Wing dimorphism of the water strider Limnogonus franciscanus (Stål) (Heteroptera: Gerridae) in a seasonal tropical climate [PDF]
The seasonal occurrence of wing morphs of Limnogonus franciscanus was studied in a mangrove swamp by taking monthly samples during nineteen months. Altogether 428 males and 413 females were collected.

Harnessing cracks in metal films: Design strategies for stretchable conductors
In stretchable electronics, metal film‐based components function either as strain‐insensitive interconnects/electrodes or as strain‐sensitive sensors, both of which are governed by crack‐induced electromechanical responses, yet these two roles have often been discussed separately in previous reviews.

Emotional Valence Influences Empathic Capacity in Adolescence and Young Adulthood
ABSTRACT Introduction Previous research has identified age‐related differences in empathic abilities between adolescence and young adulthood. While cognitive empathy appears to continue to develop from adolescence and into adulthood, the developmental trajectory of affective empathy is less clear.

Classical approaches for coloration analysis are limited by human low‐resolution phenotyping and genetic analysis. Artificial intelligence allows us to find genes beyond the tip of the iceberg that explain color and pattern diversity in nature. ABSTRACT Pigmentation has long served as a powerful system for exploring gene–trait relationships, yet much ...

ABSTRACT Background Muscle mass decline, associated with strength decline, is a hallmark of aging. Yet, strength decline greatly exceeds mass decline. This indicates that aspects of muscle quality and architecture—not reflected by mass—also influence force generating capacity.
