Design of a biologically inspired navigation system for the Psikharpax rodent robot [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This work presents the development and implementation of a biologically inspired navigation system on the autonomous Psikharpax rodent robot. Our system comprises two independent navigation strategies: a taxon expert and a planning expert.

Dysregulation of Oral Microbial Eicosapentaenoic Acid Induced by Chronic Restraint Stress Exacerbates Periodontitis via M1 Macrophage Polarization

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The intricate interplay between chronic psychological stress and periodontitis, mediated by oral microbiota and macrophage polarization, remains largely enigmatic. Here, we demonstrate that chronic restraint stress (CRS) exacerbates periodontitis by inducing oral microbial dysbiosis and a consequential shift in host metabolism.

On the structure of psychoeducational constructs: taxometric analysis and epistemological implications

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology
Taxometric analysis (TA) is a technique designed to elucidate the structure of a psychological construct, specifically determining whether the latent variable is categorical (taxon) or dimensional.

LIZARDIA CAPRICORNIA NEW STATUS (POLYCHAETA, HESIONIDAE), INCLUDING MORPHOLOGICAL DATA AND BIOGEOGRAPHIC NOTES

open access: yesRevista de Ciências da Saúde Nova Esperança, 2017
In 2000, the uninominal taxon capricornia Pleijel & Rouse was established as part of a phylogenetic proposal for the taxon Hesionidae (Annelida, Polychaeta), reported from the Great Barrier Reef, Australia.

Comparative Oligo‐FISH Mapping Illuminates Chromosomal Evolution Among Rutaceae Species Diverged Over 50 Million Years

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Oligonucleotide‐based fluorescence in situ hybridization probes were developed in the model citrus species Citrus maxima. These probes were applied to comparative karyotyping across 14 species in the Rutaceae family. This analysis revealed chromosomal evolution in lineages that diverged from Citrus nearly 52 million years ago.

Cross-taxon congruence and environmental conditions

open access: yesBMC Ecology, 2010
Background Diversity patterns of different taxa typically covary in space, a phenomenon called cross-taxon congruence. This pattern has been explained by the effect of one taxon diversity on taxon diversity, shared biogeographic histories of different ...

Crossed Tracks: Mesolimulus, Archaeopteryx, and the Nature of Fossils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Organisms leave a variety of traces in the fossil record. Among these traces, vertebrate and invertebrate paleontologists conventionally recognize a distinction between the remains of an organism’s phenotype (body fossils) and the remains of an organism ...

Adult Sex Ratio as a Demographic Feedback Linking Mating Systems, Parental Care, and Evolution

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Breeding systems are some of the most diverse social behavior, and our team is investigation the evolutionary causes of this diversity. This review summarises our research carried out at the University of Bath. We argue that demographic components of wild populations, especially the adult sex ratio, plays a key role driving breeding system variation ...

Using the Fossil Record to Evaluate Timetree Timescales. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The fossil and geologic records provide the primary data used to established absolute timescales for timetrees. For the paleontological evaluation of proposed timetree timescales, and for node-based methods for constructing timetrees, the fossil record ...

Introgressed Variation in TaMYB7‐A1 Drives Graded Dormancy and Climate‐Adaptive Pre‐Harvest Sprouting Resistance in Wheat

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
TaMYB7‐A1 directly activates TaABI5 to enhance ABA signaling and regulate ABA‐GA homeostasis, enforcing seed dormancy. Its superior allele, derived from wild einkorn introgression, harbors a MITE insertion that elevates expression and two amino acid substitutions that enhance transcriptional activity, collectively generating graded PHS resistance for ...
