Leveraging target enrichment and genome skimming (Hyb-Seq) of herbarium collections to unlock timber DNA barcoding. [PDF]
Abstract Premise DNA barcoding for timber species identification requires comprehensive reference datasets, informative DNA barcodes, and cost‐effective protocols. We developed a workflow leveraging Hyb‐Seq (target capture sequencing and genome skimming) to address these challenges, and we tested it on four genera from the mahogany family (Meliaceae ...

A Ticklish Affair: Tickling Impacts Play Features in Bonobos. [PDF]
The image sequences show two mother–offspring tickling interactions in bonobos. (a) A female tickles her son's belly with her hands; he shows a full play face and grasps her finger in a play shelter response. (b) A female tickles her daughter with her mouth; the infant shows a full play face. ABSTRACT Heavy tickling has been reported only in humans and

Rearranged limonoids from Khaya senegalensis
The stems of Khaya senegalensis yielded three limonoids which appear to be novel. These compounds were identified on the basis of spectroscopic analysis as methyl 1 alpha,6,8 alpha,14 beta,30 beta-pentahydroxy-3-oxo-[3.3.1(10,2).1(1,4)]-tricyclomeliac-7 ...
