Hoffmann's two‐toed sloth II: Muscle architectural properties in the thoracic limb of Choloepus (Pilosa: Xenarthra)

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Two‐toed sloths use their thoracic limbs for more frequent and greater suspensory support than three‐toed sloths and have muscle architectural properties consistent with stability of the pectoral girdle, enhanced flexor force/torque applied at the shoulder and elbow joints, and grip on the support as indicated by their myology. Abstract Two‐toed sloths

Microanatomical features of bovids long bones: What are the effects of mass and habitat?

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This study provides the first qualitative and quantitative exploration of inter‐bones and interspecific variations in the microanatomy of long bones in bovids in response to significant changes in body mass and habitat. Abstract Bovids are a valuable group for studying limb long bone adaptations due to differences in size and the environment that the ...

Scratching beneath the surface: Quantification of muscle architecture and myosin heavy chain content in the forelimbs of black‐tailed prairie dogs (Cynomys, Rodentia)

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Black‐tailed prairie dogs are highly social ground squirrels that excavate communal burrow systems, most often in medium‐textured soils. Their forelimbs demonstrate morphofunctional trade‐offs for scratch‐digging and terrestrial ecology, including well‐developed and fast‐contracting proximal musculature with large mechanical advantage paired with ...

Isoprene‐Emitting Transgenic Tobacco Shapes Root Microbiome and Enhances Growth of Co‐Cultivated Non‐Emitting Plants

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Isoprene is the most abundant biogenic volatile organic compound emitted by terrestrial vegetation. Here we report the impact of isoprene on root‐associated microbiomes. Using isoprene‐emitting (IE) transgenic tobacco and isogenic non‐emitting (NE) controls, we performed co‐cultivation experiments in natural soil and analysed plant phenotypes ...

Outcrop and subsurface characterisation of a mixed tidal and wave‐influenced coastline (Triassic Red Beds, SE Spain)

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Paralic depositional systems are complex and heterogeneous sedimentary environments, presenting challenges for predicting reservoir architecture and connectivity. Their stratigraphic and facies variability arises from the dynamic interplay between fluvial, tidal and wave processes, and their sensitivity to sea‐level fluctuations, sediment ...

Bayesian optimized color filter: A fast method for segmentation of plant phenotypes from 3D point cloud images

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Multispectral three‐dimensional (3D) imaging offers substantial potential for plant phenotyping, yet manual segmentation of plant organs remains a bottleneck in breeding programs. We developed a color‐based filtering workflow for faba bean (Vicia faba L.) point clouds that optimizes lower and upper thresholds of spectral indices and broadband ...
