Monoculture Considered Harmful

open access: yesFirst Monday, 2002
Monoculture cotton crops and the economy they supported proved susceptible to a small insect in the early twentieth century. There may be parallels in the Internet in the early twenty-first century.

Seasonal drivers of plant–soil–microbial community structure and functions in Western Himalayan grasslands, Pakistan

open access: yesGrassland Research, EarlyView.
Plant species richness was greater in summer in both alpine and subalpine grassland ecosystems. Soil moisture demonstrates significant positive correlations with soil organic carbon and total nitrogen across seasonal periods. Microbial α‐diversity peaks during summer but maintains functional stability across seasons.

Measuring Software Diversity, with Applications to Security [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this work, we briefly introduce and discuss some of the diversity measures used in Ecology. After a succinct description and analysis of the most relevant ones, we single out the Shannon-Weiner index.

Screening anticancer peptides performance in organotypic prostate tumor‐stroma 3D models

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Peptide‐based drugs have emerged as promising anticancer therapies for their potential to disrupt protein–protein interactions. In this study, the authors developed a physiomimetic human 3D prostate cancer spheroid model to assess the efficacy of the CAVPENET peptide in inhibiting tumor growth. Upon incubation with CAVPENET, prostate cancer

Soil nematode communities in grasslands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This thesis summarizes the results of five studies investigating the effect of plant species on soil nematode communities in grasslands. Nematodes (roundworms) are ubiquitous members of the soil fauna and have been much used as indicators of soil ...

Functionally complementary bacterial inoculant coordinates arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to improve Angelica sinensis root yield and quality

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Comprehensive understanding of how diverse PGPR strains enhance the rhizosphere microenvironment remains a considerable challenge. Here, we provide experimental evidence that a functionally synergistic composite microbial formulation can markedly enhance growth performance and improve the quality attributes in Angelica sinensis.

Organoids and organ‐on‐a‐chip models for investigating the pathophysiology of the human reproductive system

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Organoids and organ‐on‐a‐chips are advancing reproductive system research. In the female reproductive system, applications include cancer organoid models, placental chips, and hormone simulation models. For the male reproductive system, research focuses on drug resistance mechanisms, co‐culture platforms, and infertility studies. These refined in vitro
