Introgressed Variation in TaMYB7‐A1 Drives Graded Dormancy and Climate‐Adaptive Pre‐Harvest Sprouting Resistance in Wheat

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
TaMYB7‐A1 directly activates TaABI5 to enhance ABA signaling and regulate ABA‐GA homeostasis, enforcing seed dormancy. Its superior allele, derived from wild einkorn introgression, harbors a MITE insertion that elevates expression and two amino acid substitutions that enhance transcriptional activity, collectively generating graded PHS resistance for ...

Schooling Trajectories and the Development of Brain Dynamics: A Comparative Study of Montessori and Traditional Education

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We investigate whether Montessori and traditional schooling systems shape the developmental trajectory of large‐scale brain dynamics in different ways. We quantify the arrow of time (“non‐reversibility”) in neural activity during resting state and movie‐watching, revealing distinct maturational patterns.

Avian remains from Venta Micena (Baza Basin, Granada Geopark) shed light on the Early Pleistocene wetland environments and trophic dynamics of the Southern Iberian Peninsula [PDF]

open access: yesSwiss Journal of Palaeontology
The fossil site of Venta Micena (Baza Basin, southeastern Iberian Peninsula), dated to the Early Pleistocene (1.6–1.5 Ma), is renowned for its huge assemblage of skeletal remains of large mammals, most of which were unburied from two roughly coeval ...

Craving Ravens: Individual ‘haa’ Call Rates at Feeding Sites as Cues to Personality and Levels of Fission-Fusion Dynamics? [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Behavior and Cognition, 2014
Common ravens aggregate in large non-breeder flocks for roosting and foraging until they achieve the status of territorial breeders. When discovering food, they produce far-reaching yells or ‘haa’ calls, which attract conspecifics. Due to the high levels

DRC-1339 use and control of common ravens [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Vertebrate Pest Conference, 2002
Author(s): Spencer, Jack O., Jr. | Abstract: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the Nevada Division of Wildlife (NDOW) have both observed an increase in the population of common ravens (Corvus corax) throughout Nevada. This increase is suspected to be the result of, at least in part, supplemental feeding sources (landfills, road kills ...
