Variation in Agro-morphological Traits of Some Turkish Local Pop, Flint and Dent Maize (Zea mays L.)

Notulae Scientia Biologicae, 2019
Turkish maize accessions collected from north of Turkey were investigated for agro-morphologic variation in three maize kernel types (flint, pop and dent) including 79 accessions. Eight agronomic and morphologic traits (ear length, ear kernel row number, ear height, leaf number, 1000 kernel weight, tassel length, leaf width and leaf length) were ...

Feeding Laboratory Mice: Comparing a Standard Versus a Purified Diet – Marked Effects on Digestive Physiology

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diet composition and processing have a major impact on its utilisation by the animal, as is known from farm and pet animal species. This includes effects on energy and nutrient digestibility, the intermediary metabolism, and the intestinal microbiome, with all the resulting impacts. For laboratory animals, data is scarce on influencing factors

The Astrocyte Clock Controls Circadian Perineuronal Net Remodeling, Synapse Strength and Learning Behavior

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 10, October 2026.
Bmal1 regulates astrocyte extracellular matrix (ECM) gene expression. Bmal1 deletion in astrocytes disrupts normal circadian rhythms in perineuronal nets (PNN) and reduces PNN content in the hippocampus. In parallel with loss of PNNs, deletion of the core circadian clock gene Bmal1 in astrocytes alters behavior and synaptic function in vivo.

MIND diet, cerebrovascular health, and cognition among community‐dwelling older adults

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Understanding of the Mediterranean–Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension Intervention for Neurodegenerative Disease (MIND) diet's association with cerebral arteriosclerosis, and whether cerebrovascular outcomes link diet to cognition is limited. METHODS We included 713 participants (81 ± 7.2 years old, 77% female, 16 ± 2.9 years

Designing the MyoFusion Media: A Serum‐Free Medium Optimized for Bovine Satellite Cell Differentiation

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 123, Issue 8, Page 2048-2061, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Cultivated meat production requires efficient differentiation of muscle progenitor cells into myotubes without relying on animal‐derived serum, which poses ethical and scalability challenges. This study aimed to develop a chemically defined, serum‐free medium optimized for bovine satellite cell differentiation.

Echoes of Evolution in Holocentridae: Harmony Between Phylogeny, Morphology and Acoustics

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Using phylogenetic, morphological, and acoustic data from 53 species, we reconstructed the evolution of acoustic communication in nocturnal reef fishes of the family Holocentridae. Our results reveal two major clades with distinct sound‐producing morphologies and acoustic features, and suggest a three‐step diversification process involving the ...

Testing optimal defense theory: Root resistance selection in chicory (Cichorium intybus) reduces foliar defense and alters aphid performance and feeding behavior

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 8, Page 7951-7960, August 2026.
Root‐focused resistance in chicory reduces defenses in leaves, impairing root aphids but enhancing foliar aphid performance. Selecting root resistance can create unintended trade‐offs across plant organs. Abstract BACKGROUND Plants are constantly exposed to a wide range of herbivores at both aboveground (AG) and belowground (BG) levels, involving ...
