Host-nested parasite unit.

, 2023
Parasite growth is unlimited (bacteria, phage), as long as the habitat nourishes it. Once the host loses the ability to nourish the parasites, they are condemned to perish.

Silicon Nitride Resistive Memories

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Amorphous SiNx is an attractive resistance switching material for ReRAM applications due to its physicochemical properties, such as humidity resistance, low oxygen diffusivity, and is used as a metal diffusion blocker. By modifying the ratio between N and Si atoms, the microstructure of the SiNx is affected, rendering it possible to change the ...

Massive encapsulation of larval Anguillicoloides crassus in the intestinal wall of Japanese eels

Parasites & Vectors, 2009
Background Within the last 25 years, after the introduction of the swimbladder nematode Anguillicoloides crassus from East-Asia to Europe, a body of work has aggregated on the host parasite interactions in the acquired host Anguilla anguilla. Despite the

Benefits of host genetic diversity for resistance to infection depend on parasite diversity [PDF]

, 2010
Host populations with high genetic diversity are predicted to have lower levels of infection prevalence. This theory assumes that host genetic diversity results in variation in susceptibility and that parasites exhibit variation in infectivity. Empirical

Delaying the Inevitable? U.S. Screwworm Closures and Feeder Cattle Market Dynamics

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biosecurity trade restrictions are commonly framed as preventive measures, yet in many settings they function primarily as policies of delay: they impose immediate market costs while only postponing the arrival of biological risks. This paper evaluates that intertemporal tradeoff using the 2024–2025 US suspension of live cattle imports from ...

The evolution of covert, silent infection as a parasite strategy [PDF]

, 2009
Many parasites and pathogens cause silent/covert infections in addition to the more obvious infectious disease-causing pathology. Here, we consider how assumptions concerning superinfection, protection and seasonal host birth and transmission rates ...

Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.

Cytological and molecular description of Hamiltosporidium tvaerminnensis gen. et sp. nov., a microsporidian parasite of Daphnia magna, and establishment of Hamiltosporidium magnivora comb. nov. [PDF]

, 2010
We describe the new microsporidium Hamiltosporidium tvaerminnensis gen. et sp. nov. with an emphasis on its ultrastructural characteristics and phylogenetic position as inferred from the sequence data of SSU rDNA, alpha-and beta-tubulin.

Turning Disorder Into Advantage: Precisely Tailored Hybrid Phase Interfaces in B‐Doped High‐Entropy (FeCoNiCrMn)3O4 for Lattice Oxygen‐Mediated Seawater Electrolysis

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
This study designs boron‐doped high‐entropy oxide nanosheets with crystalline‐amorphous interfaces. This tailored disorder promotes a lattice‐oxygen‐involved reaction pathway, significantly enhancing the oxygen evolution efficiency and chloride corrosion resistance during seawater electrolysis. It demonstrates a new design principle of using controlled

High water availability increases the negative impact of a native hemiparasite on its non-native host [PDF]

, 2016
Environmental factors alter the impacts of parasitic plants on their hosts. However, there have been no controlled studies on how water availability modulates stem hemiparasites' effects on hosts.
