Diversity of cultivable protease-producing bacteria and their extracellular proteases associated to scleractinian corals [PDF]

PeerJ, 2020
Protease-producing bacteria play a vital role in degrading organic nitrogen in marine environments. However, the diversity of the bacteria and extracellular proteases has seldom been addressed, especially in communities of coral reefs. In this study, 136

Temperature sensitivity and temperature response across development in the Drosophila larva

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2023
The surrounding thermal environment is highly important for the survival and fitness of animals, and as a result most exhibit behavioral and neural responses to temperature changes. We study signals generated by thermosensory neurons in Drosophila larvae
