Timing is everything: The effect of early‐life seizures on developing neuronal circuits subserving spatial memory

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Spatial memory, the aspect of memory involving encoding and retrieval of information regarding one's environment and spatial orientation, is a complex biological function incorporating multiple neuronal networks. Hippocampus‐dependent spatial memory is not innate and emerges during development in both humans and rodents.

Spatial clustering of hosts can favor specialist parasites

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Generalist parasites seem to enjoy the clear ecological advantage of a greater chance to find a host, and genetic trade‐offs are therefore often invoked to explain why specialists can coexist with or outcompete generalists. Here we develop an alternative

Dietary divergence is associated with increased intra-specific competition in a marine predator

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Optimal foraging theory predicts that when food is plentiful all individuals should take a small range of preferred prey types, but as competition increases less preferred prey will be included in the diet. This dietary switching may not be uniform among

Warming‐Mediated Decreases in Nectar Quality Translate Into Lower Energy Reserves of the Monarch Butterfly (Danaus plexippus)

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, EarlyView.
Warming caused a significant decrease in monarch fat mass, likely due to an observed reduction in sucrose concentration caused by warming of the nectar. Since sucrose fuels fall migration and overwintering, our results suggest climate warming may reduce migration success and overwinter survival.

Trophic Niche in a Raptor Species: The Relationship between Diet Diversity, Habitat Diversity and Territory Quality.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Recent research reports that many populations of species showing a wide trophic niche (generalists) are made up of both generalist individuals and individuals with a narrow trophic niche (specialists), suggesting trophic specializations at an individual ...

Evolutionary patterns and structural divergence of CENH3 in legumes: Implications for haploid induction breeding

open access: yesGrassland Research, EarlyView.
From structure to application: evolutionary insights and genome editing strategies for CENH3‐mediated haploid induction in legumes. Abstract Background The centromeric histone variant CENH3 is crucial for chromosome segregation and haploid induction in plants, yet its evolutionary patterns in legumes remain poorly characterized. Methods We investigated

Do eagle owls select larger water voles?

open access: yesFauna Norvegica
Optimal foraging theory predicts that a hunter should hunt the energetically most profitable prey, often the larger size classes. The eagle owl is a formidable hunter of water voles.

The role of the gut microbiome in the regulation of high‐altitude adaptation

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
This study is the first to elucidate mechanisms of high‐altitude adaptation from the perspective of the rumen ecosystem by using indigenous yaks and Holstein cows that have lived at high altitude since birth as comparative models. Through a systematic comparison of their rumen ecology using multi‐omics approaches—including rumen metagenomics ...
