The Keystone‐Pathogen Hypothesis Updated: The Role of Porphyromonas gingivalis in Periodontitis
Porphyromonas gingivalis orchestrates a coordinated manipulation of immune and inflammatory responses in periodontal tissues which leads to the generation of a dysbiotic, subgingival biofilm community, and progression of periodontitis. The type 9 secretion system, lipid A modification, and the formation of outer membrane vesicles are important ...

Food webs in forest and pasture streams in the Waikato region, New Zealand: A study based on analyses of stable isotopes of carbon and nitrogen, and fish gut contents. [PDF]
Stable isotopes of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) were studied in 11 stream communities in the Waikato region of New Zealand. From comparisons of mean d13C and d15N values, food webs in the shaded, forest streams were clearly based on allochthonous material

Growth and population dynamics of crayfish Paranephrops planifrons in streams within native forest and pastoral land uses [PDF]
Population dynamics of crayfish (Paranephrops planifrons White) in streams draining native forest and pastoral catchments, Waikato, New Zealand, were investigated from September 1996 to July 1998.

The Single, the Whole, and the Pooled: Implications of Tissue Choice for Stable Isotope Analysis
ABSTRACT In the exciting era of non‐invasive tissue sampling and data reuse via open access databases, it is increasingly challenging to ensure comparability of sample types for stable isotope analysis in ecology. According to the theoretical predictions about the changes in the stable isotope values between prey and consumers and tissue turnover rates,

The red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) was introduced from Japan to China in the 1920s. Crayfish are now widely distributed in almost all types of freshwater wetlands, including rice fields, ditches, swamps, lakes, and ponds in most provinces of ...

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

ABSTRACT Relieving barriers and increasing free flowing rivers is a global imperative to restore habitat connectivity for migratory fish stocks. While reducing river fragmentation will certainly improve biodiversity, the spread of non‐native species throughout a river system may be facilitated as an inadvertent outcome.
