Research advances of Galliformes since 1990 and future prospects
Avian Research, 2018 Background Galliformes are widely distributed throughout the world and economically important to humans as domesticated animals or gamebirds. They are at a unique position for advancing knowledge and techniques of wildlife conservation as the barometer ...

Interactions between reproductive biology and microbiomes in wild animal species
Animal Microbiome, 2021 Many parts of the animal body harbor microbial communities, known as animal-associated microbiomes, that affect the regulation of physiological functions.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Conservation Businesses and Conservation Planning in a Biological Diversity Hotspot [PDF]
, 2013 The allocation of land to biological diversity conservation competes with other land uses and the needs of society for development, food, and extraction of natural resources.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.CT10 regulator of kinase (CRK) and CRK‐Like (CRKL) are signaling adaptors driving cell adhesion, motility, differentiation, and proliferation. SH2‐domain containing (SH) proteins are enriched in YXXP motifs which when phosphorylated create preferred binding sites for CRK family SH2 domains.

Directions in Conservation Biology Revisited
, 2018 In any scientific endeavour, the object is to understand how the natural world works. In applied sciences this endeavour is further motivated by a need to predict the effectiveness of management interventions based on scientific data, results or theories.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...
