Warming summers limit reindeer grazing, weakening herbivory pressure in the mountain tundra

Ecography, EarlyView.
Climate change is predicted to alter species interactions by exposing ecosystems to increasingly frequent and intense warm spells. In the mountain tundra, grazing by large herbivores, particularly reindeer, can limit shrub expansion and preserve Arctic plant diversity.

Matrilineal Genetic Structure of Domestic Geese

The Journal of Poultry Science, 2014
In contrast to other farm animals, the matrilineal structure of domestic goose has remained an open question. In this study, we analyzed mitochondrial DNA control region sequence variation of 245 domestic geese to discern the main matrilineal components

Role of ZNF652 in Regulating Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cell Proliferation and Apoptosis via the circRHOT1/SLC38A6 Axis

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a heterogeneous malignancy characterized by high mortality rates. This article presents a discussion of the role of ZNF652 in HCC cell proliferation and apoptosis, thereby identifying a new target for HCC treatment. The expression levels of ZNF652, circRHOT1, and SLC38A6 in HCC and healthy cells were analyzed.

Comparing non‐staining methods with Mutvei's solution to visualize growth increments in short‐lived intertidal marine gastropod shells

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Mutvei's solution is a widely utilized standard staining method for revealing growth increments in biogenic carbonates; however, it is a slightly toxic, destructive approach with varying success across species groups. Therefore, there has been growing interest in finding non‐toxic, less destructive, and straightforward alternative techniques ...
