Fine-scale substrate heterogeneity does not affect arthropod communities on green roofs.

PeerJ

Schindler BY, Vasl A, Blaustein L, Gurevich D, Kadas GJ, Seifan M.
PMID: 30918748
PeerJ. 2019 Mar 19;7:e6445. doi: 10.7717/peerj.6445. eCollection 2019.

Green roofs, which are roofs with growing substrate and vegetation, can provide habitat for arthropods in cities. Maintaining a diversity of arthropods in an urban environment can enhance the functions they fill, such as pest control and soil development....

Emerging infectious diseases are one of the multiple factors contributing to the current "biodiversity crisis". As part of the worldwide biodiversity crisis, amphibian populations are declining globally. Chytridiomycosis, an emerging infectious disease, caused by the fungal pathogen

RNA catalysis, thermodynamics and the origin of life.

The RNA World Hypothesis posits that the first self-replicating molecules were RNAs. RNA self-replicases are, in general, assumed to have employed nucleotide 5'-polyphosphates (or their analogues) as substrates for RNA polymerization. The mechanism by which these substrates might be...

Pubertal immune challenge suppresses the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis in male and female mice.

Brain research bulletin

Kisspeptin is a neuropeptide responsible for propagating the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis and initiating puberty. Pubertal exposure to an immune challenge causes enduring sexual behavior dysfunction in males and females, but the mechanism underlying this stress-induced sexual dysfunction remains unknown....

Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) represents one of the key regulators of the homeostasis of lipid particles, including high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles. Epidemiological evidence correlates increased HDL and decreased LDL to coronary heart disease (CHD)...

Host species composition influences infection severity among amphibians in the absence of spillover transmission.

Wildlife epidemiological outcomes can depend strongly on the composition of an ecological community, particularly when multiple host species are affected by the same pathogen. However, the relationship between host species richness and disease risk can vary with community context...

Effects of nutrient supplementation on host-pathogen dynamics of the amphibian chytrid fungus: a community approach.

Anthropogenic stressors may influence hosts and their pathogens directly or may alter host-pathogen dynamics indirectly through interactions with other species. For example, in aquatic ecosystems, eutrophication may be associated with increased or decreased disease risk. Conversely, pathogens can influence...

Rana cascadae tadpoles aggregate with siblings: an experimental field study.

Previous laboratory studies have shown that Rana cascadae larvae preferentially associated with siblings over non-siblings in choice tests. This study, conducted during three consecutive summers, tests the hypothesis that R. cascadae larvae aggregate nonrandomly with respect to sibship in...
