Direct and indirect effects of environmental factors on dietary niches in size-structured populations of a wild salmonid [PDF]
Dietary plasticity of populations can be associated to ontogenetic diet preferences and depends on the size-structure of populations. Dietary niche characterizes the functional role of organisms in a food web, as it reflects both resources' diversity ...

Proteomic Profiling of Myofiber Repair Annexins and Their Role in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
ABSTRACT Myofiber regeneration and membrane repair play crucial roles in maintaining the continuous physiological functioning of the neuromuscular system. A swift and efficient repair mechanism enables the rapid restoration of sarcolemmal integrity following cellular impairment in damaged skeletal muscles.

Sexual and parent-offspring dietary segregation in a colonial raptor as revealed by stable isotopes [PDF]
Diet composition and foraging behaviour may show considerable variation among population groups (such as sex- and age-classes), with potentially important consequences for population dynamics.

Land use extent and intensity affect the trophic structure of apex fish in neotropical lagoons
The conversion of natural ecosystems to human land use is a primary cause of worldwide biodiversity loss and trophic structure changes in ecosystems. We investigated the effect of human land use at different spatial extents and aquatic trophic state on ...

Temporal shift in the isotopic niche of female Antarctic fur seals from Bouvetøya
The Antarctic fur seal (Arctocephalus gazella) is a key marine predator in the Southern Ocean, a region that has recently started to show changes as a result of global climate change.

Niche Partitioning of Feather Mites within a Seabird Host, Calonectris borealis [PDF]
According to classic niche theory, species can coexist in heterogeneous environments by reducing interspecific competition via niche partitioning, e.g. trophic or spatial partitioning.

Schematic diagram of the single and dual RPA‐CRISPR/Cas12a/13a diagnostic assays for the detection of Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii and Maize dwarf mosaic virus. The validated assays provide a useful and sensitive molecular tool for detecting two quarantine pathogens of maize within a minimal resource framework suitable for fast‐tracking the ...

Versatile High‐Sensitivity EPR Using Superconducting Spiral Microresonators
A significant sensitivity enhancement in conventional X‐band pulsed EPR is achieved using planar spiral microresonators fabricated from high‐temperature superconducting YBCO. Fully compatible with standard instrumentation, the approach enables high‐fidelity spin control under typical sample conditions.
