Decoding Blastocystis‐Driven Mechanisms in Gut Microbiota and Host Metabolism
Blastocystis, a prevalent gut microbe, interacts with the host through metabolic and immune pathways, influencing cardiometabolic health. This perspective explores its role in modulating short‐chain fatty acid production, tryptophan metabolism, and immune signaling, potentially impacting cholesterol absorption, glucose metabolism, and vascular health ...

Deep Learning Object Detection Methods for Ecological Camera Trap Data [PDF]
Deep learning methods for computer vision tasks show promise for automating the data analysis of camera trap images. Ecological camera traps are a common approach for monitoring an ecosystem's animal population, as they provide continual insight into an environment without being intrusive.

This study demonstrates that the miRNA pathway plays a key role in the invasive growth of Alternanthera philoxeroides in aquatic habitats. Specifically, miR162 is critical for its invasive success, facilitating stem elongation and enhancing survival during submergence.

SPUX: Scalable Particle Markov Chain Monte Carlo for uncertainty quantification in stochastic ecological models [PDF]
Calibration of individual based models (IBMs), successful in modeling complex ecological dynamical systems, is often performed only ad-hoc. Bayesian inference can be used for both parameter estimation and uncertainty quantification, but its successful application to realistic scenarios has been hindered by the complex stochastic nature of IBMs ...

Tomato chlorosis virus (ToCV) infection induces production of neophytadiene, a volatile resulting from chlorophyll degradation that is highly attractive to whiteflies. OBP2, an odorant‐binding protein from insect vector B. tabaci, exhibits a strong binding affinity for neophytadiene.

Continual Evolution in Nonreciprocal Ecological Models [PDF]
Feedbacks between evolution and ecology are ubiquitous, with ecological interactions determining which mutants are successful, and these mutants in turn modifying community structure. We study the evolutionary dynamics of several ecological models with overlapping niches, including consumer resource and Lotka-Volterra models.

How the Avengers assemble: Ecological modelling of effective cast sizes for movies [PDF]
The number of characters in a movie is an interesting feature. However, it is non-trivial to measure directly. Naive metrics such as the number of credited characters vary wildly. Here, we show that a metric based on the notion of "ecological diversity" as expressed through a Shannon-entropy based metric can characterise the number of characters in a ...
