Wastewater-based epidemiology of norovirus in Israel, 2022NARA Subscribed
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...
Aim The urgency for remote, reliable and scalable biodiversity monitoring amidst mounting human pressures on ecosystems has sparked worldwide interest in Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM), which can track life underwater and on land. However, we lack a unified methodology to report this sampling effort and a comprehensive overview of PAM coverage to gauge its potential as a global research and monitoring tool. To address this...
Meta genetic analysis of melon sweetnessNARA Subscribed
Key message Through meta-genetic analysis of Cucumis melo sweetness, we expand the description of the complex genetic architecture of this trait. Integration of extensive new results with published QTL data provides an outline towards construction of a melon sweetness pan-QTLome. Abstract An ultimate objective in crop genetics is describing the complete repertoire of genes and alleles that shape the phenotypic variation of a q...
Migratory Birds Advance Spring Arrival and Egg‐Laying in the Arctic, Mostly by Travelling FasterNARA Subscribed
In the current warming climate, many organisms in seasonal environments advance their timing of reproduction to benefit from resource peaks earlier in spring. For migrants, the potential to advance reproduction may be constrained by their migration strategies, notably their ability to advance arrival at the breeding grounds. Recent studies show various changes in migration strategies, including wintering closer to the breeding...
Standardized reporting of the costs of management interventions for biodiversity conservationNARA Subscribed
Effective conservation management interventions must combat threats and deliver benefits at costs that can be achieved within limited budgets. Considerable effort has focused on measuring the potential benefits of conservation interventions, but explicit quantification of the financial costs of implementation is rare. Even when costs have been quantified, haphazard and inconsistent reporting means published values are difficul...
Detection of tilapia lake virus (Ti LV ) infection by PCR in farmed and wild Nile tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus ) from Lake VictoriaNARA Subscribed
Tilapia lake virus disease (Ti LVD ) has emerged to be an important viral disease of farmed Nile tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus ) having the potential to impede expansion of aquaculture production. There is a need for rapid diagnostic tools to identify infected fish to limit the spread in individual farms. We report the first detection of Ti LV infection by PCR in farmed and wild Nile tilapia from Lake Victoria. There was no...
