Species variability in the relative strength of intraspecific and interspecific interactions
Understanding cases in restoration and in agriculture in which species diversity improves productivity and ecosystem functioning is crucial due the need to restore degraded habitat and improve crop productivity for a growing human population.

In the 1820’s, a relatively large harbour seal population may have inhabited the Tana River Estuary. Due to heavy persecution, especially in the 1920’s and 1930’s, it was reduced dramatically, and today there are probably less than 40 individuals left ...

THE EFFECTS OF INTERSPECIFIC COMPETITION ON THE DYNAMICS OF A POLYMORPHISM IN AN EXPERIMENTAL POPULATION OF DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER [PDF]
ABSTRACT Populations of Drosophila melanogaster with a fourth-chromosome polymorphism were subjected to different levels of competition with Drosophila simulans. The dynamics of the polymorphism and the equilibrium frequencies of the sparkling allele were seen to depend on the competitive level, while the higher productivity of the ...

Data from: Ontogenetic and interspecific scaling of consumption in insects
The uptake of resources from the environment is a basic feature of all life. Consumption rate has been found to scale with body size with an exponent close to unity across diverse organisms.

IGFBP4 knockdown (KD) impairs preadipocyte proliferation and is associated with IGF1R protein downregulation and attenuated AKT phosphorylation. The mechanisms by which IGFBP4 KD influences the IGF1R/AKT signaling pathway involve newly synthesized proteins and lysosomal degradation pathways. Created in BioRender.

A long‐lived, five‐cell‐type human neurovascular (PENTA) model recreates vascular disorganization and incomplete repair after traumatic brain injury (TBI). By integrating endothelial, glial, neuronal, and immune components within a 3D scaffold, the platform enables time‐resolved analysis of neurovascular remodeling and provides a human‐relevant system ...

Data from: Ontogenetic and interspecific metabolic scaling in insects
Design constraints imposed by increasing size cause metabolic rate in animals to increase more slowly than mass. This ubiquitous biological phenomenon is referred to as metabolic scaling.

Self‐assembled, scaffold‐free full‐thickness skin equivalents with monoclonal, genetically modified N/TERT‐1 keratinocytes represent a novel in vitro model of human skin and skin diseases. The model is highly robust, reproducible, physiologically relevant, and suitable for high‐throughput applications.
