Structural genome variation drives adaptation of the xylose-fermenting yeast Scheffersomyces stipitis to lignocellulosic hydrolysatesNARA Subscribed
Second-generation (2G) bioethanol from lignocellulosic feedstocks is a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels. However, its production is constrained by the poor performance of industrial microbes in hydrolysates that are generated during biomass pretreatment. Scheffersomyces stipitis is a native xylose fermenting yeast and a promising platform for 2G bioethanol production, and adaptive evolution under hydrolysate stress has...
Jaguar Range‐Wide Connectivity: Prioritising Core Areas and Corridors Between and Within Protected Areas and Indigenous LandsNARA Subscribed
Anthropogenic habitat transformation has led to population declines and increasing isolation of populations of many species, particularly top predators, where small and fragmented populations often experience limited dispersal and reduced genetic diversity. Jaguars ( Panthera onca ), for example, have lost half of their historical range and most populations outside the Amazon biome are small, isolated and highly threatened. He...
Predators are known to impact prey populations through both consumptive and nonconsumptive effects, and the magnitude of prey responses has long been assumed to depend on the lethality of the predator. Yet, there are few, if any studies, that have empirically tested this assumption. While there are studies that have approximated lethality and provide support for this assumption, difficulties arise given there is a need to esti...
Seasonal Reef-Scale Variability in Seawater CO₂ Chemistry in the Presence and Absence of Seaweed Cultivation in Onna, Okinawa, JapanNARA Subscribed
Seaweed cultivation has been proposed as an active biogeochemical intervention to elevate seawater pH and create localized refugia from ocean acidification. To date, most studies have relied on autonomous sensors to contrast seawater pH inside and outside of seaweed cultivation plots. These studies provide important temporal observations but lack information about the spatial capacity for seaweed cultivation to provide pH refu...
Purpose Virtual reality (VR) reduces experimental and clinical pain, but whether these effects extend to naturally occurring muscle pain (NOMP) during exercise remains unclear. This study examined whether immersive nature-based VR attenuates NOMP and improves motor performance during prescribed and self-regulated exercise. Methods Two within-participant crossover studies were conducted involving 12 (Study 1) and 24 (Study 2) h...
