Assessment of Salinity Tolerance in Lepeophtheirus salmonis Following Five Generations of Freshwater Treatment SelectionNARA Subscribed
Non‐medicinal approaches for controlling sea lice ( Lepeophtheirus salmonis ) infestations, such as freshwater (FW) treatments, have been increasingly implemented to support more sustainable parasite control in aquaculture. This study evaluated the efficacy of FW treatment against sea lice under controlled experimental conditions and assessed the potential development of resistance across multiple generations. Sea lice populat...
Context matters: emotional responses to urban greening interventions depend on city settingNARA Subscribed
Urban green spaces deliver a remarkable range of human health and well-being benefits, and there is substantial, global effort into incorporating urban greening into the design of cities. However, intense competition for space in cities means small interstitial gaps in the urban fabric are being used for many contemporary green spaces, such as planter boxes or raised garden beds. These small urban greening interventions have b...
Tumour endothelial cell reprogramming orchestrates angiocrine signalling to drive chemoresistance in breast cancerNARA Subscribed
Despite its established role in breast cancer treatment, Doxorubicin treatment remains subject to adaptive resistance mechanisms that extend beyond cancer cell intrinsic alterations ultimately reducing therapy efficacy. Our study in a MMTV-PyMT-driven mouse breast cancer model reveals that prolonged Doxorubicin (Dox) exposure triggers significant reprogramming of the tumour vasculature, substantially altering the angiocrine la...
Expert consensus on passive heating interventions to promote skeletal muscle strength and mass: a delphi studyNARA Subscribed
Purpose Passive heating has emerged as a potential non‑exercise method to support muscle strength and mass, but its application is limited by inconsistent protocols and unclear dosage and safety guidelines. This study used a Delphi methodology to establish expert consensus on key parameters for passive heating interventions targeting neuromuscular and muscle morphology outcomes. Methods An international panel of academic exper...
Modeling of gene regulatory networks: an annotated glossaryNARA Subscribed
High-impact, low-probability (HILP) events, characterised by their extreme consequences and inherent unpredictability, pose a growing challenge to disaster risk reduction in an era of systemic and cascading crises. Traditional risk assessment frameworks, which rely on probability-based models, often fail to capture the full scope of these events, leaving critical vulnerabilities unaddressed. This semi-systematic state-of-the-a...
Conservation (or safe) havens are protected areas where barriers (e.g., fences) separate biodiversity from threatening processes and are being increasingly used to support conservation. Differences between selection pressures inside and outside havens can be anticipated; however, understanding of the evolutionary consequences of these differences is limited, and many changes may be going unnoticed. This hampers assessments of...
Black Death Land Abandonment Drove European Diversity LossesNARA Subscribed
The current prevailing perception is that human impacts on the biological realm have been overwhelmingly negative. Here, we test this narrative by considering the consequences for aspects of floristic diversity of the ‘Black Death era’ (1300–1400 ce ), where one third of Europe's population died within half a decade. Based on evidence from 109 pollen records spanning the Common Era, we find increasing floristic diversity from...
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...
Aim Homogenisation (decreasing beta‐diversity) among biological assemblages is often interpreted as being caused by already‐widespread species increasing. The link between individual species level trends and homogenisation between assemblages, however, has not been fully addressed, with most studies focused solely on either assemblage level or species level changes. Here we aim to test the widely held hypothesis that homogenis...
