Despite extensive research on the western Pacific crown-of-thorns starfish (CoTS; Acanthaster cf. solaris ), especially from Australia’s Great Barrier Reef (GBR), there are persistent knowledge gaps that constrain understanding and management. Given renewed population irruptions of CoTS on the GBR, alongside escalating climate impacts and direct anthropogenic pressures, a quantitative assessment of knowledge gaps was undertake...

New parajeilongviruses detected in bats but not in humans: assays for screening and diagnostic purposesNARA Subscribed
To enhance preparedness against existing and new zoonotic viruses such as Hendra virus, Nipah virus, and other paramyxoviruses, screening tools and efficient diagnostic methods are needed. Here, we established a conventional nested pan-PCR assay using previously described primers for screening of human and bat samples. Additionally, we developed specific real-time RT-PCR (RT-qPCR) assays to detect Nipah virus and Hendra virus...
Belowground traits of perennial grasses shape restoration strategies in tropical grasslandsNARA Subscribed
Background and Aims Multiple biotic and abiotic stressors increasingly threaten tropical grasslands, yet restoration efforts predominantly prioritise aboveground traits, neglecting critical belowground traits essential for ecosystem resilience and recovery. We proposed that these neglected traits shape ecosystem biodiversity, productivity, and stress tolerance. This study assessed biomass yield, root and rhizosphere traits, re...
A comparison of the 2023/24 El Niño with other El Niño events during 1981—2024 over the Okavango River Basin, southern AfricaNARA Subscribed
The early 2024 drought in southern Africa, which was worsened by an El Niño, caused serious grain shortages in the region. We analyse rainfall and circulation anomalies for the 2023/24 El Niño and compare them with those for the other El Niño events during 1981–2024 over the Okavango River Basin (ORB), southern Africa. Attention is also paid to the north catchment of the ORB and to Ngamiland district in northwestern Botswana,...
Age-related alterations of angiogenesis, inflammation and bone microarchitecture during fracture healing in miceNARA Subscribed
The surgical treatment of geriatric patients represents a major challenge in traumatology. It is well known that aging affects fracture healing. However, the exact pathophysiology of age-related changes in angiogenesis, inflammation and bone remodeling remains still elusive. Therefore, we herein studied the differences of femoral fracture healing in young adult (3–4 months) and aged (16–18 months) CD-1 mice by using a stable c...
