Polymyxins remain indispensable last-line antibiotics for multidrug-resistant Gram-negative infections, yet their clinical use in central nervous system (CNS) infections is constrained by poorly understood neurotoxicity. Here, we define the early molecular signalling events underlying polymyxin B-induced CNS toxicity using an integrated phosphoproteomic and Reverse Phase Protein Array (RPPA) approach in rat brain following int...
Mechanisms and models for industry engagement in collaborative research in commercial fisheriesOA Marine
Data and insights from fishers are essential sources of information to advance understanding of fishery and ecosystem dynamics. Incorporating fisher and industry knowledge holds prospects for improving marine science and fisheries management. We address cooperative research in the context of collaboration between fishers, scientists, industries, universities, and agencies to develop applied research to understand marine ecosys...
The global abundance of tree palmsNARA Subscribed
Aim Palms are an iconic, diverse and often abundant component of tropical ecosystems that provide many ecosystem services. Being monocots, tree palms are evolutionarily, morphologically and physiologically distinct from other trees, and these differences have important consequences for ecosystem services (e.g., carbon sequestration and storage) and in terms of responses to climate change. We quantified global patterns of tree...
Fisheries and aquaculture production, imports, exports and equitability of distribution determine the supply of aquatic food to people. Aquatic food security is achieved when a food supply is sufficient, safe, sustainable, shockproof and sound: sufficient, to meet needs and preferences of people; safe, to provide nutritional benefit while posing minimal health risks; sustainable, to provide food now and for future generations;...
Drought‐induced shifts in the floristic and functional composition of tropical forests in GhanaNARA Subscribed
The future of tropical forests under global environmental change is uncertain, with biodiversity and carbon stocks at risk if precipitation regimes alter. Here, we assess changes in plant functional composition and biomass in 19 plots from a variety of forest types during two decades of long‐term drought in Ghana. We find a consistent increase in dry forest, deciduous, canopy species with intermediate light demand and a concom...
Silviculture and Forest EcologyNARA Subscribed
2Over the past several decades, federal incentive programs have encouraged the restoration of bottomland forests throughout the West Gulf Coastal Plain (WGCP) and the Lower Mississippi Alluvial Valley (LMAV). Programs such as the Conservation Reserve (CRP) and Wetlands Reserve (WRP) Programs have been marginally successful (Stanturf et al. 2001). Foresters and contractors often follow conventional tree planting procedures that...
