Epizoic Diatom Assemblages on Freshwater Turtles [PDF]
Although freshwater turtles and their epibiotic hosts are a good model for studying epibiotic interactions (including basking, the effects of turtle species, and geographic variation), information on diatom-turtle relationships are sparse, primarily ...

Orchard netting impacts on biodiversity leading to cascading effects at the ecosystem level
ABSTRACT Agriculture must ensure food production without further compromising the ecosystem functions upon which it depends. Agricultural practices should therefore avoid harming farmland biodiversity, especially of taxa that supply the key ecosystem services (e.g.

Partners or passengers? Revisiting the association between diatoms and aquatic animals
ABSTRACT Numerous studies have revealed the importance of research on the communities capable of colonizing animal surfaces (epibionts) and the animals on which they live (basibionts). Very few studies have considered epizoic diatoms, and there are gaps and biases in our knowledge, including the choice of basibionts, the methods used, and the habitats ...

Next Generation Hosts for Protein Recognition, Assembly and More
The original design of synthetic receptors for proteins was based on macrocycles with a hydrophobic core and a polar/charged periphery. This design, geared towards protein recognition, facilitates receptor self‐assembly. Macrocycle oligomerization, in turn, contributes to protein assembly as evidenced in many cocrystal structures.
