The human gut microbiome across the life course
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Pyrogenic flowering of Aristida beyrichiana following 50 years of fire exclusion
Ecosphere, 2019 Fire‐stimulated or pyrogenic flowering is one of many traits that enable plants in fire‐prone ecosystems to persist or dominate following frequent fires.

Plant trait-mediated drag forces on seedlings of four tidal marsh pioneer species
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 Salt marshes play an important role in coastal protection by reducing the impact of waves and shoreline erosion risks. While mature vegetation is responsible for the persistence and stability of marsh ecosystems, seedling survival of pioneer species is ...

Complex plant traits: Time for polygenic analysis [PDF]
Trends in Plant Science, 1996 Currently, mapping of genes for complex traits is an area of active theoretical research at the interface of genetics and statistics. Much progress has been made over the past few years in handling statistically complex but realistic multilocus models.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Tree seedling growth allocation of Castanopsis kawakamii is determined by seed-relative positions
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Plants allocate growth to different organs as a strategy to obtain limiting resources in different environments. Tree seeds that fall from a mother tree settle on, within, or below the forest floor and litter layer, and their relative positions can ...

The China Plant Trait Database: toward a comprehensive regional compilation of functional traits for land plants [PDF]
Ecology, 2017 AbstractPlant functional traits provide information about adaptations to climate and environmental conditions, and can be used to explore the existence of alternative plant strategies within ecosystems. Trait data are also increasingly being used to provide parameter estimates for vegetation models.
