From Understory to Canopy: In situ Behavior of Neotropical Forest Katydids in Response to Bat Echolocation Calls

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2018
Predator-prey interactions take place in complex environments, and research on the sensory ecology of predator-detection relies on understanding when, where, and how prey experience and respond to predator cues.

Enviromics and Abiotic Enviromics: Enhancing Stress Biology and Plant Resilience Breeding

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Environmental stressors are captured through high‐throughput envirotyping and integrated into an enviromic framework with genomic, transcriptomic, phenomic, and environmental data. AI/ML models enable prediction and guide marker‐assisted selection, genomic selection, genome editing, and gene pyramiding toward improved abiotic stress tolerance, yield ...

Niche‐Mediated Neural Priming Enables Robust and Scalable Generation of Human Choroid Plexus Organoids

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Compared to E8, mTeSR1 culture downregulated WNT and TGF‑β signaling, and upregulated neural differentiation pathways, enhancing neural priming. Under skin organoid induction conditions, mTeSR1‑cultured hESCs generated organoids with significantly higher neuroepithelial differentiation.

Strahler Ordering Analyses on Branching Coral Canopies: Stylophora pistillata as a Case Study

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
The three-dimensional structural complexities generated by living sessile organisms, such as trees and branching corals, embrace distinct communities of dwelling organisms, many of which are adapted to specific niches within the structure.

Risk management externalities in agrifood supply chains

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Firms may under‐ or over‐invest in risk management from the social planner's perspective, resulting in a negative externality on other economic agents in the supply chain. The externality of risk management is particularly relevant for agrifood supply chains, which frequently experience disruptions and play a primary role in preventing major ...
