‘Testing, testing...’ [PDF]

open access: yesActive Learning in Higher Education, 2005
This article reports on a small-scale study of feedback on music students’ written work, in which staff and students were asked to evaluate existing practice and suggest potential modifications. The value of feedback as a communicative learning tool is illustrated through students’ participation in a range ...

Revised Annotations, Sex-Biased Expression, and Lineage-Specific Genes in the Drosophila melanogaster group

open access: yes, 2014
Here, we provide revised gene models for D. ananassae, D. yakuba, and D. simulans, which include UTRs and empirically verified intron-exon boundaries, as well as ortholog groups identified using a fuzzy reciprocal-best-hit blast comparison.

Adaptive evolution is substantially impeded by Hill–Robertson interference in Drosophila [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Hill–Robertson interference (HRi) is expected to reduce the efficiency of natural selection when two or more linked selected sites do not segregate freely, but no attempt has been done so far to quantify the overall impact of HRi on the rate of adaptive ...

Sonographic appearance of angiomyofibroblastoma-like tumor of the scrotum

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasonography, 2019
A variety of extratesticular tumors and tumor-like conditions can occur in the scrotum. Angiomyofibroblastoma is a rare, slow-growing, well-circumscribed mesenchymal tumor, found predominantly in women, and is even a more unusual occurrence in the male ...

Reproductive biology of carpenter seabream (Argyrozona argyrozona) (Pisces: Sparidae) in a marine protected area [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The carpenter seabream (Argyrozona argyrozona) is an endemic South African sparid that comprises an important part of the handline fishery. A three-year study (1998−2000) into its reproductive biology within the Tsitsikamma National Park revealed that ...

Hydrogen sulfide and its potential as a possible therapeutic agent in male reproduction

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenously produced signaling molecule that belongs to the group of gasotransmitters along with nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO). H2S plays a pivotal role in male reproductive processes.

Evolutionary Dynamics of Male Reproductive Genes in the Drosophila virilis Subgroup

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017
Postcopulatory sexual selection (PCSS) is a potent evolutionary force that can drive rapid changes of reproductive genes within species, and thus has the potential to generate reproductive incompatibilities between species.

Effects of icariin as a feed additive on the reproductive function in bucks (Capra hircus)

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science
Improving the reproductive ability and fertility of male ruminants is a central concern in animal husbandry. Phytogenic feed additives, known for their anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory properties, are commonly used in animal feed ...

Disturbance of the expression of circadian genes Per1, Clock and BMal1 in rat liver, lung, testis, kidney and heart under silver nanoparticles action on organism

open access: yesБіологічні студії, 2010
Most of physiological and biochemical processes in living organisms have circa­dian character. Disturbance of the regulation of circadian processes leads to developing different pathological processes and cancer, in particular.

Fgf8-deficient mice compensate for reduced GnRH neuronal population and exhibit normal testicular function

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2015
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is critical for the onset and maintenance of reproduction in vertebrates. The development of GnRH neurons is highly dependent on fibroblast growth factor (Fgf) signaling.
