Criteria for selecting the Paganin‐filter reconstruction parameter in X‐ray phase‐contrast tomography

open access: yesJournal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
The development of a criterion for near‐optimal selection of the Paganin‐filter parameter based on noise power analysis measured via an image's noise power spectrum is described.The Paganin filter, widely employed in propagation‐based phase‐contrast X‐ray computed tomography with synchrotron light, attenuates phase effects and suppresses high‐frequency

CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated mutagenesis of the white‐eye gene in the tephritid pest Bactrocera zonata

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Bactrocera zonata is a highly invasive agricultural pest that causes extensive damage to fruit crops. The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT), a species‐specific and environmentally friendly pest control method, significantly benefits from the availability of Genetic Sexing Strains (GSSs) that enable efficient mass production of males for sterile ...

Detection of sex chromosomes in Tephritid pests using R‐CQ and KAMY, two computational methods to support generic pest management applications

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Here, we present R‐CQ and KAMY, two computational methods developed for the detection of sex chromosome‐linked sequences. We evaluate their performance on newly generated chromosome‐level assemblies of four important Tephritid pest species: Ceratitis capitata, Bactrocera dorsalis, Bactrocera zonata, and Anastrepha ludens.

An Overlooked Habitat‐Dependent Link Between Metabolism and Water Loss in Reptiles

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We measured the gas exchange of six lizard and six snake species, under high and low air humidity, and two intriguing patterns emerged. First, although desert species lose less water via evaporation than similar‐sized mesic species under similar conditions, water loss is virtually the same when each is exposed to its natural conditions.

Blubber Thickening Driven by UCP1 Inactivation: Insights from a Cetacean‐Like Transgenic Mouse Model

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
UCP1 inactivation of cetaceans in mice drives BAT whitening and iWAT hyperplasia, promoting fat accumulation for aquatic adaptation. Abstract Cetaceans possess thick blubber, a specialized adipose tissue essential for thermal insulation, a streamlined body form, energy storage, and buoyancy. However, the mechanisms that underpin this adaptation are not

On the need and contents of a specific addiction recovery research agenda

open access: yesAddiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background For decades knowledge about the etiology, epidemiology, neurobiology, typology, and treatment of addiction in various populations has been well documented and widely disseminated. In more recent years, there has been a growing interest in investigating the prevalence, multiple pathways, and mechanisms that facilitate sustained ...
