Ceratonia siliqua Protects Testicular Tissue in Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury
ABSTRACT Objectives Testicular torsion is a urological emergency with a risk of resulting in loss of testicular function due to ischemia/reperfusion injury (I/R) injury caused by oxidative stress. Ceratonia siliqua is known to decrease oxidative stress in urological pathologies. We investigated the protective effects of C.

Disentangling the Evolutionary History of the Woody Species in Earth's Most Diverse Tropical Savanna
ABSTRACT Aim We investigate the evolutionary structure of vegetation assemblages in the Cerrado Domain, the main extent of savanna in the American Tropics, a biodiversity hotspot, to understand the role of ecological and geographical factors in constraining plant diversification and shaping biogeographic patterns across this complex mosaic of ...

Late Quaternary Montane Forest Dynamics From Equatorial East Africa: A Biome Perspective
ABSTRACT Aim Understanding environmental change over large spatial and temporal scales requires working at a broad ecological scale to enable cross‐site comparisons. This allows data‐based comparisons to dynamic vegetation model outputs, with utility for climate and land cover modelling.

Abstract Hubs and participants of mature ecosystems increasingly compete with de alio entrants that are hubs of more innovative ecosystems. Prior research shows how these asymmetric de alio entrants frame to win over participants from mature ecosystems and suggests that hubs of these ecosystems should respond by encouraging innovation among ...

How Topic Modeling Can Spur Innovation Management
ABSTRACT The avalanche of available unstructured text data makes it ever more challenging for innovation practitioners (and academics) to extract meaningful insights from such data. Topic modeling can support these efforts and help spur innovation.

Biopiracy and beauty brands? patent trends of cosmetics and skin care companies
Abstract Concerns about the fairness and equity of ‘biodiscovery’ research endure despite the creation of legal frameworks designed to regulate access and benefit sharing involving genetic resources and associated traditional knowledge. While some industries that engage in biodiscovery have been the subject of sustained scrutiny, others have received ...

Use of synanthropic roosts by bats in Europe and North America
Although bats often use buildings for roosting, the true proportion of their populations roosting in buildings is not known. Based on review of radio‐tracking studies, we found that 2× more species and 17× times higher proportion of populations use SRs in Europe than in North America, respectively.

Summary Recent studies have shown a linear relationship between solar‐induced Chl fluorescence (SIF) and gross primary productivity (GPP) at large scales. However, this relationship diverges at finer leaf scales, particularly in tropical forests with complex canopy structures.
