Rice crops are especially vulnerable to arsenic exposure compared to other cereal crops because flooding growing conditions facilitates its uptake. Besides, there are still many unknown questions about arsenic’s mode of action in rice. Here, we apply two

The anterior perforated substance (APS) revisited: Commented anatomical and imagenological views
Abstract Introduction Since 2002, when we published our article about the anterior perforated substance (APS), the knowledge about the region has grown enormously. Objective To make a better description of the anatomy of the zone with new dissection material added to the previous, to sustain the anatomical analysis of the MRI employing the SPACE ...

Accounting for bias in prevalence estimation: The case of a globally emerging pathogen
These results highlight the importance of using robust inferences to inform disease risk assessments and to efficiently allocate limited resources during mitigation strategies of infectious diseases. The methods used here can be applied to a wide range of host–pathogen systems, and will be of interest to both researchers and practitioners aiming to ...

Building blocks of polycentric governance
Abstract Success or failure of a polycentric system is a function of complex political and social processes, such as coordination between actors and venues to solve specialized policy problems. Yet there is currently no accepted method for isolating distinct processes of coordination, nor to understand how their variance affects polycentric governance ...

Abstract Insights into declines in ecosystem resilience and their causes and effects can inform preemptive action to avoid ecosystem collapse and loss of biodiversity, ecosystem services, and human well‐being. Empirical studies of ecosystem collapse are rare and hampered by ecosystem complexity, nonlinear and lagged responses, and interactions across ...

Abstract Vector‐borne pathogen transmission is shaped by multiple abiotic and biotic factors. Understanding the relative importance of these factors on vector abundance and infection is important for developing vector‐borne disease control strategies. The crown of the Attalea butyracea palm provides a natural arboreal mesocosm suitable for studying how
