Respiratory Organ‐on‐a‐Chip for Disease Modeling: From Architecture to Functional Integration
Respiratory organ‐on‐a‐chip (ROC) models capture key mechanical and cellular cues of the human respiratory system, enabling quantitative dissection of disease mechanisms. This review links ROC architectures to disease modeling, functional integration, and commercialization, and proposes a decision framework that aligns model complexity with mechanistic

Competitive ability of grain legume-barley intercrops towards volunteer crops and weeds [PDF]
Field pea (Pisum sativum L.) and blue lupin (Lupinus angustifolius L.) were either sole cropped or inter-cropped with barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) at two levels of nitrogen application to determine the effects of interspecific interaction in an intercrop ...

The Inheritance of Diagnostic Larval Traits for Interspecific Hybrids of \u3ci\u3ePapilio Canadensis\u3c/i\u3e and \u3ci\u3eP. Glaucus\u3c/i\u3e (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae) [PDF]
Traits distinguishing the closely related tiger swallowtail butterfly species, Papilio canadensis and P. glaucus, include fixed differences in diagnostic sex-linked and autosomal allozymes as well as sex-linked diapause regulation, and sex-linked ...

Interspecific interactions and range limits: contrasts among interaction types [PDF]
There is a great deal of interest in the effects of biotic interactions on geographic distributions. Nature contains many different types of biotic interactions (notably mutualism, commensalism, predation, amensalism, and competition), and it is difficult to compare the effects of multiple interaction types on species’ distributions.

A human microfluidic blood‐brain barrier (mBBB) model enables spatially resolved comparison of nanoparticle trafficking. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), liposomes, and nanoplastics exhibit distinct transport and disruption behaviors, revealing that membrane composition and uptake pathways govern BBB interaction.

Impacts of Wild Pigs on Space Use and Movements of Wild Turkeys During Autumn and Winter
Wild pigs (Sus scrofa) affect native flora and fauna in the areas they invade, including ground‐nesting birds. While results from camera‐based studies have suggested that wild pigs could spatiotemporally impact resource selection of wild turkeys ...

Reproductive interference between sympatric-related species often causes adverse impacts on rare species, which increases the risk of local extinction, particularly in small and isolated populations.

Experimental hybridization and reproductive isolation between two sympatric species of tephritid fruit flies in the Anastrepha fraterculus species group [PDF]
Among tephritid fruit flies, hybridzation has been found to produce local adaptationand speciation, and in the case of pest species, induce behavioral and ecological alterations that can adversely impact efficient pest management. The fraterculus species

Interspecific interactions and premating reproductive isolation [PDF]
AbstractTwo species can interact in several ways: there may occur interspecific competition or aggression, the two species may hybridize or they may interact indirectly through different predator-prey interactions. One consequence of these interactions is the evolution of premating reproductive isolation between the two species.

This study presents the first telomere‐to‐telomere genomes and population resources for Diaporthe pathogens, uncovering the largest known fungal repertoire of secondary metabolite gene clusters. Structural variations and horizontal gene transfer drive cluster diversification, while specific rapidly evolving clusters control virulence, offering novel ...
