‘Outside‐in’ expression of Fz6 across multiple layers of mouse embryo epidermis is connected to Fz6 asymmetry in the basal layer plane. Fz6 loss‐of‐function correlated with failure to: coordinate axial bias of cell long axis orientation across epidermal layers, switch axial cell long axis orientation during suprabasal layer development and establish ...

The Efficacy of Food‐Grade Substances to Protect Dietary Glutamine From Ruminal Degradation
ABSTRACT This study was conducted to investigate the use of four, low cost, food‐grade substances to protect glutamine from microbial degradation in vitro, and subsequently validate their efficacy in vivo. Two in vitro trials were conducted using 250 mL bottles replicated in triplicate to test beeswax‐, paraffin wax‐, zein‐, and rice bran wax ...

The principal arboviral vector Aedes aegypti can develop in coastal brackish water field habitats (0.5–15 g/L salt) with larvae possessing thicker cuticles and greater resistance to the larvicide Temephos. Females emerging from brackish water‐developing preimaginal stages are now shown to have thicker and remodelled leg and abdominal cuticles and ...

Mortality for diatomaceous earth was observed as early as 2 h after exposure with 50% and 90% mortality at 3.5 and 4.6 h (LT50 and LT90, respectively) for Musca domestica. The LT50 and LT90 increased when the size of the fly species increased (M. domestica to Cochliomyia macellaria to Sarcophaga bullata) and increased for all three from 50 to 70 ...

Summary Stomatal closure prevents significant water losses during drought events. Yet, leaves are not perfectly hermetic and dehydration ensues through residual water losses, known as minimum conductance (gmin), which is highly relevant since it informs on the water depletion dynamics under stress.

The underappreciated roles of fog and dew on vegetation and biocrusts
Summary Fog and dew represent minor components of ecosystem water budgets in most ecosystems. However, fog and dew can play an essential role in ecosystem dynamics and are particularly important for water‐limited systems. In addition to serving as direct water inputs, fog and dew can influence microclimate and water redistribution, thereby promoting ...

Cape Verde Islandspopulations experience seasonal drought and high humidity during the growing season, driving drought escape strategies relative to their Moroccan outgroup. Summary Drought response in plants is complex, involving integration across a range of physiological processes.

Evidence for regulation of transpiration in nonstomatal plants: insights from bryophyte gametophytes
Kinetics of cell wall water vapor potential (Ψcw) and resistance of cell wall and plasmatic membrane to water flux in response to cytoplasmic water potential (Ψcyt) during dehydration. Ψcyt was calculated from the WC at any moment of the dehydration curve by using the relationship between −1/Ψw and WC of pressure volume curves and assuming Ψw = Ψcyt ...
