Warming‐Mediated Decreases in Nectar Quality Translate Into Lower Energy Reserves of the Monarch Butterfly (Danaus plexippus)

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, EarlyView.
Warming caused a significant decrease in monarch fat mass, likely due to an observed reduction in sucrose concentration caused by warming of the nectar. Since sucrose fuels fall migration and overwintering, our results suggest climate warming may reduce migration success and overwinter survival.

Metagenomic mining reveals novel Cas12 subtypes and their evolutionary diversification

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
We identified 4112 Cas12 Proteins and 6 new Cas12 subtypes, revealed their significant diversity in N‐terminal regions, repeat sequences, and sequences motifs. We developed an AI‐driven algorithm, Cas12fam, which allows precise annotation of 18 distinct domains in Cas12 proteins.

Diversity, transfer potential, and transcriptional activity of virus‐carried antibiotic resistance genes in global estuaries

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Estuaries are vital hotspots for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) due to substantial antibiotic pollution. Although viruses have been proposed as key reservoirs and important disseminators of ARGs in environments, their contribution to the estuarine antibiotic resistome remains largely unknown.

Inversion of soil carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus in the Yellow River Wetland of Shaanxi Province using field in situ hyperspectroscopy

open access: yesFrontiers in Soil Science
Soil nitrogen and phosphorus are directly related to soil quality and vegetation growth and are, therefore, a common research topic in studies on global climate change, material cycling, and information exchange in terrestrial ecosystems.

Estimating the Supply Curve for Nutria Pelts From Coastal Louisiana and the Impacts Associated with Declining Prices [PDF]

open access: yes
Nutria harvests vary with price. As pelt prices declined, nutria populations - and wetland degradation have risen. This paper develops a nutria supply model to predict harvests at various prices which are incorporated into a wetland loss model to ...
