Chromatin organization and behavior in HRAS-transformed mouse fibroblasts
In higher eukaryotic cells, a string of nucleosomes, where long genomic DNA is wrapped around core histones, are rather irregularly folded into a...

Stochastic modeling of aging cells reveals how damage accumulation, repair, and cell-division asymmetry affect clonal senescence and population fitness
BackgroundAsymmetry during cellular division, both in the uneven partitioning of damaged cellular components and of cell volume, is a cell biological...

Effect of different pasture species on welfare and behavior of slow-growing broiler chickens in free-range production system
This study investigated the effect of various pasture species on the welfare and behavior of slow-growing broiler chickens in the free-range...

Fluctuations in population size and migration of two species of crossbills in relation to seed crop size of spruce and pine: asymmetric importance of alternative food resources
Bird species depending on seeds from masting trees face large temporal and spatial variation in food availability and perform nomadic or irruptive...

Curvature sensing lipid dynamics in a mitochondrial inner membrane model
Membrane curvature is essential for many cellular structures and processes, and factors such as leaflet asymmetry, lipid composition, and proteins...

General Introduction of Flatfish Metamorphosis
First, we provided a brief introduction to metamorphosis in various fishes. Then, we discussed the metamorphosis of 13 flatfish species. The pivotal...

Androgens, antlers, and sexual selection: testosterone’s relationship to reproductive success and associated morphological characteristics in white-tailed deer
While hormones such as testosterone are known to drive reproduction and sexually selected traits in many species, research demonstrating a...

Density fluctuations, homeostasis, and reproduction effects in bacteria
Single-cells grow by increasing their biomass and size. Here, we report that while mass and size accumulation rates of single Escherichia coli cells...

Spatial pattern analysis of forest trees based on the vectorial mark
Analysis of spatial patterns to describe the spatial correlation between a tree location and marks (i.e., structural variables), can reveal stand...

Long-term dynamics of the network structures in seed dispersal associated with fluctuations in bird migration and fruit abundance patterns
In temperate zones, seed-dispersal networks by migratory birds are formed on long time scale. In mid-October from 2005 to 2016, to explore the...

Anomalous δ18O signal in a giant clam shell (Tridacna maxima) from the Lakshadweep Archipelago, India: signature of thermal stress during a coral bleaching event
A giant clam shell ( Tridacna maxima ) collected from the lagoon of Minicoy Island in the southern Lakshadweep Archipelago, India, was used for a...

Convergence of Bipedal Locomotion: Why Walk or Run on Only Two Legs
The adaptive reason(s) as to why some tetrapods walk or run on only two legs is far from straightforward. Compared to a quadruped, maintaining...

Development of an image classification pipeline for atherosclerotic plaques assessment using supervised machine learning
BackgroundDuring atherosclerosis, the narrowing of the arterial lumen is observed through the accumulation of bio compounds and the formation of...

Repeatability of endocrine traits and dominance rank in female guinea pigs
BackgroundGlucocorticoids (e.g. cortisol) are associated with variation in social behavior, and previous studies have linked baseline as well as...

Unequal stability of different parts in the flag blossom (Leguminosae) with notes on factors affecting variability of pentamerous pentacyclic angiosperm flowers
Angiosperm flowers are subject to spontaneous fluctuations in their structure, so in the same individual plant normal and anomalous flowers may...
