Concordant Signal of Genetic Variation Across Marker Densities in the Desert Annual Chylismia brevipes Is Linked With Timing of Winter Precipitation by Daniel F. Shryock, Nila Lê, Lesley A. DeFalco, Todd C. Esque

“…Paired with our finding that habitat resistance best explained genetic divergence, our results suggest that isolation of populations within environmentally similar habitats—and subsequent local adaption along gradients parallel to these habitats—drive genome‐wide divergence in this species. …”

Context-invariant socioemotional encoding by prefrontal ensembles by Nicholas A. Frost, Kevin C. Donohue, Damhyeon Kwak, Vikaas S. Sohal

“…This shows how the ventromedial prefrontal cortex multiplexes parallel information streams using overlapping ensembles rather than transmitting information through largely distinct populations, thereby achieving context-invariant encoding alongside the context-specific reorganization of population-level activity.…”

Improving the production of baculovirus expression vector by overexpression of IE0/IE1 through tandem promoter. by Sijun He, Weining Li, Ruirui Zhang, Hao Nan, Wangcheng Song, Xiaodong Xu

“…The research outcomes demonstrate that the expression of exogenous proteins is notably enhanced without the homologous regions sequence for enhancement. In parallel, they still indicate that the upregulation of IE0/IE1 not only boosts viral titers but also enhances apoptosis within cellular populations. …”

Influence of 50-Hz Electromagnetic Field on Anurian (Xenopus laevis) Metamorphosis by S. Grimaldi, A. Lisi, S. Reiti, V. Manni, M. Ledda, L. Giuliani

“…In this study, we show the effect of a 1-mT magnetic field AC at 50 Hz on Xenopus laevis tadpole populations. In the course of a 65-day exposure to the field, tadpole survival showed a small, but significant, decrease (p < 0.0004), together with a striking parallel 6-day shift in tadpole maturation frequency and a significant impairment of their metamorphosis. …”
