: In broiler chickens, fractures of wings and legs are recorded at poultry slaughterhouses based on the time of occurrence. Prekilling (PRE) fractures occur before the death of animal, so the chicken was still able to experience pain and distress ...

Phenotypic characterization of local female duck populations in Indonesia
Information on phenotypic traits is a prerequisite in animal genetic resource conservation and improvement. Phenotypic characteristics of 180 Indonesian female ducks collected from six populations (Alabio, Bayang, Magelang, Pegagan, Pitalah, and Rambon ...

Courtship in Drosophila Mosaics: Sex-Specific Foci for Sequential Action Patterns [PDF]
Mosaic fate mapping is used to locate the foci determining sex-specific steps in the mating behavior of Drosophila. Male performance of following females and displaying wing vibration toward them requires that a focus inside the head be constituted of ...

Flappy Hummingbird: An Open Source Dynamic Simulation of Flapping Wing Robots and Animals [PDF]
Insects and hummingbirds exhibit extraordinary flight capabilities and can simultaneously master seemingly conflicting goals: stable hovering and aggressive maneuvering, unmatched by small scale man-made vehicles. Flapping Wing Micro Air Vehicles (FWMAVs) hold great promise for closing this performance gap.

In situ molecular organization and heterogeneity of the Legionella Dot/Icm T4SS
We present a nearly complete in situ model of the Legionella Dot/Icm type IV secretion system, revealing its central secretion channel and identifying new components. Using cryo‐electron tomography with AI‐based modeling, our work highlights the structure, variability, and mechanism of this complex nanomachine, advancing understanding of bacterial ...

The control of wing kinematics and flight forces in fruit flies (Drosophila spp.) [PDF]
By simultaneously measuring flight forces and stroke kinematics in several species of fruit flies in the genus Drosophila, we have investigated the relationship between wing motion and aerodynamic force production. We induced tethered flies to vary their

Strength through diversity: how cancers thrive when clones cooperate
Intratumor heterogeneity can offer direct benefits to the tumor through cooperation between different clones. In this review, Kuiken et al. discuss existing evidence for clonal cooperativity to identify overarching principles, and highlight how novel technological developments could address remaining open questions.
