Shallow phylogeographic structure in the declining Mexican Lance-headed Rattlesnake, Crotalus polystictus (Serpentes: Viperidae) [PDF]

open access: yesPhyllomedusa: Journal of Herpetology, 2012
We investigated matrilineal relationships among populations of the Mexican lance-headed rattlesnake (Crotalus polystictus), a pitviper inhabiting high-elevation valleys of the densely populated southernMexican Plateau.

Repeat antivenom administration following crotalidae immune F(ab’)2 antivenom in Agkistrodon species: a case series

open access: yesToxicology Communications, 2023
Crotalidae immune F(ab’)2 [equine] was approved for the treatment of North American rattlesnake envenomation in 2015 and Agkistrodon envenomation in 2021 after a phase 3 trial demonstrated lower rates of late hemotoxicity compared to crotalidae ...

Host‐induced silencing of the Minc09294 effector gene impairs Meloidogyne incognita and M. Enterolobii infection

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Host‐induced gene silencing of the effector candidate Minc09294 significantly impairs Meloidogyne incognita parasitism, markedly reducing gall formation, reproduction, and the development of specialized giant cells, with partial cross‐species effects on M.

Comparative sex chromosome genomics in snakes: differentiation, evolutionary strata, and lack of global dosage compensation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2013
Snakes exhibit genetic sex determination, with female heterogametic sex chromosomes (ZZ males, ZW females). Extensive cytogenetic work has suggested that the level of sex chromosome heteromorphism varies among species, with Boidae having entirely ...

How We Simulate Nanopores

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
Nanopore technology has revolutionized single‐molecule sensing, yet it suffers from an inherent interpretive challenge. Molecular dynamics has emerged as a go‐to method for determining the relationship between the structure of translocating molecules and the nanopore current signals.

Confinement‐Induced Enhancement of Solid‐State Emission Quantum Yield in Rubrene@MOF Hybrid Materials

open access: yesZeitschrift für anorganische und allgemeine Chemie, EarlyView.
Pore‐size‐controlled nanoconfinement of rubrene within UiO‐66 and UiO‐67 suppresses aggregation‐caused quenching and restores bright solid‐state emission. Geometric exclusion and energetic destabilization prevent parallel stacking, yielding solution‐like absorption and fluorescence quantum yields up to 25%.

Bioquímica plasmática de cascavéis (Caudisona durissa LINNAEUS, 1758) em cativeiro Blood biochemical parameters from captivity rattlesnake (Caudisona durissa LINNAEUS, 1758)

open access: yesCiência Rural, 2010
Acidentes com seres humanos envolvendo a espécie Caudisona durissa possuem a mais alta taxa de letalidade dentre os viperídeos brasileiros. Ressalta-se então a importância para a saúde pública da criação dessa espécie em cativeiro para produção de soro ...

No gain from pain: Lack of nociceptor activation suggests no adaptation for defence in the evolution of European viper venoms

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Snake venoms show variability in composition at all taxonomic levels, both within and between species, and the selective pressures underlying this variation have long been debated.

What England Is and What It Claims to Be: Orwell on National Identity

open access: yesThe Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This article suggests that George Orwell's body of work offers a rather unique and insightful two‐part conception of national identity in the context of England, made up of a moral inheritance—the values of liberty, fairness and decency—and a lived sensibility—the fluid, experiential quality of collective life expressed in shared customs ...
