Soil mediated local adaptation at the early-life stages of Stipa breviflora is context dependent
AimsSoil conditions are one of the most important selection pressures driving local adaptation of plants. Unfortunately, little attention has been...

Boring life: early colony formation and growth in the endolithic bryozoan genus Penetrantia Silén, 1946
As in most colonial and sessile marine invertebrates, bryozoan life history is characterized by asexual propagation of zooids for colonial growth and...

Inbreeding is associated with shorter early-life telomere length in a wild passerine
Inbreeding can have negative effects on survival and reproduction, which may be of conservation concern in small and isolated populations. However,...

First record of gray rockcod Lepidonotothen squamifrons larvae in the Amundsen Sea, Antarctic: implication for a new spawning ground and early life characteristics
The gray rockcod Lepidonotothen squamifrons is widespread throughout the Antarctic region; however, little is known about its early life information....

Early-life galacto-oligosaccharides supplementation alleviates the small intestinal oxidative stress and dysfunction of lipopolysaccharide-challenged suckling piglets
BackgroundGalacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) are non-digestible food ingredients that promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut. This study...

A single respiratory tract infection early in life reroutes healthy microbiome development and affects adult metabolism in a preclinical animal model
In adult animals, acute viral infections only temporarily alter the composition of both respiratory and intestinal commensal microbiota, potentially...

Leptin receptor co-expression gene network moderates the effect of early life adversity on eating behavior in children
Leptin influences eating behavior. Exposure to early adversity is associated with eating behaviour disorders and metabolic syndrome, but the role of...

Role of the GLP2–Wnt1 axis in silicon-rich alkaline mineral water maintaining intestinal epithelium regeneration in piglets under early-life stress
Stress-induced intestinal epithelial injury (IEI) and a delay in repair in infancy are predisposing factors for refractory gut diseases in adulthood,...

Early-life educational attainment, APOE ε4 alleles, and incident dementia risk in late life
We examined the interactions between educational attainment and genetic susceptibility on dementia risk among adults over 60 years old. A total of...

The Early-Life «Programming» of Anxiety-Driven Behaviours in Adulthood as a Product of Predator-Driven Evolution
In mammals, a persistent increase in anxiety affects animal’s behavioral activities in adulthood consistently and might be “programmed” by early-life...

Early-Life Stress Drives the Molecular Mechanisms Sha** the Adult Phenotype
Exposure to challenging experiences during development, such as reduced parental care and food availability, can have profound effects on the adult... -
Oaks enhance early life stage longleaf pine growth and density in a subtropical xeric savanna
The interplay of positive and negative species interactions controls species assembly in communities. Dryland plant communities, such as savannas,...

Deciphering how early life adiposity influences breast cancer risk using Mendelian randomization
Studies suggest that adiposity in childhood may reduce the risk of breast cancer in later life. The biological mechanism underlying this effect is...

Effects of early life adversity on maternal effort and glucocorticoids in wild olive baboons
AbstractAdverse experiences during early life exert important effects on development, health, reproduction, and social bonds, with consequences often...

Life Tables
Life tables are a way to estimate risks when the occurrence of disease is a function of time and we would otherwise estimate incidence. It does this... -
Life History
All animals have a “life history”, which defines where they live and how they survive and reproduce. The long life history of anguillid eels begins... -
Exposure to different temperature regimes at early life stages affects hatching, developmental morphology, larval growth, and muscle cellularity in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss
In this study, the effects of temperature on hatching, yolk-sac absorption, larval metamorphosis, post-metamorphic growth, developmental morphology,...

Impact of early-life rearing history on gut microbiome succession and performance of Nile tilapia
BackgroundFish gut microbial colonisation starts during larval stage and plays an important role in host’s growth and health. To what extent first...

Nox4 expression in osteo-progenitors controls bone development in mice during early life
Tightly regulated and cell-specific NADPH-oxidases (Nox) represent one of the major sources of reactive oxygen species (ROS) signaling molecules that...
