Ethiopian Orthodox churches and monasteries help as critical biodiversity sanctuaries, mainly for bird species. The study was carried out in and around Jer Silase Monastery between October and January of 2021 using a stratified sample design by dividing the study area into four habitat types: riverine, cliff, natural forest, and farmland.

Ribosomal RNA N-glycosylase Activity Assay of Ribosome-inactivating Proteins
Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are enzymes that irreversibly inactivate ribosomes as a consequence of their N-glycosylase (EC 3.2.2.22) activity. The enzyme cleaves the N-glycosidic bond between the adenine No.

Germination ecology of Phytolacca americana L. in its invasive range
Phytolacca americana is one of the most invasive weeds in Italy, and we tested whether altitude, light, temperature, and cold stratification affect seed germination. Abstract Invasive species are a worldwide problem, and the germination process is useful to understand the characteristics that allow alien species to be invasive and their projected ...

Spotted wing drosophila: distribution of populations over time in wild and crop hosts [PDF]
Spotted wing drosophila (SWD) was first confirmed in NY at some eastern Long Island farms in 2011. Fruit flies typically attack rotting fruits; SWD, however, feeds in intact fruits.

Combinations of antioxidants and/or of epigenetic enzyme inhibitors allow for enhanced collection of mouse bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells in ambient air [PDF]
Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a treatment for malignant and non-malignant disorders. However, sometimes the numbers of donor hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are limiting, which can compromise the success of HCT.

Unravelling the genomic and environmental diversity of the ubiquitous Solirubrobacter
Solirubrobacter is an often overlooked bacterium prevalent in soil and root zones, exhibiting unique adaptability. Our comparative genomic and metagenomic analyses reveal its widespread presence and a specialized gene set contributing to its resilience in diverse environments and its preference for rhizospheres.

Compartmentalised expression of meprin in small intestinal mucosa: enhanced expression in lamina propria in coeliac disease [PDF]
Epithelial cells in the human small intestine express meprin, an astacin-like metalloprotease, which accumulates normally at the brush border membrane and in the gut lumen. Therefore, meprin is targeted towards luminal components.

Pokeweed Antiviral Protein Inhibits Brome Mosaic Virus Replication in Plant Cells*
Pokeweed antiviral protein (PAP) is a ribosome-inactivating protein isolated from the pokeweed plant (Phytolacca americana) that inhibits the proliferation of several plant and animal viruses. We have shown previously that PAP and nontoxic mutants of PAP
