Helmeted hornbill cranial kinesis: Balancing mobility and stability in a high‐impact joint
Abstract Prokinesis—in which a craniofacial joint allows the rostrum to move relative to the braincase—is thought to confer diverse advantages in birds, mostly for feeding. A craniofacial joint would, however, be a weak link if cranial stability is important. Paradoxically, we have identified a craniofacial joint in helmeted hornbills (Rhinoplax vigil),

Functional activity of peptide ion channels in tethered bilayer lipid membranes: Review
Abstract Ion transport across biomembranes plays a major role in living cells. This fundamental function is normally carried out by molecules with both a hydrophobic and a hydrophilic side (amphiphilic molecules), which aggregate within the membrane forming a hydrophilic pore (the ion channel) permitting the selective translocation of permeant ions ...

Abstract This article reviews the pathological changes in the enamel of permanent mandibular cheek teeth and their sequelae in European roe deer from regions polluted by anthropogenic fluoride emissions. The primary (developmental) changes of fluorotic roe deer enamel are hypomineralization and microstructural aberrations, including enamel hypoplasia ...

Genomic Evaluation of Recombination in Small Highly Inbred Beef Cattle Populations
The study characterizes recombination in small beef cattle populations, revealing higher rates in CGC composites compared to inbred Line 1 Herefords. It identifies significant SNP associations linked to recombination across various autosomes, highlighting complex polygenic influences, with implications for genetic diversity and breeding strategies ...

Topographic thresholds for gully head formation in badlands
Gully topographic threshold model was extended to badlands, on the basis of data collected in the Mediterranean environment in Italy and Spain, characterized by diversified climatic, lithological, geological and anthropogenic settings. Criteria for the attribution of curve number values has been more objectively defined in order to reduce arbitrariness

Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease caused by Brucella spp. which seriously jeopardize the health and safety of animals and human beings. In this study, a genetically stable Brucella rough RA343 strain was obtained by cross‐induction. The virulence and protective efficacy of RA343 were subsequently assessed. Overall, the RA343 strain is a promising novel
