Prebiotics and probiotics in animal nutrition: implications for food safety, sustainability, and circular production systemsNARA Subscribed
The pursuit of sustainable and efficient animal production systems has intensified global interest in microbiota-targeted nutritional strategies. This review synthesizes current research on prebiotics and probiotics, selectively utilized microbial substrates and beneficial live microorganisms, respectively, that confer health benefits, across major livestock and aquaculture sectors, including poultry, swine, ruminants, fish, a...
In-season optical sensor-based variable-rate nitrogen management in maize production: a meta-analysisNARA Subscribed
Purpose In-season optical sensor-based variable-rate nitrogen application (VRA) is designed to optimize nitrogen (N) management in maize (Zea mays L.) by aligning N inputs with real-time crop demand, yet reports on its performance are inconsistent. This study quantified the effects of VRA relative to fixed-rate management on N inputs, yield, N use efficiency, and profit; assessed VRA’s economic response to market volatility; i...
Morphological evolution of the 2021 Tajogaite cone (Cumbre Vieja, La Palma, Spain) between January 2022 and July 2024NARA Subscribed
Volcanic eruptions shape the landscape. While some events may locally cause mass loss (e.g. gravitational failure, explosive excavation, or collapse following magma withdrawal), constructive processes are dominant: volcanic deposits create new land, cover the landscape, and build new cones around vents. The 2021 Tajogaite eruption (La Palma, Spain) produced a cinder cone complex that was initially 187 m taller than the pre-eru...
One Health Genomic Perspective on Pseudescherichia vulneris: A Neglected Reservoir of Last-Resort Resistance GenesNARA Subscribed
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a critical global threat, often driven by horizontal gene transfer mediated by mobile genetic elements (MGEs) such as plasmids, transposons, and integrons. Among Enterobacterales , IncHI2/IncHI2A plasmids are of particular concern, as they combine broad host range, conjugative potential, and mosaic architecture enriched with antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs), biocide tolerance, and heavy-m...
In a rapidly warming Arctic, genetic variation might serve to buffer organisms against the effects of environmental change, such as sea ice loss and ocean warming. Yet, this concept remains largely unexplored because comprehensive genome‐wide studies across the full ranges of Arctic marine taxa are rare. Bowhead whales ( Balaena mysticetus ) have a strong association with sea ice and polar water masses, a long history of human...
Interpretable deep learning reveals spatiotemporal MRI features of brain aging that align with neurodegenerationNARA Subscribed
Cortical thinning and atrophy are hallmarks of brain aging that have been characterized using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Brain aging involves many neuroanatomic features whose effects on brain structure remain unexplored. To address this challenge, we trained interpretable deep neural networks (DNNs) to estimate brain age (BA) from T 1 -weighted ( T 1 w) MRI. By identifying MRI features unapparent to humans, DNNs can fi...
Chilean Blue Whales: Fidelity to Feeding Areas and Migratory Connectivity With the Eastern Tropical Pacific 1NARA Subscribed
In the Eastern South Pacific (ESP), blue whale ( Balaenoptera musculus subsp.) aggregations have been described for two feeding areas (in northern and southern Chile) and in the Eastern Tropical Pacific (ETP). However, despite the knowledge of these areas, little is known about the seasonal movements of blue whales between them. Comparisons of 1074 individual blue whales, photographed across these regions from 1992 to 2019, re...
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) disproportionately affects women and carriers of the apolipoprotein E ε4 allele (APOE4), yet little is known about how sex and APOE interact to influence white matter (WM) integrity during disease progression. We integrated diffusion MRI and matched blood transcriptomic data to investigate these interactions and their underlying biological mechanisms. WM microstructure was quantified using diffusion te...
