Natural rubber reduces herbivory and alters the microbiome below ground

This study shows that natural rubber reduces herbivory and alters the root microbiome in a herbivore-dependent manner in Russian dandelion.

Simultaneous Spectral Differentiation of Multiple Fluorophores in Super-resolution Imaging Using a Glass Phase Plate

This paper introduces a method to simultaneously image and distinguish multiple fluorophores in super-resolution microscopy using a phase plate and computational algorithm.

Direct capsid labeling of infectious HIV-1 by genetic code expansion allows detection of largely complete nuclear capsids and suggests nuclear entry of HIV-1 complexes via common routes

This study uses genetic code expansion to label HIV-1 capsid proteins, enabling visualization of complete nuclear capsids and suggesting common nuclear entry routes.

Maturation of the matrix and viral membrane of HIV-1

This study determines the structure of HIV-1 matrix (MA) in immature and mature virions, revealing a hexameric lattice formed during maturation that repurposes the membrane for viral entry.

Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is essential to balance the metabolic demands of four dominant North-Atlantic deepsea sponges

This study shows that dissolved organic carbon (DOC) meets most of the metabolic needs of deep-sea sponges, enabling them to thrive in nutrient-poor environments.

A Uropathogenic E. coli UTI89 model of prostatic inflammation and collagen accumulation for use in studying aberrant collagen production in the prostate

This paper develops a mouse model of prostatic inflammation and collagen accumulation using E. coli UTI89 instillations to study aberrant collagen production in the prostate.

Evidence for a biological source of widespread, reproducible nighttime oxygen spikes in tropical reef ecosystems has implications for coral health

The paper identifies nighttime oxygen spikes in tropical reef ecosystems as a biological phenomenon linked to coral health and calcifying organisms.

Resilience trinity: safeguarding ecosystem services across three different time horizons and decision contexts

The paper introduces a conceptual framework called resilience trinity to manage ecosystem resilience across three decision contexts and time horizons.
