Saliva plays a crucial role in oral defense across mammals by combining host-derived antimicrobial factors with antagonistic indigenous microbiota. Understanding the composition of the oral lactic microbiota in wild canids may provide valuable insights into microbial ecology and animal health. In this study, Lactobacillus and Enterococcus spp. isolated from the saliva of South American bush dogs ( Speothos venaticus ) and mane...
The cave of Les Pradelles (Marillac‐le‐Franc, France) was repeatedly visited by Neandertals ~55 000 years ago and is a key site in discussions of Neandertal cannibalism. Excavations between 1967 and 1980 (Vandermeersch) and between 2001 and 2013 (Maureille/Mann) produced a rich faunal assemblage (>20 000 bones), alongside Quina Mousterian tools. Here, we provide a combined study of both collections integrating ZooMS (Zooarchae...
Habitat Selection and Population Density of Diurnal and Nocturnal Lemurs in the Anjozorobe-Angavo Protected Area, MadagascarNARA Subscribed
Primates are among the most threatened mammals globally owing to rapid habitat loss and intense hunting pressure. Among these, lemurs are the taxon with the highest number of species at risk of extinction. Although many lemur species have been surveyed extensively across Madagascar, some taxa and protected areas remain understudied. The Anjozorobe-Angavo Protected Area, a rainforest landscape in the highlands of central-easter...
Advancing provitamin A biofortification in sorghum: from allele mining and marker development to prebreeding and breedingNARA Subscribed
Key message Allele mining for provitamin A biofortification in sorghum is advanced with new pre-bred germplasm and markers that are trait-predictive in diverse germplasm and breeding programs. Abstract Provitamin A biofortification of the staple cereal crop sorghum ( Sorghum bicolor [L.] Moench) could reduce vitamin A deficiency in low-income countries of sub-Saharan Africa. To advance mining of alleles that confer high provit...
Open Questions on Ion–Neutral Collisions and Coupling in the Lower Thermosphere–Ionosphere: Electrodynamics, Energetics and DynamicsNARA Subscribed
The Lower Thermosphere–Ionosphere (LTI) is the interface region between the Earth’s atmosphere and space. It is modulated by the energy and momentum deposition from the magnetosphere above and by the impacting waves from the lower atmosphere. The LTI region is defined by the co-existence and interaction of neutral and ionized species within the region’s electric and magnetic fields. This interplay results in unique and complex...
The Juan Fernández Archipelago (JFA), located approximately 700 km off the Chilean coast, is of great scientific importance for its unique ecosystem and numerous endemic species. Designated a World Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 1977, it comprises three islands: Alejandro Selkirk (AS), Robinson Crusoe (RC) and Santa Clara (SC). Using satellite images of clouds, we identified and examined Von Kármán atmospheric vortex streets (...
