Critical Point in Self-Organized Tissue Growth

open access: yes, 2018
We present a theory of pattern formation in growing domains inspired by biological examples of tissue development. Gradients of signaling molecules regulate growth, while growth changes these graded chemical patterns by dilution and advection.

Update on the Host Range of Different Species of Fruit Flies in Indonesia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Recent reviews on Dorsalis and Dacine fruit flies had implication on host-insect inventory, including in Indonesia. Update is needed because of these changes and due to the rising of fruit and vegetable trade within islands, as well as with neighboring ...

Bridging maternal effects and epitranscriptomics: A novel perspective in developmental biology

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Maternal effects, encompassing both genetic (maternally expressed gene products) and non‐genetic (maternal state) influences, are powerful determinants of offspring phenotype, yet their RNA‐level mechanisms remain incompletely resolved. In parallel, epitranscriptomics, an emerging field centered on chemical modifications to RNA, has revealed ...

Performance of augmentorium as a sanitation technique against fruit flies (Diptera: tephritidae) in Reunion Island [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background. Tephritid fruit flies cause severe damage to fruit and vegetable crops in Reunion Island. Instead of the curative approach to reduce existing populations, the first step proposed for their management is sanitation.

Highly Processed Foods in Binge‐Eating Episodes: The Importance of Improving Food Reporting

open access: yesInternational Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Over the past 60 years, the proportion of highly processed foods rich in refined carbohydrates and added fats in the food environment has increased, coinciding with a rise in binge eating. While past research has focused on individual vulnerabilities for binge eating, emerging evidence suggests highly processed foods may exacerbate ...

State‐Level Politics in Forest Governance: The Role of the Narrative‐Policy Nexus in the Brazilian Amazon

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Deforestation and its social impacts are an enduring challenge in agrarian frontiers, especially in the tropics. Fueled by global demand for commodities, this process is mediated by ideas, concepts, meanings, and policies that uphold socioenvironmental degradation. A key and understudied—arena in which this mediation occurs is the sub‐national
