Episodic Canopy Structural Transformations and Biological Invasion in a Hawaiian Forest
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 The remaining native forests on the Hawaiian Islands have been recognized as threatened by changing climate, increasing insect outbreak, new deadly pathogens, and growing populations of canopy structure-altering invasive species.

Humans and platyrrhines share a pattern of articular variance
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Previous work has identified a pattern of articular shape variation in modern human limb joints, in which convex joint surfaces exhibit constrained variance relative to their more variable concave conarticulars. This pattern is notable given that joint morphogenesis is influenced by local biomechanical environments, which vary substantially ...

Evaluating Bergmann's and Allen's rules in the long bones of the eastern gray squirrel
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Ecogeographical rules predict variation in body size and appendage proportions across climatic gradients, yet intraspecific tests using long bones from wild populations remain limited among small mammals. This study tests the hypothesis that eastern gray squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) conform to Bergmann's rule, that is, body size increases ...

Investigating Pompeii Subsoil Using Geomatics and Geophysics Merged Analyses
Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The archaeological site of Pompeii represents an exceptional context for the application of non‐invasive and integrated investigation methods aimed at enhancing the understanding of both exposed and buried remains. This study presents the results of multidisciplinary research conducted in the Palestra Grande site, a large and strategically ...

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.Genetic engineering (GE) overcomes BCA limits, enabling robust, scalable crop protection. “Super Bioagents” (SBs) use optimized SSs to enhance bioactive molecule delivery. Optimizing SSs enhance precise, sustainable effector deployment for stable disease suppression. SBs use microbiome‐informed design for scalable, next‐gen sustainable crop protection.

Coupling Fine-Scale Root and Canopy Structure Using Ground-Based Remote Sensing
Remote Sensing, 2017 Ecosystem physical structure, defined by the quantity and spatial distribution of biomass, influences a range of ecosystem functions. Remote sensing tools permit the non-destructive characterization of canopy and root features, potentially providing ...

From apex to base: Uncovering spatial metabolic adaptation in Antarctic mosses
Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.Antarctic mosses survive extreme cold, desiccation, UV exposure, and oxidative stress. We analyzed three species by separating apical, middle, and basal zones. Each zone showed distinct metabolite patterns and biological roles, revealing spatial metabolic specialization. The results suggest that whole‐plant survival depends on coordinated contributions

Dynamics of biotic resistance to plant invasions
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biotic resistance, the reduction in invasion success caused by native communities, plays an important role in the long‐term dynamics of biological invasions. A large body of empirical research on biotic resistance has accumulated since the last comprehensive review on the subject 20 years ago, enabling us to achieve a refined understanding of ...

Undergrowth Structure and Natural Regeneration in Mixed Conifer-broadleaved Forest of the Southern Sikhote-Alin [PDF]
Журнал Сибирского федерального университета: Серия Биология, 2011 Analysis of structure and disturbance history of a mixed broadleaved-dark conifer-Korean pine forest is performed in Primorye, south part of the Sikhohe-Alin mountain range. Based on results of a dendrochronological and spatial analysis it is showed that
