Differential gene expression in Chorthippus parallelus (Zetterstedt, 1821) (Orthoptera: Acrididae: Gomphocerinae) induced by Wolbachia infection

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Distinct lineages of the grasshopper Chorthippus parallelus (Orthoptera: Acrididae) form a well‐known hybrid zone (HZ) in the Pyrenees mountain range; the Iberian endemism C. p. erythropus (Cpe) and the subspecies C. p. parallelus, (Cpp) widely distributed throughout the rest of Europe. Both subspecies differ in diverse traits, including the strains of

ParAquaSeq, a Database of Ecologically Annotated rRNA Sequences Covering Zoosporic Parasites Infecting Aquatic Primary Producers in Natural and Industrial Systems

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amplicon sequencing tools such as metabarcoding are commonly used for thorough characterisation of microbial diversity in natural samples. They mostly rely on the amplification of conserved universal markers, mainly ribosomal genes, allowing the taxonomic assignment of barcodes.

Optimising management against dynamic threats: A spatially explicit approach based on integer programming

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Defining strategies to control dynamic threats is a highly complex problem that is defined by the biological characteristics of the threatening agents (e.g. invasive species), the landscape context and the management objective within the constraints of limited financial resources.

Human and Mouse Alzheimer's Seeds Differentially Affect Amyloid Deposition and Microglia‐Dependent Plaque Response in Aged Mice

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
This study shows that human and mouse brains contain a different pool of strains that differentially affect the formation of Aβ and tau aggregates. Moreover, the murine seeds trigger an unresponsiveness microglial state, which causes the loss of plaque microglial coverage and affects the formation of amyloid plaques, leading to more severe neuritic ...

Childhood Maltreatment and Cognitive Functioning in Bipolar Disorder: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesActa Psychiatrica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Characterising the association between childhood maltreatment (CM) and cognitive functioning in bipolar disorder (BD) is crucial for improving the understanding of how early environmental risk factors impact the presentation of the disorder.

Motor Dexterity Deficits in Individuals With First‐Episode Psychosis and Their First‐Degree Relatives

open access: yesActa Psychiatrica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Motor dexterity deficits have been observed both before and during first‐episode psychosis (FEP), suggesting this may be a potential endophenotype for schizophrenia spectrum disorders. We aimed to compare motor dexterity performance in FEP patients, their first‐degree relatives, and controls.

Cognitive and Psychomotor Processing Speed in Medication‐Naïve Individuals With First‐Episode of Psychosis: The Role of Peripheral Inflammatory Markers

open access: yesActa Psychiatrica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Hypothesis Deficits in processing speed (PS) and psychomotor speed (PMS) are core cognitive impairments in schizophrenia spectrum disorders, including first‐episode psychosis (FEP). Neuroinflammation has been proposed as a potential contributor to these deficits.

Effects of Anthropogenic Introduction of Substrates on Egg Camouflage and Nesting Success in Ground‐Nesting Birds

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
We show that the introduction of artificial substrates, in this case, dredged materials to act as nesting substrate for ground‐nesting birds, reduced the effectiveness of egg camouflage for Kentish plovers compared to natural substrates. However, nesting success was not impacted, likely because the community of nest predators was diverse and used a ...
