Christoph von Beeren et al.
Background: Ant colonies are plagued by a diversity of arthropod guests, which adopt various strategies to avoid or to withstand host attacks. Chemical mimicry of host recognition cues is, for example, a common integratio...
Plasma oxidative stress in reproduction of two eusocial African mole-rat species, the naked mole-rat and the Damaraland mole-rat [0.03%]
两种非洲食虫鼠的繁殖中的血浆氧化应激：裸鼢鼠和达马拉兰鼢鼠

One of the most prominent life-history trade-offs involves the cost of reproduction. Oxidative stress has been proposed to be involved in this trade-off and has been associated with reduced life span. There is currently an unclear relations...
Myogenesis of Siboglinum fiordicum sheds light on body regionalisation in beard worms (Siboglinidae, Annelida) [0.03%]
Siboglinum fiordicum的肌源性发展为胡子虫（Siboglinidae，Annelida）的身体区域化提供了启示
Nadezhda Rimskaya-Korsakova,Nadezda Karaseva,Timofei Pimenov et al.
Nadezhda Rimskaya-Korsakova et al.
Background: Many annelids, including well-studied species such as Platynereis, show similar structured segments along their body axis (homonomous segmentation). However, numerous annelid species diverge from this pattern ...
Interspecific attraction between ground-nesting songbirds and ants: the role of nest-site selection [0.03%]
地面筑巢鸣鸟和蚂蚁之间的种间吸引：巢穴选址的作用
Marta Maziarz,Richard K Broughton,Luca Pietro Casacci et al.
Marta Maziarz et al.
Background: Interspecific interactions within ecological networks can influence animal fitness and behaviour, including nest-site selection of birds and ants. Previous studies revealed that nesting birds and ants may bene...
Mitonuclear mismatch alters nuclear gene expression in naturally introgressed Rhinolophus bats [0.03%]
线粒体核基因不匹配改变在自然杂交岛菊头蝙蝠中的表达
Yuting Ding,Wenli Chen,Qianqian Li et al.
Yuting Ding et al.
Background: Mitochondrial function involves the interplay between mitochondrial and nuclear genomes. Such mitonuclear interactions can be disrupted by the introgression of mitochondrial DNA between taxa or divergent popul...
Metabolic responses of plasma to extreme environments in overwintering Tibetan frogs Nanorana parkeri: a metabolome integrated analysis [0.03%]
极端环境下降河蛙(Nanorana parkeri)越冬期间血浆代谢响应的整合组学分析
Yonggang Niu,Xuejing Zhang,Haiying Zhang et al.
Yonggang Niu et al.
Many animals lower their metabolic rate in response to low temperatures and scarcity of food in the winter in phenomena called hibernation or overwintering. Living at high altitude on the Tibetan Plateau where winters are very cold, the fro...
Life history traits and reproductive ecology of North American chorus frogs of the genus Pseudacris (Hylidae) [0.03%]
北美洲拟裸背蟾属（树蛙科）的生态学和生活史特征
Jeffrey P Ethier,Aurore Fayard,Peter Soroye et al.
Jeffrey P Ethier et al.
Amphibian biodiversity is declining globally, with over 40% of species being considered threatened to become extinct. Crucial to the success of conservation initiatives are a comprehensive understanding of life history and reproductive ecol...
First characterization of toxic alkaloids and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the cryptic dendrobatid Silverstoneia punctiventris [0.03%]
隐生树蛙银石树蛙(Silverstoneia punctiventris)有毒生物碱和挥发性有机化合物(VOCs)的首次特征研究
Mabel Gonzalez,Pablo Palacios-Rodriguez,Jack Hernandez-Restrepo et al.
Mabel Gonzalez et al.
Background: Poison frogs are known for the outstanding diversity of alkaloid-based chemical defences with promising therapeutic applications. However, current knowledge about chemical defences in Dendrobatoidea superfamil...
Natural variation in yolk fatty acids, but not androgens, predicts offspring fitness in a wild bird [0.03%]
卵黄脂肪酸的自然变异而非雄性激素预测野生鸟类后代的适应度
Lucia Mentesana,Martin N Andersson,Stefania Casagrande et al.
Lucia Mentesana et al.
Background: In egg-laying animals, mothers can influence the developmental environment and thus the phenotype of their offspring by secreting various substances into the egg yolk. In birds, recent studies have demonstrate...
Noise constrains the evolution of call frequency contours in flowing water frogs: a comparative analysis in two clades [0.03%]
噪声制约了两种流溪蛙类叫声频率轮廓的演化：两类流溪蛙的比较分析
