OCEAN ACIDIFICATION AFFECTS VOLATILE INFOCHEMICALS PRODUCTION AND PERCEPTION IN FAUNA AND FLORA ASSOCIATED WITH POSIDONIA OCEANICA (L.) DELILE

Ocean Acidification Affects Volatile Infochemicals Production and Perception in Fauna and Flora Associated With Posidonia oceanica (L.) Delile

Communication among marine organisms are generally based on production, transmission, and interpretation of chemical cues.Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) can act as infochemicals, and ocean acidification can alter their production in the source organisms as well as the interpretation of the information they drive to target organisms.Two diatoms (

Construction of a semi-distributed hydrological model considering the combination of saturation-excess and infiltration-excess runoff space under complex substratum

Study region: Typical basin in humid areas in the Huaihe River Study focus: Accurate flood forecasting is essential for making timely decisions regarding flood control and disaster reduction.The theory of watershed runoff generation and convergence serves as a crucial foundation for flood forecasting, while the calculation of runoff is necessary to

Conservation and divergence of chemical defense system in the tunicate Oikopleura dioica revealed by genome wide response to two xenobiotics

Abstract Background Animals have developed extensive mechanisms of response to xenobiotic chemical attacks.Although recent genome surveys have suggested a broad conservation of the chemical defensome across metazoans, global gene expression responses to xenobiotics have not been well investigated in most invertebrates.Here, we performed genome surv

Gut microbiome changes in mouse, Mongolian gerbil, and hamster models following Clostridioides difficile challenge

IntroductionClostridioides difficile infection (CDI), as well as its etiology and pathogenesis, have been extensively investigated.However, the absence of suitable CDI animal models that reflect CDI symptoms and the associated gut microbiome changes in humans has limited research progress in this field.Thus, we Lacrosse - Other - Miscellaneous aime
