae) [PDF]

open access: yesActa Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2018
Background. The power function W = a  · Lb is commonly used to describe the weight–length (W–L) relation (WLR) of fish. Smaller/younger specimens may present different WLR from larger/older ones, introducing errors

Extinctions of aculeate pollinators in Britain and the role of large-scale agricultural changes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Pollinators are fundamental to maintaining both biodiversity and agricultural productivity, but habitat destruction, loss of flower resources, and increased use of pesticides are causing declines in their abundance and diversity. Using historical records
