Microplastic leachates impair behavioural vigilance and predator avoidance in a temperate intertidal gastropod

open access: yesBiology Letters, 2018
Microplastics are a ubiquitous source of contaminations in marine ecosystems, and have major implications for marine life. Much effort has been devoted to assessing the various effects of microplastics on marine life.

Developmental expression of COE across the Metazoa supports a conserved role in neuronal cell-type specification and mesodermal development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The transcription factor COE (collier/olfactory-1/early B cell factor) is an unusual basic helix–loop–helix transcription factor as it lacks a basic domain and is maintained as a single copy gene in the genomes of all currently analysed non-vertebrate ...

Catastrophic failure of nacre under pure shear stresses of torsion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Nacre, a composite made from biogenic aragonite and proteins, exhibits excellent strength and toughness. Here, we show that nacreous sections can exhibit complete brittle fracture along the tablet interfaces at the proportional limit under pure shear ...
