Counting with DNA in metabarcoding studies: How should we convert sequence reads to dietary data?
(2019-01)
Advances in DNA sequencing technology have revolutionized the field of molecular analysis of trophic interactions, and it is now possible to recover counts of food DNA sequences from a wide range of dietary samples. But ...
Factors affecting consumers' adherence to gluten-free diet, a systematic review
(Elsevier, 2019-03-01)
Background: The gluten-free market is expanding rapidly. The reasons for this reflect a growing interest in adopting a gluten-free diet (GFD). This is partly explained by an increasing number of people diagnosed with Celiac ...
Automated Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging High-Content Analysis of Förster Resonance Energy Transfer between Endogenously Labeled Kinetochore Proteins in Live Budding Yeast Cells.
(SAGE, 2019-01-10)
We describe an open-source automated multiwell plate fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) methodology to read out Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) between fluorescent proteins (FPs) labeling endogenous kinetochore ...
Sensory Processing Sensitivity in the context of Environmental Sensitivity: A critical review and development of research agenda.
(2019-03)
Sensory Processing Sensitivity (SPS) is a common, heritable and evolutionarily conserved trait describing inter-individual differences in sensitivity to both negative and positive environments. Despite societal interest ...
Rapid morphological evolution in placental mammals post-dates the origin of the crown group.
(The Royal Society, 2019-03-13)
Resolving the timing and pattern of early placental mammal evolution has been confounded by conflict among divergence date estimates from interpretation of the fossil record and from molecular-clock dating studies. Despite ...
DNA metabarcoding reveals changes in the contents of carnivorous plants along an elevation gradient
(Wiley, 2019-01)
Resource variation along abiotic gradients influences subsequent trophic interactions and these effects can be transmitted through entire food webs. Interactions along abiotic gradients can provide clues as to how organisms ...
Distinguishing differential susceptibility, diathesis-stress, and vantage sensitivity: Beyond the single gene and environment model.
(Cambridge University Press, 2019-01-10)
Currently, two main approaches exist to distinguish differential susceptibility from diathesis-stress and vantage sensitivity in Genotype × Environment interaction (G × E) research: regions of significance (RoS) and ...
Covalently Crosslinked Nanogels: An NMR Study of the Effect of Monomer Reactivity on Composition and Structure
(MDPI, 2019-02)
Covalently crosslinked nanogels are widely explored as drug delivery systems and sensors. Radical polymerization provides a simple, inexpensive, and broadly applicable approach for their preparation, although the random ...
Land use alters trophic redundancy and resource flow through stream food webs.
(2019-02-03)
The changes to physical and chemical ecosystem characteristics as a response to pervasive and intensifying land use have the potential to alter the consumer-resource interactions and to rewire the flow of energy through ...
