Seed Quantity and Quality Variation in European Beech (Fagus sylvatica L.): A Comparative Analysis of Different Crop Years

South-East European Forestry
European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) is characterized by inter-annual cycles of seed production (masting), with synchronized high seed production between sites in some years.

Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Analysis of Tumor Heterogeneity and the Microenvironment in Pseudomyxoma Peritonei

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a single‐cell atlas of pseudomyxoma peritonei spanning primary and paired metastatic lesions. Distinct epithelial substates, stromal remodeling, immune exclusion, lipid metabolic reprogramming, and a candidate angiogenic network were identified in metastatic lesions.

The Mast on the House

Wind Energy, 2000
AbstractAn often encountered problem when preparing the basic input data for a wind atlas study is the correction for the influence of the house or hut on which the mast—whose data form the basis of this wind atlas—is placed. The article will describe an experiment where this problem has been addressed.

Identification of flowering-time genes in mast flowering plants using De Novo transcriptomic analysis.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Mast flowering is synchronised highly variable flowering by a population of perennial plants over a wide geographical area. High seeding years are seen as a threat to native and endangered species due to high predator density caused by the abundance of ...

Nanomaterials for Allergy Diagnosis and Treatment: Advances, Opportunities and Translational Challenges

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanomaterials offer dual applications in allergy management. For diagnosis, nanomaterials enhance analytical sensitivity and improve detection in specific IgE and functional assays such as the basophil activation test (BAT). For allergen‐specific immunotherapy, nanomaterials enable allergen masking and controlled release, and effectively modulate the ...

Expected minimum abundance as a function of average fire return interval for six masting-predation scenarios.

, 2012
Masting treatments. (a) and (d): masting probability 0.53 in a time step (or, on average, roughly every three years). (b) and (e): masting probability 0.12 in a time step (or, on average, every 16 years). (c) and (f): no masting. Predation treatments. (a)

The roles of dispersal, fecundity, and predation in the population persistence of an oak (Quercus engelmannii) under global change. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
A species' response to climate change depends on the interaction of biotic and abiotic factors that define future habitat suitability and species' ability to migrate or adapt.

Programmable Encapsulation Enables On‐Demand Proliferation of Therapeutic Bacteria for Potent Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A programmable encapsulation technology is developed to reduce bacterial immunogenicity and proliferation after systemic administration. The cross‐linked polymer networks around individual bacteria enable immunogenic shielding and permit selective proliferation in tumors, allowing the bacteria to convert tumor‐accumulated ammonia into L‐arginine and ...

An ecologist's view of genetics from Studying the genetic basis of masting

, 2021
The mechanisms underlying mast seeding have traditionally been studied by collecting long-term observational data on seed crops and correlating seedfall with environmental variables.

Intrinsic biotic factors and microsite conditions drive seedling survival in a species with masting reproduction

Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Seedling recruitment following a masting event, where more fruits are produced in synchrony and intermittently compared with other species, plays a crucial role in determining species diversity and community structure.
