Mesoporous PU/PEDOT:PSS Electrodes Reveal Population‐Level Stochastic Bioelectrical Dynamics in Marine Diatoms

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesoporous mixed ionic‐electronic PU/PEDOT: PSS electrodes enable label‐free detection of stochastic extracellular bioelectrical dynamics in living Phaeodactylum tricornutum. Living diatoms actively modulate interfacial ionic dynamics, establishing stochastic electrochemical noise as a sensitive probe of microbial bioelectrochemical activity and a new ...

Seasonality and host-parasite interrelationship of Hysterothylacium aduncum (Nematoda) in whiting Merlangius merlangus off the southern and northern coasts of the Black Sea

Helminthologia, 2016
In the present study, we investigated the comparative infection levels, ecology and host-parasite interrelationship of a nematode Hysterothylacium aduncum (Rudolphi, 1802) in whiting, Merlangius merlangus (L., 1758) in southern (Sinop) and northern ...

Nonhost species reduce parasite infection in a focal host species within experimental fish communities

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
The dilution effect describes the negative association between host biodiversity and the risk of infectious disease. Tests designed to understand the relative roles of host species richness, host species identity, and rates of exposure within ...

Atmospheric Water Harvesting Through Polymer Hydrogel Sorbents: Materials Chemistry, Design Strategies, and Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Polymer‐based hydrogels have emerged as promising materials for atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) due to their high water affinity, tunable network structure, and excellent moisture adsorption‐desorption performance. Functional hydrogel systems enable efficient water capture and controlled release under low‐energy conditions, offering a sustainable ...

Plasticity in transmission strategies of the malaria parasite, Plasmodium chabaudi: environmental and genetic effects

Evolutionary Applications, 2013
Parasites may alter their behaviour to cope with changes in the within‐host environment. In particular, investment in transmission may alter in response to the availability of parasite resources or host immune responses.

The MoSR‐MoDde1 Regulatory Axis: A Novel Determinant of DMI Sensitivity and a Target for Sustainable Rice Blast Control

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The transcription factor MoSR governs DMI fungicide sensitivity in Magnaporthe oryzae through dual regulation of ergosterol biosynthesis and the detoxification enzyme MoDde1. Targeting MoDde1 via a small‐molecule inhibitor or host‐induced gene silencing enhances DMI efficacy against rice blast, offering a sustainable disease management strategy ...

Advancing Fruit Bioimpedance Monitoring With Sustainable, Soft, And Bio‐Based Electrodes Beyond ECG

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Electrical impedance spectroscopy enables non‐destructive fruit quality monitoring, but conventional ECG and needle electrodes compromise signal stability, fruit physiology, and sustainability. This perspective highlights the transition toward soft, biocompatible, and biodegradable electrode interfaces based on natural substrates, bio‐derived ...

Are sleeping site ecology and season linked to intestinal helminth prevalence and diversity in two sympatric, nocturnal and arboreal primate hosts (Lepilemur edwardsi and Avahi occidentalis)?

BMC Ecology, 2018
Background Various factors, such as climate, body size and sociality are often linked to parasitism. This constrains the identification of other determinants driving parasite infections. Here, we investigate for the first time intestinal parasites in two

First study on the helminth community structure of the neotropical marsupial Metachirus myosuros (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae)

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2020
Metachirus myosuros is a marsupial species widely distributed in South America. Despite this, there is a lack of knowledge about its helminth parasites and helminth community structure.
