Priority effects in coral–macroalgae interactions can drive alternate community paths in the absence of top‐down control

open access: yesEcology, Volume 103, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract The outcomes of species interactions can vary greatly in time and space with the outcomes of some interactions determined by priority effects. On coral reefs, benthic algae rapidly colonize disturbed substrate. In the absence of top‐down control from herbivorous fishes, these algae can inhibit the recruitment of reef‐building corals, leading ...

Redescription of Immature Stages of Phyllophaga menetriesi (Blanchard) (Coleoptera: Melolonthidae) and its Distribution in the Colombian Andean Mountains Redescripción de inmaduros y distribución de la Chisa Phyllophaga menetriesi (Blanchard) en los Andes colombianos. (Coleoptera: Melolonthidae)

open access: yesActa Agronómica, 2006
<p>To facilitate their recognition, the larvae, pupae, and adults of the rhizophage <em>Phyllophaga</em> menetriesi were described. Taxonomic keys were also prepared for immature stages of this pest, which are also commonly known as ...

Nociceptive interneurons control modular motor pathways to promote escape behavior in Drosophila

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Rapid and efficient escape behaviors in response to noxious sensory stimuli are essential for protection and survival. Yet, how noxious stimuli are transformed to coordinated escape behaviors remains poorly understood.

A comparative molecular approach to mesodermal patterning in basal deuterostomes: the expression pattern of Brachyury in the enteropneust hemichordate Ptychodera flava [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
This work concerns the formation of mesoderm in the development of an enteropneust hemichordate, Ptychodera flava, and the expression of the Brachyury gene during this process. Brachyury expression occurs in two distinct phases.

Assessing flower‐visiting arthropod diversity in apple orchards through metabarcoding of environmental DNA from flowers and visual census

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 117-131, January 2023., 2023
The diversity of flower‐visiting arthropods in four Danish apple orchards was assessed using molecular (metabarcoding) and non‐molecular techniques. The aim was to obtain a broader overview of arhtropod communities present to support future management practices towards more sustainable agricultural systems.

IL‐4/IL‐13‐producing ILC2s are required for timely control of intestinal helminth infection in mice

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, Volume 52, Issue 12, Page 1925-1933, December 2022., 2022
ILC2‐derived IL‐4/IL‐13 plays a non‐redundant role for eosinophil recruitment to the lung and expulsion of N. brasiliensis worm parasites from the intestine. Abstract Infection of mice with Nippostrongylus brasiliensis (Nb) serves as a model for human hookworm infection affecting about 600 million people world‐wide.

Flavonoid‐Derived Probes for the Detection of Islet Amyloid Polypeptide Aggregates

open access: yesAnalysis &Sensing, EarlyView.
Misfolding and aggregation of islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) has been implicated in Type‐2 diabetes (T2D), contributing to β‐cell dysfunction. We developed flavonoid‐based probes, F4 and MF1, for detecting IAPP fibrils. These probes showed improved fluorescence response, over 10‐fold higher binding affinity than Thioflavin T and enabled specific ...
