Thermal Plasticity is Regulated by a Key MicroRNA During Range Expansion of an Invasive Fruit Fly

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Populations at the invasion front of Bactrocera dorsalis adapt through reduced phenotypic and gene expression plasticity, a phenomenon likely to be driven by genetic assimilation. We identify a key miRNA‐mediated regulatory axis, in which miR‐276b post‐transcriptionally represses thw, a conserved chitin‐binding gene critical to the cold‐tolerance ...

Marine Protected Areas in Fisheries Management [PDF]

open access: yes
The use of protected areas as a fishery management tool has been suggested as a hedge against management failures and variation in harvests. A stochastic bioeconomic model of a two-species fishery will be used to test the performance of protected areas ...

Little progress in ecoregion representation in the last decade of terrestrial and marine protected area expansion leaves substantial tasks ahead

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation
Adequate representation of biodiversity in protected area networks is a prerequisite for successful conservation. Aichi Target 11 of the Convention on Biological Diversity called for 17 % of land area and 10 % of marine area to be conserved in ...

Self‐Sustaining Piezozyme Platform for Antifouling via Mechanically Triggered Enzymatic Cascade

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Wave‐powered CeO2/g‐C3N4 piezozyme coating converts ocean motion into an enzymatic H2O2‐to‐ROS cascade, realizing 180‐day eco‐friendly marine antifouling. ABSTRACT Harnessing ubiquitous mechanical energy for catalytic activation offers an emerging pathway toward self‐sustaining environmental protection systems.
