Ecological thresholds and large carnivores conservation: Implications for the Amur tiger and leopard in China [PDF]
, 2020 The ecological threshold concept describes how changes in one or more factors at thresholds can result in a large shift in the state of an ecosystem. This concept focuses attention on limiting factors that affect the tolerance of systems or organisms and

NFYB Integrates Hormonal Signals into Tissue Allometry by Promoting Protein Biosynthesis
Advanced Science, EarlyView.In the American cockroach, NFYB acts as a spatiotemporin that translates distinct hormonal cues into tissue‐specific allometry. Juvenile hormone activates NFYB in the early fat body, while 20‐hydroxyecdysone induces it in late wing pads. NFYB then promotes protein biosynthesis via core translational machinery, driving differential growth across the ...
