Beyond species means – the intraspecific contribution to global wood density variation
Summary Wood density is central for estimating vegetation carbon storage and a plant functional trait of great ecological and evolutionary importance. However, the global extent of wood density variation is unclear, especially at the intraspecific level. We assembled the most comprehensive wood density collection to date, including 109 626 records from

Human mesenchymal stem cells conditionally secrete sonic hedgehog (SHH)‐containing extra‐large extracellular vesicles (XLEVs) upon PI3K activation, which enriches the GDP‐bound form of Rab18. Rab18‐GDP drives perinuclear maturation and polarized vertical release of SHH‐XLEVs via Hsp90α‐ and nSMase2‐dependent mechanisms.

Abstract The dynamics of suspended particulate matter (SPM) plays a crucial role in determining water quality, sediment transport, and biogeochemical cycles in inland, estuarine, and coastal water resources. Flocculation processes strongly influence the SPM dynamics via aggregation and breakage under various hydrodynamic and biogeochemical conditions ...

In this study, we found that intraperitoneal injection of a high (standard) clodronate‐loaded liposome dose induced persistent peritoneal macrophage depletion, paralleled by marked inflammation and compromised omental integrity. Conversely, low liposome dose caused transient macrophage depletion, low inflammation and no omental alterations, ensuring ...

ABSTRACT This study examines gender disparities in mobile money (MOMO) adoption in Sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA), focusing on how National Financial Inclusion Strategies (NFIS) interact with gender‐based policies on entrepreneurship, mobility, marriage, parenthood, and asset ownership. Using fuzzy‐set qualitative comparative analysis across 16 SSA countries,

Seed dispersal by frugivores facilitates plant reproduction, enhancing germination and seedling survival by reducing risks like diseases and predation under parent trees and potentially directing seeds to favorable sites. Elephants, in particular, are known to strongly impact forests via their seed dispersal patterns because of their ability to ...
