Bombus terrestris and Apis mellifera colonies sharing the same landscape (<50 m from each other) collected pollen with significantly different heavy metal concentrations. B. terrestris‐collected pollen contained 2–7× higher concentrations of arsenic, chromium, cobalt, lead and tin than A. mellifera‐collected pollen.

Many patients with urothelial cancer do not benefit from treatment with pembrolizumab, while at risk of severe side effects. Changes in the levels of circulating tumor DNA early during treatment, measured by a simple and affordable assay that can be easily implemented in the clinic, can be used as a prognostic tool to identify these patients.

K15 & Id3 expression in intact and regenerating adult vibrissae rodent hair follicles [PDF]
The hair follicle can renew itself through an intrinsic stem cell population and has the ability to undergo hair follicle growth cycle; its regenerative activities under normal and experimental conditions together with a feature of easy access make it an

Abstract Tree cavities function as key microclimatic refuges for anurans in the semiarid Caatinga biome of northeastern Brazil, where we document previously unreported interspecific aggregations during the dry season. Observations from fauna rescue operations preceding vegetation clearance revealed eight distinct aggregations within cavities of two ...

Invasive mammals disrupt sea–land nutrient inputs over 169 years on subtropical oceanic islands
Abstract Invasive mammals have severely impacted oceanic islands, reducing or extirpating seabird populations and driving the collapse of nutrient flows with lasting ecosystem effects. We investigated these dynamics on contrasting subtropical oceanic islands in the South Pacific: Rangitāhua, a large island where goats, cats, and rats caused the ...

Ocean Acidification Cannot Mitigate Warming‐Induced Physiological Stress in a Key Foundation Kelp
Ocean warming and acidification are reshaping coastal ecosystems, but their combined effects on foundation species remain unresolved. Using mesocosm experiments, we tested for the individual and combined effects of ocean warming and acidification on the juvenile kelp Laminaria digitata.

Can't outrun recurrence: Long‐term outcomes of treating American black bear sarcoptic mange
Abstract The growing incidence of sarcoptic mange in American black bears (Ursus americanus) has become a concern for wildlife managers in the eastern United States. Inconsistency in the use of single and multi‐dose treatment approaches makes it difficult to evaluate their effects on post‐release outcomes of mange‐rehabilitated bears, which remain ...

Insight into the early steps of root hair formation revealed by the procuste1 cellulose synthase mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
Background: formation of plant root hairs originating from epidermal cells involves selection of a polar initiation site and production of an initial hair bulge which requires local cell wall loosening. In Arabidopsis the polar initiation site is located
