Marine phytoplankton and heterotrophic bacteria rapidly adapt to future pCO2 conditions in experimental co-cultures

This study shows marine phytoplankton and heterotrophic bacteria adapt to future CO2 levels in co-cultures, with cyanobacteria showing increased growth and Alteromonas evolving metabolic shifts.

How many specimens make a sufficient training set for automated 3D feature extraction?

This study determines the minimum number of training images needed for accurate 3D feature extraction using deep learning and evaluates the effectiveness of data augmentation.

Neither Williston nor Dollo: mandibular complexity from stem tetrapods to modern amphibians

This study examines evolutionary trends in tetrapod mandibles, finding that neither Willistons law of simplification nor Dollos law of irreversibility holds, as jaw complexity and component gains/losses are not consistently decreasing or irreversible.

Structure of puromycin-sensitive aminopeptidase and polyglutamine binding

The paper reports the crystal structure of puromycin-sensitive aminopeptidase and describes its interaction with polyglutamine.

Ecological and life history drivers of avian skull evolution

This study investigates how ecological and life history factors influence avian skull evolution, finding significant relationships with habitat density and migration but not developmental mode.

How to tuna fish: constraint, convergence and integration in the neurocranium of pelagiarian fishes.

This study examines the morphological evolution of the neurocranium in pelagiarian fishes, finding convergence and integration despite high shape disparity.

Testing heterochrony: Connecting skull shape ontogeny and evolution of feeding adaptations in baleen whales

This study quantifies skull shape ontogeny in baleen whales to test heterochronic processes in their evolution of feeding adaptations.

The ontogeny of asymmetry in echolocating whales

This study investigates the ontogeny of skull asymmetry in echolocating whales, finding that developmental shifts lead to convergent high asymmetry despite phylogenetic differences.

Immunomodulatory effect of mycobacterial outer membrane vesicles coated nanoparticles

This study develops OMV-AuNP as a stabilized TB vaccine candidate showing enhanced immune activation through TLR2 and TLR4.

Heavy metal pollution impacts soil bacterial community structure and antimicrobial resistance at the Birmingham 35th Avenue Superfund Site

This study examines how heavy metal pollution affects soil bacterial communities and antimicrobial resistance at a Superfund site, finding reduced diversity and increased AMR gene prevalence in contaminated soils.

Cationic inhalable particles for enhanced drug delivery to M. tuberculosis infected macrophages

This study shows cationic inhalable microparticles enhance drug delivery to Mtb-infected macrophages, improving anti-bacterial function and uptake in vitro and in mice lungs.

Leishmania Hijacks microRNA Import-Export Machinery of Infected Macrophage and Survives by Cross-Communicating Host miR-146a to Subjugate HuR and miR-122 in Neighbouring cells

This study shows Leishmania manipulates host miRNA transport to suppress inflammation and promote its survival by exporting miR-146a and inhibiting miR-122 in neighboring cells.

Testing hypotheses of marsupial brain size variation using phylogenetic multiple imputations and a Bayesian comparative framework

This study uses Bayesian phylogenetic analysis to test brain size variation in marsupials, finding litter size as the only significant predictor.

Bayesian Estimation of Species Divergence Times Using Correlated Quantitative Characters

This paper introduces a Bayesian method to estimate species divergence times using quantitative morphological characters and shows that ignoring population variation and character correlation leads to biased estimates.
