Decoding Blastocystis‐Driven Mechanisms in Gut Microbiota and Host Metabolism

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
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 ...

Litho-paleoecological characteristics of the Upper Ordovician reef Bol'shaya Kos'yu (Ilych River, Northern Urals)

open access: yesЛитосфера, 2016
The litho-paleoecological characteristics of the Upper Ordovician reef Bol’shaya Kos’yu was given. The reef paleolandscape profile - reef plateau, reef internal lagoons, and frontal reef zone was determined, and reef facies were described.

Deep Learning Object Detection Methods for Ecological Camera Trap Data [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
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.

Nanoparticle Delivery of Antisense miR162 Inhibits Invasive Habitat Adaption of Alternanthera Philoxeroides

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
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]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
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 ...

Neophytadiene, a Plant Specialized Metabolite, Mediates the Virus‐Vector‐Plant Tripartite Interactions

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
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.

Resilience of Aboveground Biomass of Secondary Forests Following the Abandonment of Gold Mining Activity in the Southeastern Peruvian Amazon

open access: yesDiversity
Amazon rainforests are critical for providing a wide range of ecosystem services. In the Southeastern Peruvian Amazon; however, goldmining activities are causing severe soil degradation and forest loss.

Continual Evolution in Nonreciprocal Ecological Models [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
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]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
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 ...
