Nec ut interpres, sed ut orator: Ciceronas – vertėjas. Nec ut interpres, sed ut orator: Cicero the translator

open access: yesLiteratūra (Vilnius), 2011
The article deals with one of the less known areas of Cicero’s work: his translations from Greek into Latin. Such an inquiry on the one hand enriches our knowledge of the author and his attitude toward the Greek original texts; and on the other hand it adds to research into the theory of translation in Antiquity, because Cicero, without doubt, had a ...

The performance of growing degree day models to predict spring phenology of herbaceous species depends on the species' temporal niche

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1207-1220, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The concept of growing degree days (GDDs) is commonly used to predict phenological events in plants, assuming that plants develop proportionally to the accumulated temperature. Two species‐specific parameters, TBase and t0 (minimum temperature above which and start date

Supereste ut pugnatis (pugnatis) ut supereste.

open access: yes, 2013
The title of the work discussed in this paper, 'Supereste ut Pugnatis (Pugnatis) ut Supereste', is derived from the motto (Fight to Live) of the Chemical Defense Establishment located at Porton Down in the UK. The work is a mixed media installation that examines the intersection between the Visual Arts and Bio-Sciences and is conceptually focussed upon

Landscape features predict broad‐scale seed rain patterns across fragments of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 5, May 2026.
Along with precipitation, forest cover emerges as a fundamental driver of alpha and beta diversity in the seed rain. This highlights the role of habitat amount at the landscape level over patch‐level features, like patch size, for seed dispersal. However, increased seed density can be related to higher dispersal rates in forest borders.

Accounting for spatial interactions in the upscaling of ecosystem services

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1671-1687, May 2026.
Abstract Maps of ecosystem service (ES) supply are frequently used to guide spatial planning, policymaking and ecosystem management. However, these are typically based upon coarse land‐cover proxies. This approach lacks a strong mechanistic basis and neglects spatial biodiversity dynamics and interactions among landscape properties that can modify ES ...

Cellularity of Routinely Prepared Cell Blocks: Insights From an International Study

open access: yesCytopathology, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 214-221, May 2026.
This study revealed marked variability in the proportion of poorly cellular cell blocks among preparation methods and laboratories, highlighting the need for improved processing and regular monitoring of cell block adequacy. ABSTRACT Objective Formalin‐fixed, paraffin‐embedded (FFPE) cell blocks (CBs) are widely used for processing cytology specimens ...

From Purpose to Persistence: How Intentional Introductions by Humans Influence Ecological Niches of Non‐Native Plants

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The intentional or unintentional transport of non‐native plants is key to overcoming geographic barriers. However, it remains unclear whether such introduction pathways associate with overcoming environmental barriers, which is key for successful invasion.

The Ti Plasmid‐Encoded VirJ Functions as a Lysyl‐Phosphatidylglycerol Hydrolase in Agrobacterium tumefaciens

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, Volume 125, Issue 5, Page 426-441, May 2026.
We identify the long‐known virulence factor VirJ as a lysyl‐phosphatidylglycerol (L‐PG) hydrolase. Like the chromosomally encoded virulence factor AcvB, it prevents excessive accumulation of L‐PG in the membrane, thereby maintaining efficient T‐DNA transfer via the Type IV secretion system (T4SS) in Agrobacterium tumefaciens.

Plant–Plant Competition Limits Arabidopsis Shoot Branching and Silique Production Independently of Soil Mineral Nutrients, Strigolactones and BRANCHED1

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 2413-2429, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In natural environments, plants compete with neighbouring plants for resources such as light, water and nutrients. To detect neighbours, plants have evolved mechanisms that are poorly understood at the molecular‐genetic level. This study examined the impact of competition on the growth and reproductive success of Arabidopsis thaliana grown in ...
