Can ploidy levels explain the variation of Herbertia lahue (Iridaceae)? [PDF]
Genetics and Molecular BiologyPolyploidy is often related with phenotypic variation, as observed in Herbertia lahue, a geophyte species. This study examined the H. lahue polyploid series and departure in cytogenetic, morphometric, and pollen data.

Iron Age to Medieval entomogamous vegetation and Rhinolophus hipposideros roost in south-eastern Wales (UK) [PDF]
, 2006 Karst cave systems are well developed in Wales (UK) and, in some instances, constitute important bat roosts. Ogof Draenen, near Blaenavon in south-east Wales, is the most recent major cave discovery (1994) with already > 70 km of passages explored ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Butterfly wing scales are intricate cuticular functional nanosctructures. This perspective suggests that spatially varying material properties, cytoskeletal constraints, and growth‐driven mechanical instabilities shape the resulting nanoscale architectures created from single cells.

Pollen elicits proboscis extension but does not reinforce PER learning in honeybees [PDF]
, 2013 The function of pollen as a reward for foraging bees is little understood, though there is evidence to suggest that it can reinforce associations with visual and olfactory floral cues.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.As‐spun carbon materials produced from Lignosulfonate, gelatin, and alginate, selected for water solubility, and ability to produce templated sustainable carbon nanostructures. Gelatin and alginate are sacrificial during thermal processing, allowing the production of engineered high surface area nanostructures, which are further characterized for ...
