Biological Diversity, EarlyView.This study employed eDNA technology for biodiversity surveys and conducted high‐density spatiotemporal eDNA sampling to evaluate ecosystem‐scale patterns across temporal, spatial, and habitat dimensions. We identified 97 fish species from 12 orders, 29 families, and 71 genera using eDNA technology. Spatially, fish diversity indices were correlated with

Control of Gemcitabine Activity With Blue and Red Light
Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.Treating cancer with chemotherapy is generally associated with many side effects, which can be addressed by selectively releasing the desired drugs with visible light. Sixteen new blue light‐activatable cytostatics were introduced, with the gemcitabine derivative exhibiting ideal properties.

Role of SoxE transcription factors in development and disease
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Sox8, Sox9, and Sox10 arose by multiple rounds of genome duplications from a single SoxE gene in ancestral vertebrates. In this review, we will briefly discuss the molecular structure and function of SoxE transcription factors and their evolutionary origin. We will then discuss their expression, function, and developmental disorders.

Diversity, 2022 Reduced trophic resources can pose relevant constraints to the development of freshwater animals with complex life cycles. For amphibians, food deprived environments, such as high-altitude ponds and springs and groundwaters are frequently used for ...

An inducible offense: carnivore morph tadpoles induced by tadpole carnivory [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2015 AbstractPhenotypic plasticity is commonplace, and plasticity theory predicts that organisms should often evolve mechanisms to detect and respond to environmental cues that accurately predict future environmental conditions. Here, we test this prediction in tadpoles of spadefoot toads, Spea multiplicata.

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.Abstract There is increasing concern regarding pollutants disrupting the vertebrate thyroid hormone (TH) system, which is crucial for development. Thus, identification of TH system–disrupting chemicals (THSDCs) is an important requirement in the Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development (OECD) testing framework.

Notable Impact of Paleotectonic Stress on Gold Mineralisation in the West Qinling Orogen
Geological Journal, EarlyView.By applying fuzzy clustering and multiple inverse methods, we systematically processed the data of vein and fault slip in this ore deposit to reveal the transition of orogenic geological environment and paleotectonic stress field. Our research results show two different stress states: the northwest–southeast extensional stress field and the northeast ...

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The present study aimed to quantify pesticide residues in environmental matrices and plasma and to evaluate their potential effects on oxidative stress and DNA damage in rural populations of Santa Fe province. Soil and rainwater samples were collected, and biological samples and semistructured surveys were obtained from volunteers in three ...

Oikos, EarlyView.Novel parasite introductions are threatening wildlife communities globally. The degree of threat depends on the ecological context, namely host community characteristics and the presence of other parasites. How these two factors interact to shape the outcomes of parasite introductions is not known. We experimentally investigated how infection following
