Sheep Horn Development Revealed by Multi‐Tissue and Cross‐Species Transcriptomic Analysis

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Multi‐tissue and cross‐species transcriptomics with allele‐specific expression show sheep horns are a composite organ integrating epidermal and osteogenic programs. Conserved horn gene modules and cis‐regulatory variation fine‐tune expression networks underlying horn development and size (small scurs vs. large spiral horns).

Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.

A global meta‐analysis of non‐lethal mammal browsing control in forests

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Increasing resource demand, desire to sequester atmospheric carbon, and conservation goals are driving a need for forests to be managed more effectively in the face of numerous challenges. One such challenge is damage perpetrated by browsing mammals, which can cause substantial financial and ecological impacts.

Novel Type of Chronic Wasting Disease Detected in Moose (Alces alces), Norway

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2018
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) persists in cervid populations of North America and in 2016 was detected for the first time in Europe in a wild reindeer in Norway.

ALD Derived Li2O Layer Stabilizing Solid Electrolyte Interphase of Silicon/Carbon Anodes for Lithium Storage

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
A durable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) is essential for mitigating the mechanical fracture and interfacial instability of silicon anodes under strong electrochemical‐mechanical coupling. Herein, a uniform Li2O layer was accurately deposited on the Si/C composites to regulate the growth characteristics of SEI.

Spatial and Temporal Patterns of Prion Gene Variation Are Consistent With a Response to Chronic Wasting Disease‐Induced Selection in Wild White‐Tailed Deer

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) poses a threat to cervids and is increasingly prevalent throughout North America. Prion protein gene (PRNP) variation may confer some degree of genetic resilience, creating an impetus to examine changes in allelic variation ...

Requirements for maintenance and live weight gain of moose and wapiti calves during winter

open access: yesRangifer, 1996
Energy requirements of moose (Alces alces) and wapiti (Cervus elaphus) calves were compared from December to February to determine whether metabolic requirements were lower in a boreal-adapted than in a parkland-adapted wild cervid.

Scaling Up Molecular Electron Spin Qubits Around a Core‐Shell Quantum Dot

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Making assemblies of molecular nanomagnet (MNM) qubits is an essential step toward scalable quantum devices. Here, SH‐functionalized {Cr7Ni} antiferromagnetic rings with ability as MNM qubits were successfully grafted to the surface of fluorescent CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QD).

From patterns to predictions: a framework for the spatial epidemiology of wildlife diseases

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Wildlife diseases pose a significant threat to biodiversity conservation, public health, and livestock. Spatial epidemiology provides a robust framework to understand disease dynamics and guide policy and management. However, the rapid proliferation of spatial methods has largely occurred in isolation across disciplines, leaving the field without a ...
