Perennial intermediate wheatgrass accumulates more soil organic carbon than annual winter wheat – a model assessment
PurposePerennial crops have been suggested as a more sustainable alternative to the currently most common crop** systems. Compared with annual...

Carbonate compensation depth drives abyssal biogeography in the northeast Pacific
Abyssal seafloor communities cover more than 60% of Earth’s surface. Despite their great size, abyssal plains extend across modest environmental...

Comparing the deep root growth and water uptake of intermediate wheatgrass (Kernza®) to alfalfa
AimsPerennial crops with more extensive and deep root systems could access deep stored water and build resilience to water shortage. In the context...

Invertebrate Richness and Hatching Decrease with Sediment Depth in Neotropical Intermittent Ponds
Some groups of invertebrates from intermittent wetlands produce dormant stages in response to environmental fluctuations. Dormancy is a strategy to...

Origin of current intermediate wheatgrass germplasm being developed for Kernza grain production
Intermediate wheatgrass (IWG, Thinopyrum intermedium [Host] Barkworth & D. R. Dewey) has been developed as a perennial grain crop for human...

eDNA metabarcoding reveals biodiversity and depth stratification patterns of dinoflagellate assemblages within the epipelagic zone of the western Coral Sea
BackgroundDinoflagellates play critical roles in the functioning of marine ecosystems but also may pose a hazard to human and ecosystem health by...

Phycobilisome light-harvesting efficiency in natural populations of the marine cyanobacteria Synechococcus increases with depth
Cyanobacteria of the genus Synechococcus play a key role as primary producers and drivers of the global carbon cycle in temperate and tropical...
-
Chinook salmon depth distributions on the continental shelf are shaped by interactions between location, season, and individual condition
BackgroundEcological and physical conditions vary with depth in aquatic ecosystems, resulting in gradients of habitat suitability. Although variation...

Detailed analysis of distorted retinal and its interaction with surrounding residues in the K intermediate of bacteriorhodopsin
The K intermediate of proton pum** bacteriorhodopsin is the first intermediate generated after isomerization of retinal to the 13- cis form....
-
Differing lesion recovery rates of two Caribbean stony coral species across a shallow water to mesophotic depth gradient suggest different sensitivity to repeated disturbance
Following major stress events such as storms, bleaching events, or disease outbreaks, surviving corals must regenerate tissue to recover. We aimed to...

Does selection occur at the intermediate zone of two insufficiently isolated populations? A whole-genome analysis along an altitudinal gradient
Adaptive divergence occurs even between insufficiently isolated populations when there is a great difference in environments between their habitats....

Ocean depth–temperature profiles for operational oceanography from a shark-borne transmitter
BackgroundMany regions of the ocean are under-sampled in terms of their biology and physical structure. Increasingly sophisticated animal-borne...

Intermediate disturbance hypothesis explains eutrophication and biodiversity pattern in a boreal river basin, China
Eutrophication is a common phenomenon in aquatic ecosystems caused by human disturbance and is regarded as one of the major threats to biodiversity...

Intermediate complex morphophysiological dormancy in seeds of Aconitum barbatum (Ranunculaceae)
BackgroundSeed dormancy and germination are key components of plant regeneration strategies. Aconitum barbatum is a plant commonly found in...

Fish sounds of photic and mesophotic coral reefs: variation with depth and type of island
Mesophotic Coral Ecosystems remain largely unexplored. The aim of this study was to determine how the acoustic fish biodiversity varied depending on...

An atlas of lamina-associated chromatin across twelve human cell types reveals an intermediate chromatin subtype
BackgroundAssociation of chromatin with lamin proteins at the nuclear periphery has emerged as a potential mechanism to coordinate cell type-specific...

Haplotype-resolved assembly of a tetraploid potato genome using long reads and low-depth offspring data
Potato is one of the world’s major staple crops, and like many important crop plants, it has a polyploid genome. Polyploid haplotype assembly poses a...

Mesophotic zone as refuge: acclimation and in-depth proteomic response of yellow gorgonians in the Mediterranean sea
The intensification of warming-induced mass-mortalities in invertebrate populations including in temperate regions is a critical global issue....

Moment estimators of relatedness from low-depth whole-genome sequencing data
BackgroundEstimating relatedness is an important step for many genetic study designs. A variety of methods for estimating coefficients of pairwise...

Drones and Bathymetry Show the Importance of Optimal Water Depth for Nest Placement Within Breeding Colonies of Western and Clark’s Grebes
Habitat selection involves a series of decisions that are arguably the most important decisions that animals make and these decisions occur at...
