Field Sandbur (Cenchrus pauciflorus) Seeds in the Same Bur Respond Differently to Temperature and Water Potential in Relation to Germination in a Semi-Arid Environment, China [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The success of a biological invasion relies on the environment and is closely linked to factors such as water and temperature. Invasive plant species display different seed characteristics, including shape.

Selection and plasticity both account for interannual variation in life‐history phenology in an annual prairie legume [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 10, Issue 2, Page 940-951, January 2020., 2020 Our study is a phenotypic selection analysis of total lifetime fitness in a natural selective prairie environment. We compare the predicted and observed phenotypic response, taking care to account for the effect of year‐to‐year variation. We observe a change in mean flowering time that is consistent with the direction of selection when accounting for ...

Biological invasions: a global assessment of geographic distributions, long‐term trends, and data gaps [PDF]
Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2542-2583, December 2025.ABSTRACT Biological invasions are one of the major drivers of biodiversity decline and have been shown to have far‐reaching consequences for society and the economy. Preventing the introduction and spread of alien species represents the most effective solution to reducing their impacts on nature and human well‐being.

Pest categorisation of non‐EU Cicadomorpha vectors of Xylella spp. [PDF]
EFSA Journal, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2019., 2019 Abstract The Panel on Plant Health performed a group pest categorisation of non‐EU Cicadomorpha vectors of Xylella spp. known to be associated with plant diseases. Although all the insects considered in this categorisation are proven vectors of Xylella spp., additional vectors within the order Hemiptera most probably exist but have not been associated ...

Aspirin Resistance and Promoting Blood Circulation and Removing Blood Stasis: Current Situation and Prospectives [PDF]
Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 Aspirin plays a crucial physiological and pathophysiological role in cardiovascular diseases and cerebrovascular diseases by irreversibly inhibiting thromboxane A2. However, some patients may be “resistant” to its effect. The resistance has close association with adverse cardiovascular outcomes and increased mortality, so that resolving the problem of ...
