The dialectics of trauma and political conscientization: A psychosocial study of activism for supporting sexual and gender minoritized communities in Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Traumatic Stress, EarlyView.
Abstract This qualitative study examined the dialectical association between psychosocial trauma and political conscientization in the lives of activists advocating for persons with marginalized sexual orientations and gender identities (2SLGBTQIA+) in São José dos Campos, Brazil.

Intensity and mode of Lindera melissifolia reproduction are affected by flooding and light availability

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
We studied the impact of flooding and light availability gradients on sexual and asexual reproduction in Lindera melissifolia (Walt.) Blume, an endangered shrub found in floodplain forests of the Mississippi Alluvial Valley (MAV), USA.

Evolution of Complex Asexual Reproductive Strategies in Jellyfish [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Naturalist, 2018
Many living organisms in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems rely on multiple reproductive strategies to reduce the risk of extinction in variable environments. Examples are provided by the polyp stage of several bloom-forming jellyfish species, which can reproduce asexually using different budding strategies.

Hydroxamic Acids as HDAC Inhibitor Drug Leads for Malaria

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Malaria is a global health threat, with an estimated 282 million cases and 610,000 malaria‐associated deaths reported in 2024. Most mortality is due to infection by Plasmodium falciparum parasites, with the highest burden occurring in Sub‐Saharan Africa.

Mating-type genes of the anamorphic fungus Ulocladium botrytis affect both asexual sporulation and sexual reproduction

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Ulocladium was thought to be a strictly asexual genus of filamentous fungi. However, Ulocladium strains were shown to possess both MAT1-1-1 and MAT1-2-1 genes as observed in homothallic filamentous Ascomycetes. Here, we demonstrate that the U.

Plasmepsins as Antimalarial Drug Targets—Then, Now, and the Future

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Malaria is a devastating disease caused by Plasmodium parasites. Plasmodium parasites express ten cathepsin D‐like aspartyl proteases, called plasmepsins (PMs). These PMs have diverse roles fulfill diverse functions throughout the parasite's lifecycle, though several exhibit functional redundancies. Among them, PMV, PMIV, and PMX are essential

Patterns of molecular evolution in a parthenogenic terrestrial isopod (Trichoniscus pusillus) [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ
The “paradox of sex” refers to the question of why sexual reproduction is maintained in the wild, despite how costly it is compared to asexual reproduction. Because of these costs, one might expect nature to select for asexual reproduction, yet sex seems

Asexual reproduction: Genetics and evolutionary aspects

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2007
Reproduction is essential to all organisms if they are to contribute to the next generation. There are various means and ways of achieving this goal. This review focuses on the role of asexual reproduction for eukaryotic organisms and how its integration in a life cycle can influence their population genetics and evolution.

The role of vegetative cell fusions in the development and asexual reproduction of the wheat fungal pathogen Zymoseptoria tritici [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background The ability of fungal cells to undergo cell-to-cell communication and anastomosis, the process of vegetative hyphal fusion, allows them to maximize their overall fitness.
