Aim: To evaluate (1) whether three migratory nightjar species (Family Caprimulgidae) adhere to Bergmann's rule, (2) whether environmental factors on the breeding or wintering grounds determine body size, and (3) which mechanistic hypotheses best explain Bergmannian patterns in body size. Location: North and South America; Europe and Africa. Taxon: Eastern whip-poor-will (Antrostomus vociferus), Co

Conservation grazing is widely used to manage open ecosystems, but inconsistent definitions and inadequate reporting of grazing patterns hinder effective communication among researchers, practitioners and policymakers, limiting the understanding and success of conservation grazing regimes. We demonstrate detailed measurement of the grazing pattern (comprising timing, intensity, duration and freque

Popular Abstract in Swedish Det mesta av det genetiska materialet i en eukaryot cell finns samlat till kärnan och är organiserat i kromosomer. Varje gång en cell delas kopieras kromosomerna så att de båda resulterande cellerna får ett bibehållet kromosomantal. Den mekanism som styr denna replikeringsprocess förmår dock inte kopiera de yttersta kromosomändarna, vilket resulterar i att dessa blir koTelomeres are specialized complexes of DNA and proteins that cap and confer stability to the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes. The telomeric DNA of most eukaryotes is composed of tandemly arranged short repeats. Within the budding yeasts these repeats are diverged in length as well as in nucleotide composition. However, they contain a sequence resembling the consensus binding sequence of the major t

Purpose - Considering the importance of supply chain integration (SCI) in literature and the increasing outsourcing of logistics, this paper aims to study the role of logistics service providers (LSPs) in supporting SCI and clients' performance.

Design/methodology/approach – This research is based on a two-step approach: a literature review on supply chain integration (SCI

Alternative splicing is central to metazoan gene regulation, but the regulatory mechanisms are incompletely understood. Here, we show that G-quadruplex (G4) motifs are enriched ~3-fold near splice junctions. The importance of G4s in RNA is emphasised by a higher enrichment for the non-template strand. RNA-seq data from mouse and human neurons reveals an enrichment of G4s at exons that were skipped

CD59 is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored cell surface inhibitor of the complement membrane attack complex (MAC). We showed previously that CD59 is highly expressed in pancreatic islets but is down-regulated in rodent models of diabetes. CD59 knockdown but not enzymatic removal of cell surface CD59 led to a loss of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS), suggesting that an intrace

This article explores the ethics of world heritage (WH) through a cosmopolitan lens. It proposes that cosmopolitanism provides fertile ground for the study of WH, in particular if combined with sensitivity to distinct indigenous ethical and political claims. Underpinning my article is the question of whether the politics of WH, despite its peaceful and universalist intensions, obscures local dispu

Sustainable agriculture relies on pollinators, and wild bees benefit yield of multiple crops. However, the combined exposure to pesticides and loss of flower resources, driven by agricultural intensification, contribute to declining diversity and abundance of many bee taxa. Flower plantings along the margins of agricultural fields offer diverse food resources not directly treated with pesticides.

Formate dehydrogenases (FDHs) are metalloenzymes that catalyse the reversible conversion of formate to carbon dioxide. Since such a process may be used to combat the greenhouse effect, FDHs have been extensively studied by experimental and theoretical methods. However, the reaction mechanism is still not clear; instead five putative mechanisms have been suggested. In this work, the reaction mechan

Powder materials containing copper ions supported on ZSM-5 (Cu-Zeolite Socony Mobil-5) and SSZ-13 (Cu-Standard Oil synthesised zeolite-13), and predominantly CuO nanoparticles on amorphous SiO2 were synthesised, characterised, wash-coated onto ceramic monoliths and, for the first time, compared as catalysts for direct conversion of methane to methanol (DCMM) at ambient pressure (1 atm) using O2, N

Between February 1999 and July 2000, a team of researchers from Britain, Denmark, France, and Sweden carried out a telephone survey, background investigations, and six expert seminars in Central and Eastern Europe, with the purpose of exploring the consequences and implications of the spread of ISO 14001 and EMAS in this region. The telephone survey, carried out during the summer of 1999, targeted
