Dispersal and establishment both limit colonization during primary succession on a glacier foreland [PDF]
, 2009 Plant colonization can be limited by lack of seeds or by factors that reduce establishment. The role of seed limitation in community assembly is being increasingly recognized, but in early primary succession, establishment failure is still considered ...

Biofilm Control by Active Topography with Mucin Coating
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study reports a new antifouling strategy based on a bioinspired design. Mucin coating enhances biofilm control by active topography with beating micron‐sized pillars. Besides the mechanical force of beating pillars, the antibiofilm activities also involve biological factors since mucin coating inhibits swarming motility and c‐di‐GMP synthesis in ...

Feeding ecology and seed dispersal of pigtail macaques (Macaca nemestrina) in Khao Yai National Park, Thailand [PDF]
, 2008 peer reviewedSeed dispersal has a profound influence on structure and diversity in tropical environment. Although all frugivorous primates disperse seeds, the contribution of dispersal by some species in forest regeneration is still discussed.

Multielement Filament Memristor Enabling Multifunctional Neuromorphic Device
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A new type of memristor featuring a hybrid mechanism and multifunctional applications is introduced. The proposed single device combines the alloy metal filament with the oxygen vacancy filament to achieve both resistive and threshold switching with enhanced reliability, mimicking both biological synapses and nociceptors. This study shows that filament‐

Natural regeneration of broadleaved tree species in southern Sweden [PDF]
, 2001 The objective of the present thesis was to examine the effects of silvicultural treatments and seed dispersal from surrounding stands on the establishment of natural regeneration of broadleaved tree species in southern Sweden.

Seed rain and soil seed banks limit native regeneration within urban forest restoration plantings in Hamilton City, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2012 Restoration of native forest vegetation in urban environments may be limited due to isolation from native seed sources and to the prevalence of exotic plant species.
