Using a social‐ecological macrosystems framework to understand how human activities alter ecological synchrony

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Different aspects of ecological systems, biotic or abiotic, often fluctuate in coordinated patterns over space and time. Such high concordance between ecological processes is often referred to as ecological synchrony. Human activities, including and beyond climate change, have the potential to alter ecological synchrony by disrupting or ...

Fast determination of coarse grained cell anisotropy and size in epithelial tissue images using Fourier transform

open access: yes, 2019
Mechanical strain and stress play a major role in biological processes such as wound healing or morphogenesis. To assess this role quantitatively, fixed or live images of tissues are acquired at a cellular precision in large fields of views.

The shared benefits of fallen fruits: A novel mechanism stabilizing a nursery pollination mutualism between Sambucus and kateretid beetles

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Understanding how cooperative interactions remain stable matters for biodiversity because many plants rely on specialist insects that can also impose reproductive costs. We studied the interaction between Sambucus sieboldiana and seed‐consuming Heterhelus beetles through detailed field observations and pollination experiments.

Development of Eye Colors in Drosophila: Extraction of the Diffusible Substances Concerned [PDF]

open access: yes, 1937
The development of eye color in Drosophila is known to involve special diffusible substances [1,2]. A genetically vermilion (v) eye will develop wild-type eye color if it is supplied with v+ substance by transplantation or by injection of body fluid of ...
