Isotopic evidence that aestivation allows malaria mosquitoes to persist through the dry season in the Sahel [0.03%]
同位素证据表明雨季前的夏眠可使疟疾蚊虫在萨赫勒地区干燥季节存活下来

Data suggest that the malaria vector mosquito Anopheles coluzzii persists during the dry season in the Sahel through a dormancy mechanism known as aestivation; however, the contribution of aestivation compared with alternative strategies su...
Coupled abiotic-biotic cycling of nitrous oxide in tropical peatlands [0.03%]
热带泥炭地中的氧化亚氮生物地球化学循环及其耦合机制研究

Atmospheric nitrous oxide (N2O) is a potent greenhouse gas thought to be mainly derived from microbial metabolism as part of the denitrification pathway. Here we report that in unexplored peat soils of Central and South America, N2O product...
Industrial energy development decouples ungulate migration from the green wave [0.03%]
工业能源发展使有蹄类动物迁徙脱离绿色波峰理论分布区域

The ability to freely move across the landscape to track the emergence of nutritious spring green-up (termed 'green-wave surfing') is key to the foraging strategy of migratory ungulates. Across the vast landscapes traversed by many migrator...

The sustainability of coral reef fisheries is jeopardized by complex and interacting socio-ecological stressors that undermine their contribution to food and nutrition security. Climate change has emerged as one of the key stressors threate...
Fish community structure and dynamics are insufficient to mediate coral resilience [0.03%]
鱼类群落结构和动态不足以介导珊瑚的恢复力

Coral reefs are being impacted by myriad stressors leading to drastic changes to their structure and function. Fishes play essential roles in driving ecosystem processes on coral reefs but the extent to which these processes are emergent at...
Canalized gene expression during development mediates caste differentiation in ants [0.03%]
发育过程中的可塑性基因表达介导了蚂蚁的品级分化
Bitao Qiu,Xueqin Dai,Panyi Li et al.
Bitao Qiu et al.
Ant colonies are higher-level organisms consisting of specialized reproductive and non-reproductive individuals that differentiate early in development, similar to germ-soma segregation in bilateral Metazoa. Analogous to diverging cell line...
Divergent evolutionary trajectories of bryophytes and tracheophytes from a complex common ancestor of land plants [0.03%]
地钱和维管植物的分歧进化轨迹起源于复杂的共同陆地祖先植物

Brogan J Harris et al.
The origin of plants and their colonization of land fundamentally transformed the terrestrial environment. Here we elucidate the basis of this formative episode in Earth history through patterns of lineage, gene and genome evolution. We use...
The structure of genotype-phenotype maps makes fitness landscapes navigable [0.03%]
基因型表型映射的结构使适应度地形图可被探索

Fitness landscapes are often described in terms of 'peaks' and 'valleys', indicating an intuitive low-dimensional landscape of the kind encountered in everyday experience. The space of genotypes, however, is extremely high dimensional, whic...
