Distinct trophic ecologies of zooplankton size classes are maintained throughout the seasonal cycle
Marine food webs are strongly size-structured and size-based analysis of communities is a useful approach to evaluate food webs in a way that can be...

Molecular Structure of Starch
The physicochemical characteristics of starches from enormous sources show a very wide range, resulting in various functional properties, which are... -
RNA Secondary Structure Thermodynamics
Several different ways to predict RNA secondary structures have been suggested in the literature. Statistical methods, such as those that utilize... -
Protein aggregates act as a deterministic disruptor during bacterial cell size homeostasis
Mechanisms underlying deviant cell size fluctuations among clonal bacterial siblings are generally considered to be cryptic and stochastic in nature....

Evolutionary Structure Conservation and Covariance Scores
Effective homology search for non-coding RNAs is frequently not possible via sequence similarity alone. Current methods leverage evolutionary... -
Habitat loss reduces abundance and body size of forest-dwelling dung beetles in an Amazonian urban landscape
The loss of forest cover in urban landscapes alters the dynamics of spatial and food resources, challenging the maintenance of forest species, which...

Effects of sugar concentration on the electroporation, size distribution and average size of charged giant unilamellar vesicles
We investigated the effects of sugar concentration on the electroporation, size distribution and average size of giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs)....

Ecological factors and parity mode correlate with genome size variation in squamate reptiles
BackgroundEvidence of correlation between genome size, the nuclear haploid DNA content of a cell, environmental factors and life-history traits have...

Correlated evolution between body size and echolocation in bats (order Chiroptera)
BackgroundBody size and echolocation call frequencies are related in bats. However, it is unclear if this allometry applies to the entire clade....

Soil Structure and Plant Growth
Soil is a heterogeneous, dynamic, and biologically active porous medium. Soil particles, called the soil solids, rarely exist as independent entities... -
Modified Nucleotides and RNA Structure Prediction
Nucleotide modifications are occurrent in all types of RNA and play an important role in RNA structure formation and stability. Modified bases not... -
Genetic structure and effective population size of Sydney rock oysters in eastern Australia
Oyster reef habitats are critical to coastal biodiversity and their decline has prompted restoration efforts in Australia. Knowledge gaps exist...

Too hot or too cold: the biochemical basis of temperature-size rules for fish and other ectotherms
The well-established temperature-dependence of growth parameters and maximum sizes of fish and other water-breathing ectotherms (WBEs) form the basis...

Long-term changes in adult size of green turtles at Aldabra Atoll and implications for clutch size, sexual dimorphism and growth rates
Around the world, declines in the mean size of nesting sea turtles have been reported with concerns of a concomitant decrease in the reproductive...

Effect of Metabolic Inhibitors on the Size and Structure of Halos Induced by the Powdery Mildew Pathogen Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici on Wheat Leaves
Abstract —A halo is a concentric zone (5–50 µm) of the altered surface of the leaf epidermis of wheat around the penetration site of the causative...

Forest fragmentation and its associated edge-effects reduce tree species diversity, size, and structural diversity in Madagascar’s transitional forests
Tropical forests are being cleared at an accelerating rate, despite being one of the most important habitats for global biodiversity. Many remaining...

The Size-Age Structure and Growth of Whitefish (Coregonidae) in Arctic Lake Ioni, Eastern Chukotka
AbstractThe size–age structure and growth of the Sardine Cisco Coregonus sardinella , the Siberian Whitefish C. lavaretus pidschian , and the Broad...

Corallivory on small Porites colonies increases with coral colony size but is reduced by macroalgal associational refuge
Numerous tropical macroalgae provide associational refuge to other benthic organisms, presumably due to their physical structure and/or production of...
