Melanin and Neurotransmitter Signalling Genes Are Differentially Co‐Expressed in Growing Feathers of White and Rufous Barn Owls [PDF]

Pigment Cell &Melanoma Research, Volume 38, Issue 2, March 2025.
The colouration of the ventral face of barn owls varies from white to rufous, depending on the MC1R (V126I) genotype. This colouration is linked to multiple fitness and behavioural traits. Genes linked to neurotransmitters and synapses are upregulated with melanin genes in a transcriptome of growing feathers from the ventral part of chicks of the ...

The pivotal role of mass spectrometry in transition metal‐based photocatalyst research for solar‐driven energy conversion and water purification advancements

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
This review explores recent advancements in the integration of solar energy conversion and water remediation with mass spectrometry as an analytical technique. We examine Ti‐based photocatalysts for their roles in energy conversion and water purification, utilizing mass spectrometric analysis to evaluate the efficiency of these mechanisms.

A Long‐Term Ecological Research Data Set From the Marine Genetic Monitoring Program ARMS‐MBON 2018–2020

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 4, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Molecular methods such as DNA/eDNA metabarcoding have emerged as useful tools to document the biodiversity of complex communities over large spatio‐temporal scales. We established an international Marine Biodiversity Observation Network (ARMS‐MBON) combining standardised sampling using autonomous reef monitoring structures (ARMS) with ...

Time and matrix quality increase the relative habitat value of smaller patches in fragmented landscapes

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 958-969, April 2025.
In long‐fragmented, light matrix landscapes, small and large patches apparently offer comparable per‐unit‐area habitat value. Conversely, under a harsh matrix, larger patches retain slightly greater habitat value. We speculate that this reflects a ‘colonization credit’, which might occur within smaller patches after the initial loss of fragmentation ...

Hierarchically Porous SnO2/Cu Composites via Freeze Casting and Selective Cu Reduction

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 5, March 2025.
Lamellar SnO2/Cu foams are created by directional freeze casting of SnO2/CuO slurries followed by sintering and hydrogen reduction to achieve an interpenetrating SnO2‐30 vol% Cu structure. When applied as a negative electrode material for lithium‐ion batteries, the interaction between the mesoporous Cu phase and embedded SnO2 enables the reversible ...

Design Principles of an Engineered Metastatic Niche for Monitoring of Cancer Progression

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 122, Issue 3, Page 631-641, March 2025.
The impact of the design parameters of a polycaprolactone scaffold on its ability to serve as an engineered metastatic niche in a murine triple negative breast cancer model was investigated. Escalona et al. identified an interconnected porous structure as a critical characteristic, whereas size and implantation timing were investigated to identify ...

Homospermidine synthase evolution and the origin(s) of pyrrolizidine alkaloids in Apocynaceae

American Journal of Botany, Volume 112, Issue 2, February 2025.
Abstract Premise Enzymes that are encoded by paralogous genes and produce identical specialized metabolites in distantly related plant lineages are strong evidence of parallel phenotypic evolution. Inference of phenotypic homology for metabolites produced by orthologous genes is less straightforward, since orthologs may be recruited in parallel into ...

The Great Lakes Winter Grab: Limnological data from a multi‐institutional winter sampling campaign on the Laurentian Great Lakes

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 10, Issue 1, Page 37-61, February 2025.
Abstract Interest in winter limnology is growing rapidly, but progress is hindered by a shortage of standardized multivariate datasets on winter conditions. Addressing the winter data gap will enhance our understanding of winter ecosystem function and of lake response to environmental change.
