Wolbachia genomes: revealing the biology of parasitism and mutualism
Trends in Parasitology, 2006Wolbachia bacteria are endosymbiotic partners of many animal species, in which they behave as either parasites (in arthropod hosts) or mutualists (in nematode hosts). What biochemistry and biology underpin these diverse lifestyles? The recent complete sequencing of genomes from Wolbachia that infect the arthropod Drosophila melanogaster and the ...

Biology of the Obligate Pollination Mutualism
Structure and Function of Mountain Ecosystems in Japan, 2017Most zoophilous plants are adapted to attract reliable pollination agents by providing floral rewards such as nectar and pollen and by advertising their flowers with nongreen color and nonleafy odor, and facilitate pollination by protruding styles and stamens from flowers.

Mutual leveraging of proximity effects and click chemistry in chemical biology
Medicinal Research Reviews, 2022AbstractNature has the remarkable ability to realize reactions under physiological conditions that normally would require high temperature and other forcing conditions. In doing so, often proximity effects such as simultaneous binding of two reactants in the same pocket and/or strategic positioning of catalytic functional groups are used as ways to ...

Normalized Mutual Entropy in Biology: Quantifying Division of Labor
The American Naturalist, 2004Division of labor is one of the primary adaptations of sociality and the focus of much theoretical work on self-organization. This work has been hampered by the lack of a quantitative measure of division of labor that can be applied across systems. We divide Shannon's mutual entropy by marginal entropy to quantify division of labor, rendering it robust

Political Ecology: On the Mutual Formation of Biology and Culture
Political Psychology, 2014Biology and culture continually and interactively cocreate. In order to fully understand culture, the biological pathways that co‐occur must also be appreciated. And in order to determine how biological influences manifest in social behaviors, culture cannot be discarded.

Ecotourism, conservation biology, and volunteer tourism: A mutually beneficial triumvirate
Biological Conservation, 2008Abstract Funding for basic conservation research is chronically lacking. The potential for ecotourism to fund conservation research exists, but has been little explored. One branch of ecotourism with funding potential is volunteer tourism, where conservation scientists and recruiting agencies develop research projects and volunteers provide funding ...

Mutually synchronized relaxation oscillators as prototypes of oscillating systems in biology
Journal of Mathematical Biology, 1979This paper discusses the analogy between phenomena in populations of coupled biological oscillators and the behaviour of systems of synchronized mathematical oscillators. Frequency entrainment in a set of coupled relaxation oscillators is investigated with perturbation methods.

The biology of two Eimeria species (Protista: Apicomplexa) in their mutual fish hosts in Ontario
Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1982Eimeria degiustii and E. iroquoina were studied in natural infections of their mutual cyprinid hosts the common shiner, Notropis cornutus, and the fathead minnow, Pimephales promelas. Experimental infections involved lab-reared fathead minnows. Oocysts were acclimated to different temperatures to investigate the effects upon the parasites' development

Experimental Cell Research
The tumor microenvironment (TME) 's primary constituents that promote cancer development are cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs). Metabolic remodeling has been shown to control CAF activity, particularly aberrant lipid metabolism. SCD1 can be thought of as the primary enzyme controlling the fluidity of lipid bilayers by gradually converting saturated ...
