A preliminary field trial to compare control techniques for invasive Berberis aquifolium in Belgian coastal dunes [PDF]
, 2019 Non-native Berberis aquifolium is an invasive species in Belgian coastal dunes. With its strong clonal growth through suckers, this evergreen shrub outcompetes native species and affects dune succession.

Loss of IGF‐1R impairs DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin leading to defective end‐joining
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.IGF‐1R promotes radioresistance by facilitating DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin, enabling non‐homologous end‐joining (NHEJ) repair of double‐strand breaks. Inhibition or loss of IGF‐1R disrupts this recruitment to damage sites, driving compensatory reliance on microhomology‐mediated end‐joining (MMEJ) repair.

A global consistent positive effect of urban green area size on bird richness
Avian Research, 2019 Background Although the species-urban green area relationship (SARu) has been analyzed worldwide, the global consistency of its parameters, such as the fit and the slope of models, remains unexplored.

Population-level diversity-disease relationship (p-DDR) in the human microbiome associated diseases
Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2021 Diversity-disease relationship (DDR) is a de facto standard analysis in the studies of human microbiome associated diseases (MADs). For example, the species richness or Shannon entropy are routinely compared between the healthy and diseased groups ...

Scale‐dependence in species‐area relationships
Ecography, 2005 Species‐area relationships (SARs) are among the most studied phenomena in ecology, and are important both to our basic understanding of biodiversity and to improving our ability to conserve it. But despite many advances to date, our knowledge of how various factors contribute to SARs is limited, searches for single causal factors are often inconclusive,

Raman‐based label‐free microscopic analysis of the pancreas in living zebrafish larvae
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Forward stimulated Raman scattering (F‐SRS) and epi coherent anti‐Stokes Raman scattering (E‐CARS) allow label‐free discrimination of distinct subcellular structures in the pancreas of living zebrafish larvae. Given the straightforward applicability, we anticipate broad implementation of Raman microscopy in other organs and across various biomedical ...

The island species–area relationship: biology and statistics
Journal of Biogeography, 2011 AbstractAim We conducted the most extensive quantitative analysis yet undertaken of the form taken by the island species–area relationship (ISAR), among 20 models, to determine: (1) the best‐fit model, (2) the best‐fit model family, (3) the best‐fit ISAR shape (and presence of an asymptote), (4) system properties that may explain ISAR form, and (5 ...
