On-farm effects of urease and nitrification inhibitors on resource use, soil C and climate impactNARA Subscribed
Efficient nitrogen (N) use in crops is vital for promoting sustainable and profitable agriculture and has significant implications for greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation. While urease (UI) and nitrification inhibitors (NI) are known to influence N transformations, soil N availability, and N utilization efficiency (NUE) in ammonium sulfate urea (AS-HS), their impacts on the carbon (C) and water cycles are less well understood. To...
Purpose Systematic collection and analysis of antimicrobial resistance data from key bacterial pathogens is essential to contribute to control antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The aim of this work was to survey the drug resistance on clinically relevant organisms stratified according to age, gender, clinical specimens and facilities. Methods Microbiological data were collected from 55 centers across 24 states in Mexico between...
Invasive species in the aquarium trade: survey of attitudes, behaviors, and knowledge among US participantsNARA Subscribed
Although the aquarium trade is an important pathway for direct and indirect non-native species introductions into freshwater systems, knowledge and attitudes of participants in the trade regarding alien species issues is largely undocumented. Therefore, we administered a survey to investigate attitudes and behaviors of aquarists and non-aquarists regarding the aquarium trade as a pathway for invasive species introductions. We...
The Missing Global South in Climate Change Biology: Towards Equitable Knowledge Inclusion for Effective Global SolutionsNARA Subscribed
Over the last decades, climate change biology has become a central field in global science, yet knowledge production and its inclusion in global strategies remain profoundly unequal. Our bibliometric analysis of over 580,000 records shows that ~80% of author affiliations come from Global North institutions, meaning that research agendas, theoretical frameworks, and priorities are still largely shaped outside the regions with t...
Motivation Here, we make available a second version of the BioTIME database, which compiles records of abundance estimates for species in sample events of ecological assemblages through time. The updated version expands version 1.0 of the database by doubling the number of studies and includes substantial additional curation to the taxonomic accuracy of the records, as well as the metadata. Moreover, we now provide an R packag...
Coastal ecosystems and human communities are threatened worldwide by climate change, and shocks from social, market and political change. There is an urgent global need to promote resilient food production and livelihoods in the face of these shocks. Small-scale fisheries (SSF) in rural settings can be particularly vulnerable as they frequently lack the resources, rights and infrastructure to respond to shocks originating outs...
Adult cold tolerance and potential North American distribution of Myllocerus undecimpustulatus undatus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)NARA Subscribed
Cold tolerance and potential distribution of Myllocerus undecimpustulatus undatus Marshall, a polyphagous pest in the United States, were investigated. Adult survivorship after 2 days at 0 °C and − 5 °C averaged 60% and 18%, respectively. Four days of exposure resulted in survivorship of 11% at 0 °C and 4% at − 5 °C, respectively. Summer-collected weevils at − 5 °C through repeated cold exposure of 2 h survived 3 times longer...
Treatment with a DC-SIGN ligand reduces macrophage polarization and diastolic dysfunction in the aging female but not male mouse heartsNARA Subscribed
Cardiac diastolic dysfunction in aging arises from increased ventricular stiffness caused by inflammation and interstitial fibrosis. The diastolic dysfunction contributes to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), which in the aging population is more common in women. This report examines its progression over 12 weeks in aging C57BL/6J mice and correlates its development with changes in macrophage polarization...
