The effect of the 13C abundance of soil microbial DNA on identifying labelled fractions after ultracentrifugation
AbstractDNA-based stable isotope probing (DNA-SIP) technology has been widely employed to trace microbes assimilating target substrates. However, the...

Combined transcriptomics and proteomics unveil the impact of vitamin C in modulating specific protein abundance in the mouse liver
BackgroundVitamin C (ascorbate) is a water-soluble antioxidant and an important cofactor for various biosynthetic and regulatory enzymes. Mice can...

Abundance Calculation of Ciliates from Soil
As ciliates cannot directly be extracted from the soil, abundance of ciliates requires culturing them followed by enumeration by variety of methods.... -
The Fate of Soil Organic Carbon from Compost: A Pot Test Study Using Labile Carbon and 13c Natural Abundance
Recycled organic waste (OW) can be a valuable nutrient source for plant cultivation; however, knowledge is poor regarding its effect on soil carbon...

Diversity and abundance of culturable fungal endophytes in leaves of susceptible and resistant alternate hosts of Cronartium pini and C. ribicola
Cronartium pini and C. ribicola are rust fungi that cause destructive diseases of pines ( Pinus spp.). These rusts spread via alternate hosts, among...

Natural δ13C and δ15N Abundance of Plants and Soils Under Long-term N Addition in a Temperate Secondary Forest
Long term atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition affects carbon (C) and N cycling in forest ecosystems, thus changing the stable C isotope abundance of...

Impact of mycoheterotrophy on the growth of Gentiana zollingeri (Gentianaceae), as suggested by size variation, morphology, and 13C abundance of flowering shoots
Gentiana zollingeri is an annual photosynthetic plant that employs a mycoheterotrophic growth strategy during its underground seedling stage (initial...

Abundance and Variety
Seventeenth-century “mechanical philosophy”, particularly its Cartesian form, challenged the long-standing belief in final causes as explanatory... -
Abundance estimation of plains zebras via search–encounter sampling
Spatial capture–recapture (SCR) using search–encounter methods estimate population abundance from encounters of individually recognisable animals...

Connectivity of stormwater ponds impacts Odonata abundance and species richness
ContextThe successful dispersal of an animal depends, partly, on landscape connectivity. Urbanization poses risks to dispersal activities by...

Unveiling global species abundance distributions
Whether most species are rare or have some intermediate abundance is a long-standing question in ecology. Here, we use more than one billion...

Differential Abundance Analysis of Microbiome Data
Differential abundance analysis (DDA) is an active area in microbiome research. The main goal of DDA is to identify features (i.e., OTUs, ASVs, taxa,... -
Zooplankton of Volga River Reservoirs: Structure, Abundance and Dynamics
AbstractThe taxonomic structure and spatial distribution of the late-summer zooplankton in the Volga River from the upper Ivankovo Reservoir to the...

Bayesian N-Mixture Models Applied to Estimating Insect Abundance
Estimating animal abundance is an area of interest for many conservationists and population ecologists. When using count data to obtain abundance... -
Introduced competitor reduces abundance of an imperiled cottontail
Introduced species competing with native species can decrease the density and abundance of native species, causing concern for the persistence of...

Abundance Calculation of Naked and Testate Amoebae from Soil
Protists in soil perform important functions in the decomposer cycle and plant growth and are valued bioindicators for natural and anthropogenic... -
Seasonal abundance of Hyalomma anatolicum tick infesting cattle of coastal Odisha, India
Hyalomma anatolicum is an economically important ixodid tick infesting cattle all around the globe as it is a vector for bovine tropical theilerosis....
