DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolind.2016.11.038
Abstract: Abstract The expansion of large-scale plantations has a major impact on landscapes in the Tropics and Subtropics. Crops like soy bean, oil palm and rubber have led to drastic changes in land cover over the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ttbdis.2017.11.008
Abstract: The development of transgenic techniques has been reported in many protozoan parasites over the past few years. We recently established a successful transient transfection system for Babesia gibsoni based on Bg 5'-ef-1α promoter. This study… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1365-2745.13031
Abstract: Recent insights show that tropical forests are shifting in species composition, possibly due to changing environmental conditions. However, we still poorly understand the forest response to different environmental change drivers, which limits our ability to… read more here.

Parallel responses of species diversity and functional diversity to changes in patch size are driven by distinct processes

DOI: 10.1111/1365-2745.13506
Abstract: Do species and functional trait diversity respond similarly to deterministic and random processes? Theory predicts that the contributions of random and deterministic processes to species diversity depend on patch size. Smaller patches are more strongly… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.1007162
Abstract: The evolutionarily conserved nature of the few well-known anti-aging interventions that affect lifespan, such as caloric restriction, suggests that aging-related research in model organisms is directly relevant to human aging. Since human lifespan is a… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.889175
Abstract: Similar to human monocytes, bovine monocytes can be split into CD14highCD16- classical, CD14highCD16high intermediate and CD14-/dimCD16high nonclassical monocytes (cM, intM, and ncM, respectively). Here, we present an in-depth analysis of their steady-state bulk- and single-cell… read more here.
