Experimental evidence that competition strength scales with ecological similarity: a case study using Anolis lizards
Interspecific competition is widely considered a powerful process underlying species coexistence and ecological community structure. Although...

Optimal Designs in Plant Breeding Experiments: A Simulation Study Comparing Grid-Plot and Partially Replicated (p-Rep) Design
In studies on plant genetic improvement, it is common to use multi-environmental tests that aim to evaluate and select different lines under...

Determining Optimal Plot Size Using Saturation and Unsaturation Curves in the Western Taurus Area of the Mediterranean Region, Turkey
Abstract —This study was performed to decide the optimum sampling area by estimating minimum sampling areas (MSAs) in the Sarıkaya Wildlife Reserve...

Partner choice, confounding and trait convergence all contribute to phenotypic partner similarity
Partners are often similar in terms of their physical and behavioural traits, such as their education, political affiliation and height. However, it...

Environmental Flow Increases The Riparian Vegetation Diversity And Community Similarity
Environmental flow is increasingly used in restoring degraded riparian vegetation. To assess the impact of environmental flow on plant community...

Signatures of T cell immunity revealed using sequence similarity with TCRDivER algorithm
Changes in the T cell receptor (TCR) repertoires have become important markers for monitoring disease or therapy progression. With the rise of...

Landscape connection and patch complexity explain plant community similarity in sandy grasslands better than habitat amount and landscape heterogeneity via network analysis
Based on the island biogeography theory and the habitat amount hypothesis, species richness and alpha diversity increase with an increase in...

Selection dictates the distance pattern of similarity in trees and soil fungi across forest ecosystems
How the four major processes affecting community assembly—selection, dispersal, drift, and diversification—solely or jointly shape co-occurring...

Improved biomarker discovery through a plot twist in transcriptomic data analysis
BackgroundTranscriptomic analysis is crucial for understanding the functional elements of the genome, with the classic method consisting of screening...

Age-related decrease in inter-subject similarity of cortical morphology and task and resting-state functional connectivity
“All old people are the same” is an unfortunate characterization of the perceived homogeneity in the older age group. This study attempts to debunk...
-
Multilayer networks of plasmid genetic similarity reveal potential pathways of gene transmission
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a significant threat to public health. Plasmids are principal vectors of AMR genes, significantly contributing to...

Identification of levoglucosan degradation pathways in bacteria and sequence similarity network analysis
Levoglucosan is produced in the pyrolysis of cellulose and starch, including from bushfires or the burning of biofuels, and is deposited from the...

Bee and plant traits drive temporal similarity of pollination interactions in areas under distinct restoration strategies
One of the ways to evaluate the success of restoration strategies in degraded areas, in terms of restoring pollination, key process for the...

Similarity between soil seed bank and standing vegetation and their relationship with soil and topographical characteristics in a riparian zone
Our objectives were to examine the species composition and diversity of soil seed bank (SSB) and standing vegetation (SV), explore association...

CaSSiDI: novel single-cell “Cluster Similarity Scoring and Distinction Index” reveals critical functions for PirB and context-dependent Cebpb repression
PirB is an inhibitory cell surface receptor particularly prominent on myeloid cells. PirB curtails the phenotypes of activated macrophages during...

Vocal similarity and differences in four species of the genus Anthus: acoustic feature analysis of some common calls
Birds of the same genus often share similar call repertoires; the aim of this paper is to find species-specific and common acoustic features across...
