Data from: Non-additive effects of intra- and interspecific competition between two larval salamanders

, 2015
1) Assessment of the relative strengths of intra- and interspecific competition has increased in recent years, and is critical to understanding the importance of competition. Yet, whether intra- and interspecific competition can have non-additive effects

Transcriptomic signatures reveal systemic adaptations and immune modulation in response to training and competitive racing in horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The molecular mechanisms underlying adaptation to physical exertion and racing stress in horses remain incompletely understood. Peripheral blood transcriptomics offers a minimally invasive method to monitor systemic responses to exercise and identify biomarkers of adaptation or overload. Objectives To evaluate transcriptomic changes

Interspecific competition between Acartia tonsa and Tisbe sp.

, 2015
Copepod cultures have proven to be of increasing importance for aquaculture and ecotoxicology research. It is therefore crucial to investigate how these cultures can be optimized.

Functionally complementary bacterial inoculant coordinates arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to improve Angelica sinensis root yield and quality

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Comprehensive understanding of how diverse PGPR strains enhance the rhizosphere microenvironment remains a considerable challenge. Here, we provide experimental evidence that a functionally synergistic composite microbial formulation can markedly enhance growth performance and improve the quality attributes in Angelica sinensis.

Competition for food resources affects time-of-deathestimation variables in the forensic-relevant fly species Lucilia sericata and Calliphora vicina

Universitas Scientiarum
In forensic entomology, larval density and competition for food resources among the first cadaver-colonizing insects can affect the accuracy and reliability of the estimated time of death as the minimal postmortem interval (mPMI).

Tiny carriers, big impact: How Fusobacterium nucleatum extracellular vesicles drive oral diseases and beyond

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This review explores how Fusobacterium nucleatum extracellular vesicles drive local oral diseases and distal pathologies via sophisticated cross‐compartment cross talk. It highlights the transformative potential of these “tiny carriers” as next‐generation molecular intermediaries for advanced health monitoring and innovative bio‐interventions by ...

Form and Law ‐ Rupert Riedl's Significance for Morphology

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rupert Riedl showed in his “Order in Living Organisms” that morphology can produce law statements and is, therefore, a proper, that is, nomothetic, science. Furthermore, he coined useful terms (interphene and metaphene) and concepts (burden, cadre and minimal homology).

Shared foraging behaviors between hyenas and hominins in the Middle Paleolithic Levant: New evidence from Geula Cave, Israel

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While competition with large carnivores is likely to have shaped Middle Paleolithic hominins' subsistence behavior, palimpsested human and carnivore accumulations render the signal challenging to isolate. This study presents a detailed zooarchaeological and taphonomic analysis of a non‐anthropogenic faunal assemblage from a MIS 5 (~130–80 ka ...

Spatial Overlap and Behavioral Interactions Among Four Habronattus Jumping Spider Species in a Mixed‐Species Assemblage

Ecology and Evolution
Within mixed‐species assemblages, closely related species may face interspecific competition and reproductive interference. Species may evolve adaptations to outcompete or coexist, though most assemblages likely exist in a nonequilibrium state between ...

Phenolic composition and multi‐target bioactivities of Globularia alypum extracts across seasons

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigates the influence of seasonal variation on the phytochemical profile and biofunctional activities of ethanolic leaf extracts from Globularia alypum. Leaves collected across four seasons were extracted with a hydroethanolic solvent (80:20, v/v) and analyzed by LC‐ESI‐MS/MS.
