Tapping Culture Collections for Fungal Endophytes: First Genome Assemblies for Three Genera and Five Species in the Ascomycota
(Oxford University Press, 2023-03-07)The Ascomycota form the largest phylum in the fungal kingdom and show a wide diversity of lifestyles, some involving associations with plants. Genomic data are available for many ascomycetes that are pathogenic to plants, ... -
Targeted molecular profiling of rare olfactory sensory neurons identifies fate, wiring, and functional determinants
(eLife Sciences Publications, 2021-03-05)Determining the molecular properties of neurons is essential to understand their development, function and evolution. Using Targeted DamID (TaDa), we characterize RNA polymerase II occupancy and chromatin accessibility in ... -
Targeting Ascomycota genomes: what and how big?
(Elsevier, 2021-04-01)Gap analysis of the available genomic data (i.e. identifying taxonomic groups with no representative genome assemblies) is a fundamental first step to design effective sampling strategies for whole genome sequencing (WGS) ... -
Targeting the substrate preference of a type I nitroreductase to develop antitrypanosomal quinone-based prodrugs.
(2012-11)Nitroheterocyclic prodrugs are used to treat infections caused by Trypanosoma cruzi and Trypanosoma brucei. A key component in selectivity involves a specific activation step mediated by a protein homologous with type I ... -
A taxonomic revision of Noripterus complicidens (Young, 1973) and Asian members of Dsungaripteridae.
After being inaccessible for a number of years, the holotype and other specimens of the dsungaripterid pterodactyloid pterosaur Noripterus complicidens (Young, 1973) are again available for study. Numerous taxa assigned ... -
Teaching and learning in ecology: a horizon scan of emerging challenges and solutions
(Wiley, 2020-09)We currently face significant, anthropogenic, global environmental challenges and the role of ecologists in mitigating these challenges is arguably more important than ever. Consequently there is an urgent need to recruit ... -
Temperature-dependence of minimum resource requirements alters competitive hierarchies in phytoplankton
(Nordic Ecological Society, 2019)Resource competition theory is a conceptual framework that provides mechanistic insights into competition and community assembly of species with different resource requirements. However, there has been little exploration ... -
Temperature-size responses match latitudinal-size clines in arthropods, revealing critical differences between aquatic and terrestrial species.
(Wiley Online, 2015-02-15)Two major intraspecific patterns of adult size variation are plastic temperature-size (T-S) responses and latitude-size (L-S) clines. Yet, the degree to which these co-vary and share explanatory mechanisms has not been ...
