Continual decision‐making dynamics across biological organisms
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Decision‐making is a central function of adaptive behaviour in biological agents. However, strategies for adaptive decision‐making can vary substantially across species. Here, we aim to extend the comparative scope of decision‐making analyses to phylogenetically diverse organisms.

Analytical studies of plant gum exudates
, 1986 The gum exudate from Acacia calcigera, a species recently discovered in Australia, has been shown to have a highly positive specific rotation and high molecular weight with a low rhamnose content. These results are characteristic of species within the Section Gummiferae, a predominantly African ...

Early evolutionary history of the seed
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The seed is an essential stage in the life history of gymnospermous and angiospermous plants, facilitating both their survival and dispersal. We reappraise knowledge of the evolutionary history of the gymnospermous seed, from its origin in the late Devonian through to the well‐known end‐Permian extinctions – an interval encompassing the ...

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT One of the major subfields of chemical ecology is the study of toxins and how they mediate interactions between organisms. Toxins produced by harmful algae (phycotoxins) impact a wide variety of organisms connected to the marine food web. Significant research efforts have thus aimed to identify the ecological and evolutionary drivers behind ...

Ecology and evolution of pyrazines in insects
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Chemical communication is the oldest and most widespread form of signalling among and within organisms. Among the many compounds involved in such communication, pyrazines – nitrogen‐containing heterocyclic molecules – are especially intriguing due to their widespread occurrence across the tree of life, from bacteria and fungi to insects and ...

Biotechnology Progress, EarlyView.For biofuels production, hemicellulose pre‐hydrolysate is considered as an attractive feedstock rich in fermentable sugars. The pre‐hydrolysate derived from lignocellulosic biomass comprises, along with sugars, several inhibitors which can hamper its efficient conversion.

Perigraftitis treatment and histology: A case report
Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Currently, the two diagnoses of inflammatory peri‐implant diseases are peri‐implant mucositis and peri‐implantitis. The etiology of peri‐implant mucositis and peri‐implantitis is bacterial colonization of the implant. Thus, removal of the implant should eliminate the infection and allow the inflammation to resolve. However, at least

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Medication‐related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a challenging complication associated with antiresorptive medications. Its exact pathophysiology remains unclear, but dental extractions and infections are known triggers, complicating prevention, and treatment.

Perigraftitis, an independent biologic complication associated with implants placed in grafted bone
Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Perigraftitis is a recently introduced concept describing biologic complications specifically associated with implants placed in grafted bone. It is characterized by inflammation resulting from bacterial colonization of grafted bone and/or residual graft particulates.

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Effective flap management is crucial for successful bone regeneration procedures. Traditional flap release has been performed by the deep split design; recently, the superficial split design revives for its proposed anatomical and biomechanical advantages.
