People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract A keystone species is one whose influence is disproportionate to its abundance, the absence of which would change the dynamics of an ecological or human community. Despite its widespread use in the scientific literature, there is a limited understanding of how the keystone concept is defined or measured, or applied in practice, and especially ...

Developmental gene regulatory network architecture across 500 million years of echinoderm evolution [PDF]
, 2003 Evolutionary change in morphological features must depend on architectural reorganization of developmental gene regulatory networks (GRNs), just as true conservation of morphological features must imply retention of ancestral developmental GRN features ...

First study of the three-gluon static potential in Lattice QCD
, 2008 We estimate the potential energy for a system of three static gluons in Lattice QCD. This is relevant for the different models of three-body glueballs have been proposed in the literature, either for gluons with a constituent mass, or for massless ones ...

Integration of epigenetics into ecotoxicology: insights and fundamental research needs
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Epigenetics refers to heritable changes in genome function that occur without direct alterations to the DNA sequence. A multitude of environmental contaminants can influence the epigenetic marks of a genome. Changes of epigenetic marks including DNA methylation, histone modifications, and non‐coding RNAs can induce alterations at the gene ...

Multiple outflows in the planetary nebula NGC 6058
, 2013 We present narrow-band [O III]lambda5007 and H-alpha images, as well as long-slit high-resolution echelle spectra of the planetary nebula NGC 6058. Our data reveal that NGC 6058 is a multipolar planetary nebula of about ~45 arcsec in extent and formed by
