Numerous studies have revealed the importance of research on the communities capable of colonizing animal surfaces (epibionts) and the animals on which they live (basibionts). Very few studies have considered epizoic diatoms, and there are ...

Biotic resistance, the reduction in invasion success caused by native communities, plays an important role in the long-term dynamics of biological invasions. A large body of empirical research on biotic resistance has accumulated since the ...

Animal survival in the wild is largely dependent on their ability to locate food sources, find mates, and avoid predators - tasks which are all heavily reliant on their sense of smell. However, to be adept at these behaviours, animals must ...
The physiological effects of APOE genotype in healthy young/middle-aged individuals [0.03%]

The apolipoprotein E ε4 (APOE4) allele is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and for multiple neurodegenerative diseases, most notably Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, in healthy infants to adults, the encoded apolipoprotein E prot...

Insects are the most abundant and ecologically important animal migrants. Yet, we know relatively little about the patterns and processes underlying insect migration. Dragonflies (Anisoptera) and damselflies (Zygoptera) comprise the ancient...
