Nonconsumptive effects in a multiple predator system reduce the foraging efficiency of a keystone predator
(2013-08-01)
Many studies have demonstrated that the nonconsumptive effect (NCE) of predators on prey traits can alter prey demographics in ways that are just as strong as the consumptive effect (CE) of predators. Less well studied, ...
The evolution of photosynthesis in chromist algae through serial endosymbioses
(2014-12-10)
Chromist algae include diverse photosynthetic organisms of great ecological and social importance. Despite vigorous research efforts, a clear understanding of how various chromists acquired photosynthetic organelles has ...

Influence of density and salinity on larval development of salt-adapted and salt-naïve frog populations
(2020-01-08)
Environmental change and habitat fragmentation will affect population densities for many species. For those species that have locally adapted to persist in changed or stressful habitats, it is uncertain how density ...
Molecular mechanisms of peripheral nerve regeneration: Emerging roles of microRNAs
(2013-04-01)
microRNAs are small non-coding RNAs that suppress gene expression through target mRNA degradation or translation repression. Recent studies suggest that miRNA plays an important role in multiple physiological and pathological ...
Increased Systemic Th17 Cytokines Are Associated with Diastolic Dysfunction in Children and Adolescents with Diabetic Ketoacidosis
(2013-08-27)
