Decomposition Rates and Community Structure of Arthropods in the Litter of Invasive Solidago gigantea Do Not Support the Home-Field Advantage Hypothesis
AbstractDecomposition rates of an invasive plant litter in native-species communities can be slower, since decomposers are not adapted to the litter...

BK channels sustain neuronal Ca2+ oscillations to support hippocampal long-term potentiation and memory formation
Mutations of large conductance Ca 2+ - and voltage-activated K + channels (BK) are associated with cognitive impairment. Here we report that CA1...

No evidence that grooming is exchanged for coalitionary support in the short- or long-term via direct or generalized reciprocity in unrelated rhesus macaques
AbstractReciprocity is a prominent explanation for cooperation between non-kin. Studies designed to demonstrate reciprocity often focus on direct...

Stable isotopes and foraging behaviors support the role of antipredator benefits in driving the association between two marine fishes
Research from terrestrial communities shows that diminished predation risk is a principal driver of heterospecific grou** behavior, with foraging...

FTWSVM-SR: DNA-Binding Proteins Identification via Fuzzy Twin Support Vector Machines on Self-Representation
AbstractDue to the high cost of DNA-binding proteins (DBPs) detection, many machine learning algorithms (ML) have been utilized to large-scale...

Modeling of Mechanized Sugarcane Harvesting to Support Decision-Making on Asset Management
The development and application of modeling in agriculture are a valuable tool that can be used as a guide for research and technology management....

Parallel signatures of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and human Y-chromosome phylogeography support the Two Layer model of East Asian population history
The Two Layer hypothesis is fast becoming the favoured narrative describing East Asian population history. Under this model, hunter-gatherer groups...

An integrated isotopic labeling and freeze sampling apparatus (ILSA) to support sampling leaf metabolomics at a centi-second scale
BackgroundPhotosynthesis close interacts with respiration and nitrogen assimilation, which determine the photosynthetic efficiency of a leaf....

Time perception and patience: individual differences in interval timing precision predict choice impulsivity in European starlings, Sturnus vulgaris
Impulsivity, in the sense of the extent rewards are devalued as the time until their realization increases, is linked to various negative outcomes in...

Pancreatic cancer cells upregulate LPAR4 in response to isolation stress to promote an ECM-enriched niche and support tumour initiation
Defining drivers of tumour initiation can provide opportunities to control cancer progression. Here we report that lysophosphatidic acid receptor 4...

Impoverished fish assemblages of temperate Neotropical streams respond to environmental degradation and support a sensitive Index of Biotic Integrity
Fish as bioindicators are a widely used tool for environmental monitoring of freshwater ecosystems worldwide. However, its adaptation to temperate...

Effects of different lengths of high-intensity interval training microcycles on the systemic and hippocampal inflammatory state and antioxidant balance of immature rats
There is a lack of evidence on the effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) microcycle duration on the antioxidant capacity and hippocampal...

Native plant gardens support more microbial diversity and higher relative abundance of potentially beneficial taxa compared to adjacent turf grass lawns
With increased population growth and suburban sprawl, anthropogenic landscapes such as urban ecosystems are becoming increasingly abundant, with...

Little Evidence to Support the Risk–Disturbance Hypothesis as an Explanation for Responses to Anthropogenic Noise by Pygmy Marmosets (Cebuella niveiventris) at a Tourism site in the Peruvian Amazon
The risk–disturbance hypothesis states that animals react to human stressors in the same way as they do to natural predators. Given increasing...

Validation of an open-source ambulatory assessment system in support of replicable activity studies
Purpose: Inertial-based trackers have become a common tool in data capture for ambulatory studies that aim at characterizing physical activity. Many...

Taking into account change of support when merging heterogeneous spatial data for field partition
The paper describes a geostatistical approach for combining multi-source data with different support for field delineation into homogeneous soil...

Assessing expected utility and profitability to support decision-making for disease control strategies in ornamental heather production
Many farmers hesitate to adopt new management strategies with actual or perceived risks and uncertainties. Especially in ornamental plant production,...

Deviations from temporal scaling support a stage-specific regulation for C. elegans postembryonic development
BackgroundAfter embryonic development, Caenorhabditis elegans progress through for larval stages, each of them finishing with molting. The...
