Bioactive Natural Products in Cardiovascular Disease: Focus on Thrombotic Events

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
An overview of the role of natural products (NP) in cardiovascular disease prevention, highlighting key mechanisms of action: including antiplatelet, antithrombotic, anti‐inflammatory, and antioxidant effects. Additionally, it illustrates the integration of diet–drug interactions, nutritional epigenetics, and the role of artificial intelligence in ...

Effect of Edible Films Based on Red Onion Peels on the Quality and Shelf Life of Blueberry Fruit

Journal of Horticultural Research
Blueberries (Vaccinium spp.), valued by consumers for their sensory and nutritional qualities, have a limited shelf life. Preliminary results showed that 14-day storage of blueberry fruits at 3.5 °C enveloped in edible films made of biopolymers ...

Identification of initial vegetation and habitat changes in small temperate fens using remote sensing

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Temperate fens with only incipient, subtle signs of deterioration can be reliably identified using Sentinel‐2 and aerial imagery, which sensitively detect early productivity‐related structural changes. Abstract Small temperate fens rank among the most endangered habitats in temperate Europe.

Seasonal changes of pH and buffer capacity of aqueous homogenates of Vaccinium vitis-idaea and Vaccinium myrtillus leaves

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2015
The newly formed leaves of both Vaccinium species show in June and July the lowest pH values, 3.4-3.7, which gradually increase up to 4.6 in November. The bi- and triennial leaves of Vaccinium vitis-idaea are less acid and show much morę limited seasonal

Habitat selection of moose in Sweden in managed boreal forests with Pinus contorta and P. sylvestris

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Human land use can take advantage of using exotic species to increase financial benefits. However, the use of exotic tree species might affect ecosystem functioning, potentially including the habitat use and movement behaviour of animals, modifying their ecological impact, and interactions with human land use.

Forest and fire drive moose (deníe) detections near their northern range limit

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
One way to understand species range shifts in response to anthropogenic climate change is to study populations living at the limit of climate and resource suitability. Moose Alces alces (deníe in Dënesųłıné) generally require forest–wetland landscape complexes but are increasingly seen across the forest–tundra transition at their northern range limit ...

Climatic conditions, landscape, and habitat quality drive patch occupancy and larval density of a threatened mire butterfly

Insect Science, EarlyView.
The Moorland Clouded Yellow (Colias palaeno) benefited from cattle grazing in three different ways by (i) fostering the nectar supply; (ii) enhancing rejuvenation of the host plant (Vaccinium uliginosum); and (iii) improving microclimatic conditions for successful development of the immature stages.

Influence of light and temperature conditions on anthocyanin accumulation in Vaccinium spp. Berries

, 2016
Anthocyanins are the main pigments in the Vaccinium berries. Besides contributing the characteristic bluish to reddish colors of the berries, anthocyanins are also recognized as potential health beneficial compounds.

Fragment Edges Benefit a Common Predator of Pollinators via Bottom‐Up Effects

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study investigated the hypotheses regarding the effects of habitat fragmentation on spider biomass and causing bottom‐up or top‐down effects on multi‐trophic relationships. ABSTRACT Defaunation following habitat fragmentation typically threatens predators at higher trophic levels, which further alter prey and plants via top‐down effects.
