Using fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the animal diet of black rails, yellow rails, and soras
We used fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the diet of yellow rails, Eastern black rails, and sora during the non‐breeding season. Arthropods, particularly ants, were prevalent in their diets, suggesting possible interactions with invasive red imported fire ants.

Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase Is Involved in the Decarboxylation of Aspartate in the Bundle Sheath of Maize [PDF]
We recently showed that maize (Zea mays L.) leaves contain appreciable amounts of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK; R.P. Walker, R.M. Acheson, L.I. Técsi, R.C. Leegood [1997] Aust J Plant Physiol 24: 459–468).

The forage digestibility decreases in the dry season. Fungus isolates from the gastrointestinal tract of healthy sheep were evaluated. Aspergillus terreus isolate was identified by analysis of rDNA and encoding β‐tubulin gene and Trichoderma longibrachiatum was identified by analysis of rDNA and elongation factor 1‐α gene. The T.
