Endophytic and Epiphytic Microbes as Sources of Bioactive Agents

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2015
Beginning with the report by Stierle and Strobel in 1993 on taxol(R) production by an endophytic fungus 1, it is possible that a number of the agents now used as leads to treatments of diseases in man, are not produced by the plant or invertebrate host ...

pamfit: A new R package for spatially resolved analysis of Imaging PAM photosynthesis–irradiance light curve parameters

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Imaging Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM) fluorometry allows spatially resolved measurements of Photosystem II (PSII) fluorescence kinetics through time without disturbing study organisms or their environments. In particular, the use of photosynthesis–irradiance curves (P–I curves) provides detailed information on PSII quantum efficiency ...

Living on the Edge: Variation in the Abundance and Demography of a Kelp Forest Epibiont

open access: yesDiversity, 2019
The ecology of an epibiont may depend not only on the dynamics of its biogenic habitat but also on microclimate variation generated within aggregations of its host, a process called physical ecosystem engineering.
