Understanding Plant Parasitism: Hydnora Africana and European Scientific Practice in the Early Nineteenth Century**

Berichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, EarlyView.
This article will analyze the uncertainties around collecting and classifying Hydnora africana in the first half of the nineteenth century. Emerging from the distinctive dryland ecologies of South Africa, Hydnora was interpreted as strange and cryptic by Europeans primarily because it is a root parasite—a complex floral trait that was little understood.

Purification of Disassembled Capsid Protein by Hydroxyapatite Chromatography Enhances Virus‐Like Particle Recovery

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Virus‐like particles (VLPs) are a promising modality with extensive applications in prophylactic and therapeutic vaccine design. Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines are one such example where VLP vaccine applications have led to the successful reduction in HPV‐associated diseases, such as cervical cancer.

What drives animal responses to high severity fire? The role of functional traits

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fire regimes are changing worldwide, with increases in the frequency, extent, and severity of fires posing growing risks to biodiversity. Fire severity – the degree of habitat alteration following fire – strongly influences both immediate survival and long‐term recovery of fauna.

Animal empathy reconsidered: a multidimensional profile account

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Empathy is the glue that holds societies together and yet several fundamental questions about empathy persist. What is empathy (the definitional question)? Is it uniquely human and, if not, which nonhuman animals possess empathy (the distribution question)? Which type or quality of empathy is realized in different species (the quality question)
