Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.In this study, we tested whether white and yellow morphs of the common wall lizard (Podarcis muralis) adopt alternative strategies shaped by the immuno‐competence handicap hypotheses (ICHH). We found that testosterone‐induced immune suppression was stronger in white males, while aggression decreased in both morphs.

Pteridines, 1993 In order to carry out a genetic and biochemical analysis of pteridin pathway eye colour loci, sixteen strains of five eye colour mutants of Drosophila melanogaster (2 dke, 7 sf. 3 se, 3 Hnr and 1 bw) from natural populations were used.

Pteridine levels and head weights are correlated with age and colony task in the honey bee, Apis mellifera [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Background. The age of an insect strongly influences many aspects of behavior and reproduction. The interaction of age and behavior is epitomized in the temporal polyethism of honey bees in which young adult bees perform nurse and maintenance duties ...

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.We performed a community science investigation with the beekeepers nationwide to find phenotypic mutants. Alongside a beekeeper in Kentucky, we performed a GWAS to identify a region associated with a white‐eye phenotype. We identified an eight bp region in a non‐coding RNA strongly associated with white eyes.

An Efficient Synthesis of 2'-O-(β-D-Ribofuranosyl)biopterin [PDF]
, 2008 N(2)-(N,N-Dimethylaminomethylene)-3-[2-(4-nitrophenyl)ethyl]-1',2'-di-O (trimethylsilyl)biopterin (4) was prepared from biopterin (1a, 86% overall yield) in 5 steps. Glycosylation of 4 with 1,2,3,5-tetra-O-acetyl-β D-ribofuranose (5a) and its 2,3,5-tri-O-

Photo-reduction of Pteridines [PDF]
Nature, 1956 WHEN a solution of 7-hydroxypteridine1 was spotted on a sheet of Whatman No. 1 filter paper, irradiated with ultra-violet light (principally 254 mµ) for 5 min., and developed (by ascending chromatography) in various solvents, two spots appeared. One of these was identical with the starting material (unirradiated material was used as a control on the ...

Individual identification of bony fishes using unique body markings: Implications and applications
Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract The natural variation in animal body markings, such as spots, stripes and blotches, offers a powerful tool for researchers, conservationists, citizen scientists and resource managers to distinguish specific individuals within species. By building libraries of photo‐identified individuals, we can track and differentiate individuals over time ...
