Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Shoreline oiling effects and recovery of salt marsh macroinvertebrates from the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill [PDF]
Salt marshes in northern Barataria Bay, Louisiana, USA were oiled, sometimes heavily, in the aftermath of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Previous studies indicate that fiddler crabs (in the genus Uca) and the salt marsh periwinkle (Littoraria irrorata)

Virus‐Induced Gene Silencing in Calendula officinalis (Pot Marigold)
ABSTRACT Virus‐induced gene silencing (VIGS) is a method that exploits plant antiviral defense mechanisms to downregulate endogenous genes. The technique is versatile, rapid, and widely used for functional genomics studies. Here, we report a method for VIGS in the medicinal plant, Calendula officinalis (pot marigold).
