In memoriam Finn Larsen 1953–2024NARA Subscribed
Mother vaginal microbes contribute to microbiome of vaginally delivered neonates. Child microbiome can be associated with autoimmune diseases, such as type 1 diabetes (T1D). We collected vaginal DNA samples from 25 mothers with a vaginally delivered child diagnosed with T1D and samples from 24 control mothers who had vaginally delivered a healthy child and analyzed bacteriome and mycobiome of the samples. The total DNA of the...
Global warming is affecting the population dynamics and trophic interactions across a wide range of ecosystems and habitats. Translating these real‐time effects into their long‐term consequences remains a challenge. The rapid and extreme warming period that occurred after the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) during the Pleistocene–Holocene transition (7–12 thousand years ago) provides an opportunity to gain insights into the long‐te...
Eurasian perch Perca fluviatilis growth and fish community structure, inside and outside a marine‐protected area in the Baltic SeaNARA Subscribed
Growth of Eurasian perch Perca fluviatilis L. and fish community structure between sites within a marine‐protected area ( MPA ) and unprotected sites in the Baltic Sea were examined. Von Bertalanffy, logistic and Gompertz growth models were fitted to P. fluviatilis length at age data, and the logistic model was the most parsimonious for growth between locations. A larger mean maximum size ( L ∞ ) and a smaller instantaneous gr...
Summary The honey bee, the world's most important agricultural pollinator, relies exclusively on plant‐derived foods for nutrition. Nectar and pollen collected by honey bees are processed and matured within the nest through the activities of honey bee‐derived microbes and enzymes. In order to better understand the contribution of the microbial community to food processing in the honey bee, we generated a metatranscriptome of t...
Humpback whale abundance in the North Pacific estimated by photographic capture‐recapture with bias correction from simulation studiesNARA Subscribed
We estimated the abundance of humpback whales in the North Pacific by capture‐recapture methods using over 18,000 fluke identification photographs collected in 2004–2006. Our best estimate of abundance was 21,808 (CV = 0.04). We estimated the biases in this value using a simulation model. Births and deaths, which violate the assumption of a closed population, resulted in a bias of +5.2%, exclusion of calves in samples resulted...
