Digitizing collections to unlock the full potential of palynology: A case study with the Smithsonian palynology collection

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Large palynological collections have been built over decades and contain vital information. However, they are often difficult to access and use effectively. What is the point of having such collections if they are not fully utilizable? To solve this problem, we digitized the Smithsonian palynological collection using both light and confocal microscopy.

Effects of large-scale environment on the assembly history of central galaxies [PDF]

, 2014
We examine whether large-scale environment affects the mass assembly history of their central galaxies. To facilitate this, we constructed dark matter halo merger trees from a cosmological N-body simulation and calculated the formation and evolution of ...

Nanoemulsions for Skin Delivery of Essential Oils: A Systematic Review

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Essential oils (EOs) are recognized for their multiple health benefits. However, their high volatility, low stability, and limited water solubility limit their effective application. This systematic review aims to assess the use of nanoemulsions as delivery systems for the topical administration of EOs, highlighting their efficacy, safety, and

Modulation of DMBA- induced biochemical and histopathological changes by Syzygium cumini seed extract during skin carcinogenesis [PDF]

, 2011
Aim & Method: The current study was designed to elucidate the protective effect of Syzygium cumini seed extract (SCE) on skin carcinogenesis induced by a single topical application of 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (100 μg/100 μl of acetone) and 2 weeks ...

Phylogeny and historical biogeography of the Pachira sensu lato clade (Bombacoideae, Malvaceae) with a new infrageneric classification

TAXON, EarlyView.
Abstract We explore phylogenetic relationships within the Pachira sensu lato clade (Bombacoideae, Malvaceae), test the monophyly of the genera Eriotheca and Pachira, and investigate their biogeographic history. The Pachira s.l. clade comprises ca. 72 species that traditionally have been placed in Eriotheca and Pachira. We sampled ca. 79% of its species

LoCuSS: Connecting the Dominance and Shape of Brightest Cluster Galaxies with the Assembly History of Massive Clusters [PDF]

, 2010
We study the luminosity gap, dm12, between the first and second ranked galaxies in a sample of 59 massive galaxy clusters, using data from the Hale Telescope, HST, Chandra, and Spitzer. We find that the dm12 distribution, p(dm12), is a declining function

Neglected Floral Visitors in the Galapagos Islands: Understanding the Structure of Ant‐Flower Interaction Networks

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ant‐flower interactions are prevalent in many ecosystems, yet their ecological significance remains poorly understood, particularly in isolated systems like the Galapagos Islands, where unique biotic assemblages create distinct interaction networks.
