Seeing the wood despite the trees: Exploring human disturbance impact on plant diversity, community structure, and standing biomass in fragmented high Andean forests. [PDF]
High Andean forests play a key role in providing ecosystem services for neighboring urban settlements. Here, we aimed to identify and understand the effects of anthropogenic perturbations on diversity, composition, and structure of plant communities, as well as aboveground biomass in high Andean forest remnants in the hinterland of Bogotá.

Roles of Therapeutic Bioactive Compounds in Hepatocellular Carcinoma. [PDF]
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is due to poor prognosis and lack of availability of effective treatment. Novel therapeutic strategies will be the fine tuning of intracellular ROS signaling to effectively deprive cells of ROS‐induced tumor‐promoting events. This review discusses the generation of ROS, the major signaling their modulation in therapeutics.

Pest categorisation of Nipaecoccus viridis
Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Nipaecoccus viridis (Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha: Pseudococcidae), the spherical scale, for the EU. It is of Asian origin and occurs widely in southern Asia, Africa and tropical Australia. It has been introduced to a few countries in the Americas.

Abstract Ensuring that genera are monophyletic should result in a stable classification that better reflects evolutionary history, and which can serve as a framework for answering broader scientific questions. It is also important that species can be assigned to genera easily and unambiguously so as to remove barriers to identification and species ...
