Dental Stigmata and Skeletal Lesions of Congenital Treponematosis in Early Agricultural Vietnam (4000–3500 bp)

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prior research has documented treponematosis at a single site in Mainland Southeast Asia from northern Vietnam dated to the early agricultural transition (~4000–3500 bp). To date, no other cases in Southeast Asia's prehistory have been identified.

Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. allosunkii and lactis as emerging human uropathogens in elderly patients

Journal of Clinical Microbiology
Lactobacillus delbrueckii has been considered a very rare cause of human urinary tract infections (UTIs). However, little is known about its clinical significance and antimicrobial susceptibility, and genomic data from clinical isolates are lacking. This

The complete mitochondrial genome of the dusky brown-gray–colored honeybee, Apis mellifera (insecta: Hymenoptera: Apidae) of New Zealand

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2018
We analyzed the complete mitochondrial genome of the dusky brown-gray–colored honeybee Apis mellifera, collected from North Island, New Zealand. We determined that the mitochondrial genome was a 16,336 bp and predicted 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 ...

Meteorological versus spatial drivers of the spatial synchrony of forest insect pest outbreaks in North America

Oikos, EarlyView.
Spatial synchrony of population fluctuations has major consequences for the impacts of forest insect pest outbreaks at regional scales. We tested the predictions that the strength and drivers of this synchrony would differ among species according to their dispersal abilities and feeding guilds.

Greater future range expansions in alien than native ant species

Oikos, EarlyView.
There is growing concern that many species may not be able to track suitable conditions under climate change and suffer range contractions as a result. At the same time, alien species introduced to novel geographic ranges are often assumed to benefit from climate change.

Exploration of the Phytochemical and Antidiabetic Properties of Teucrium polium: A Natural Asset for Type 2 Diabetes Management

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
Teucrium polium shows antidiabetic activity with its phytochemical composition and biological activities. The essential oil is rich in carvacrol, thymol, γ‐terpinene, and o‐cymene, while the aqueous and hydroethanolic extracts are characterized by poliumoside, verbascoside, isorhamnetin‐3‐O‐rutinoside, and apigenin‐7‐rutinoside. Antioxidant activity is
