Abstract Evolutionary novelties—derived traits without clear homology found in the ancestors of a lineage—may promote ecological specialization and facilitate adaptive radiations. Examples for such novelties include the wings of bats, pharyngeal jaws of cichlids and flowers of angiosperms.

Abstract Atchan is a Kwa language spoken by approximately 150,000 people in and around Abidjan in southern Côte d’Ivoire. In this paper, I describe aspects of the phonology of Atchan, including its consonant and vowel inventory, syllable structure, patterns of nasalisation, and lexical and grammatical tone.

The abundance of the dominant floral visitors across five major watermelon‐growing regions in Australia. Although honey bees were the most abundant pollinators, native taxa including stingless bees and flies also visited flowers and transferred pollen. This highlights the value of using region‐specific pollinator management strategies that include both

Co‐stimulation is the key to full‐blown T‐cell activation. Filamentous shaped artificial antigen‐presenting cells offer a unique opportunity to directly study the role of combined T‐cell receptor (TCR) and co‐stimulatory receptor stimulation. The phenotype, function, and fate of human T cells after in vitro stimulation are mostly influenced with αCD28 ...

Exceptionally high apparent adult survival in three tropical species of plovers in Madagascar
Adult survival is a key component of population dynamics, and understanding variation in and the drivers of adult survival rates and longevity is critical for ecological and evolutionary studies, as well as for conservation biology and practice. Tropical species of landbirds are often selected to have higher adult survival due to high nest predation ...

Microbialite Niches Across the Archean and Paleoproterozoic
Abstract Changes in microbialite abundance during the Archean and Paleoproterozoic have been attributed to a variety of environmental and biological factors, yet past work looking at large‐scale patterns of microbialite abundance generally assumes shallow marine deposition rather than incorporating specific settings.
