Demystifying fungal systematics: A gateway to fungal literacy and societal/ecological relevance through familiar species

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Fungal systematics can feel overwhelming given the vast species diversity within this kingdom, with numerous subgroups at every taxonomic rank. This often creates a disconnect between the undertsnidng of fungal taxonomic diversity and their societal relevance.

Adherence to and Invasion of Host Cells by Spotted Fever Group Rickettsia Species

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2010
The pathogenic lifecycle of obligate intracellular bacteria presents a superb opportunity to develop understanding of the interaction between the bacteria and host under the pretext that disruption of these processes will likely lead to death of the ...

Solar farms can mitigate negative impacts of whiplash weather on plant communities in a dryland ecosystem

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Utility‐scale solar energy (USSE) development generates novel questions regarding coupling clean energy production with terrestrial ecosystem services (e.g., forage production, pollinator support). We found that a USSE array sited in a fallowed cropland maintained a reseeded native plant community even a decade post‐restoration and that the array ...

Spotted Fever Group Rickettsiosis and Vectors in Kanagawa Prefecture

Journal of the Japanese Association for Infectious Diseases, 1996
Primer pairs for PCR were designed from the gene encoding the 17,000-molecular-weight genus-common antigen of Rickettsia japonica, Rickettsia rickettsii, Rickettsia conorii, Rickettsia typhi and Rickettsia prowazekii. Primers R1, R2 were designed for amplifying the genomic DNA from spotted fever group (SFG) rickettsiae and epidemic typhus rickettsiae ...

Unravelling Electronic Structure and Molecular Vibrations of Proteins in Virus Using Novel Correlated Plasmon‐Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy With Machine Learning

Small, EarlyView.
A novel, non‐destructive, stable, direct technique, named correlated plasmon‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy (CP‐ERS), which is based on a newly‐developed highly oriented single crystalline gold quantum dots (HOSG‐QDs) chip, is developed to measure and quantify molecular vibrations and electronic structure of analytes.

Recent advances of non‐invasive sensors for smart wearable respiratory monitoring

VIEW, EarlyView.
Respiration contains rich physiological and pathological information, making it one of the most fundamental and continuous vital signs. Respiration monitoring is a non‐invasive and simple, but incredibly powerful, tool for assessing health, managing disease, and tracking fitness.

Tradeoffs between brain and digestive tissues across elevations in Typhlomys daloushanensis: evidence for sexual dimorphism

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
To cope with highly stochastic and/or heterogeneous environmental conditions, animals must balance energy resource allocation across physiological processes. The digestive tract and brain exhibit structural variations under strong developmental and selective pressures that vary across environmental gradients both between and within species.
