Collection, handling and care of cephalopod eggsNARA Subscribed
Research on cephalopod early ontogeny has significantly advanced in recent decades, including embryo organogenesis and neurogenesis and early behavioural adaptations, particularly in commercially important and coastal species. Within this context, here we compiled current knowledge on the collection, handling and care under experimental conditions and monitoring in the field of cephalopod eggs and egg masses. It covers field o...
A practical guide to investigating biomolecular condensates: a comment from the plant communityNARA Subscribed
Biomolecular condensates formed through phase separation have emerged as a central principle of cellular organization, enabling the dynamic regulation of gene expression, signaling, metabolism, and stress responses. While early conceptual advances in condensate biology have largely originated from animal and in vitro systems, plant cells present a unique set of biological and technical challenges, including rigid cell walls, t...
Motivation The database initiated by the Mountain Invasion Research Network (MIREN) is one of the few globally implemented standardized vegetation surveys in mountains. The focus is on collecting plant species occurrences at 5‐year intervals along and adjacent to mountain roads spanning elevational gradients, with the goal of providing critical information about the ongoing spread of non‐native plants and the potential impacts...
Impact of open-air dumping of urban solid waste on soil toxicity and properties in a tropical environmentNARA Subscribed
Open dumping (OD) is uncontrolled dumping of solid waste (SW) in an environment. It involves the illegal practice of dumping waste in areas not designated for waste management, such as open lands, flowing water bodies, or exposed waste piles. OD can contain a complex mixture of organic fractions, and various contaminants that, when infiltrated into the soil through leachate, compromise its stability and resistance. These conta...
The presence of frailty is common in people with Parkinson’s disease (PD), as is cognitive dysfunction. Frailty is a dynamic process that can be reversed, so early detection is essential. The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of a home-based physical therapy program for frail patients with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease and cognitive impairment. An exploratory, pilot, randomized, single-blind ex...
Human‐induced high densities of large wild herbivores may pose a threat to natural ecosystems, modifying biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. Although the negative impacts on individual taxa and processes are well documented, a comprehensive understanding of how ecosystem integrity responds to high herbivore densities remains limited. This study addresses this gap through an extensive herbivore‐density manipulation experime...
The origin of life through prebiotic chemistry and molecular evolution processes is a significant and unresolved issue in science. A key part of this process is how simple molecules, such as amino acids, transition into functional polymers, like peptides, which can store information and facilitate reactions. During this transition, wet-dry cycles and the interaction with ionizing radiation are essential mechanisms for increasi...
Marine megafauna species are affected by a wide range of anthropogenic threats. To evaluate the risk of such threats, species’ vulnerability to each threat must first be determined. We build on the existing threats classification scheme and ranking system of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species by assessing the vulnerability of 256 marine megafauna species to 23 at‐sea threat...
