Environmental and Genetic Effects on the Composition of Palm Oil From Hybrid Plant Clones of Caiaué and Oil Palm

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The interspecific hybrids (IEH OxG) obtained from the crossing of Elaeis oleifera (Eo) and Elaeis guineensis (Eg) are resistant to some diseases that affect Eg in some regions of South America, and commercial growing in several countries has been established.

A man of his time: Joseph Leidy, racial science, and American anatomy

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Professor Joseph Leidy M.D. was arguably the most influential anatomist in the nineteenth‐century United States, having written over 500 publications and serving as the first President of the Association of American Anatomists. While many of Leidy's diverse contributions to American science and medicine are well‐known, scholars have said much ...

Stem blight resistance of Asparagus kiusianus and its hybrid with A. officinalis

Advances in Horticultural Science, 2014
Resistance of cultivated asparagus (Asparagus officinalis), wild A. kiusianus and their interspecific hybrids to stem blight caused by Phomopsis asparagi (Sacc.) Bubák was evaluated. A. kiusianus had higher resistance than A.

Gene flow and hybridization between numerically imbalanced populations of two duck species in the Falkland Islands. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Interspecific hybridization is common in plants and animals, particularly in waterfowl (Anatidae). One factor shown to contribute to hybridization is restricted mate choice, which can occur when two species occur in sympatry but one is rare.

Guidelines for designing and implementing game‐based learning in comparative anatomy education

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Game‐based learning (GBL) is increasingly used in health professions anatomy education to promote engagement, knowledge acquisition, collaboration, and application of knowledge. However, its application to comparative veterinary anatomy remains fragmented, with limited guidance on how games can be systematically designed around the specific ...

Food‐solicitation displays in nestling birds: still begging for answers

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nestling begging is a key model for understanding animal communication and parent–offspring conflict. Dynamic begging displays are often interpreted as costly, honest signals of need, with honesty maintained by viability costs, as proposed in Godfray's influential signalling model.

Mild Hydrothermal Stabilization: An Innovative Technology for Improving Whole‐Grain Rice Quality in West Africa and Elsewhere

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Whole‐grain (brown) rice has superior nutritional quality but is prone to rancidity, primarily caused by endogenous lipases and oxidases. This study evaluated mild hydrothermal stabilization (MHS), comprising grain surface wetting, followed by short‐duration atmospheric‐pressure steaming, applied to two West African ...

Differential sensitivity to SHH signaling and neural crest‐mediated Gas1 expression regulate jaw size during development and evolution

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Developmental control of jaw size is crucial to prevent birth defects and facilitate evolutionary adaptation. We have shown that jaw size is established by neural crest mesenchyme (NCM), which are progenitor cells that migrate into the mandibular primordia and produce the jaws.

Extracellular vesicles derived from edible plants and edible fungi: Compositional characteristics, engineering strategies and biofunctions

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Non‐animal extracellular vesicles as bioactive‐compound carriers: compositional characteristics, engineering strategies, and biofunctions. Abstract Animal‐derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) were widely used for bioactive compound delivery but constrained by complex origins, potential immunogenicity, and pathogen contamination.
