Looking out for the little guys: how mussels facilitate microbes and scientists facilitate students
(2022-12-16)
Animals can have large impacts on how ecosystems function, from influencing population dynamics of other plant or animal species, to modifying hydrogeological flow dynamics. One ecosystem function that has received widespread ...
Effects of lipopolysaccharide, antipyrogen, and body condition on the chronopharmacology of fever in Dipsosaurus dorsalis.
(2006)
I examined the effects of two doses (2.5 mg kg-1 and 25 mg kg-1) of a pyrogen (lipopolysaccharide, LPS) independently and in combination with an antipyrogen (acetylsalicylic acid) at two times of injection (noon and midnight) ...
Crustacean hormone nuclear receptors: Characterization, gene expression, and evolution.
(1998)
Ecdysteroids are the arthropod molting hormones that control molting and limb regeneration in crustaceans. The actions of ecdysteroids are mediated through their nuclear receptor, ecdysteroid receptor (EcR). Studies in ...
Insulin signaling regulates neurite growth during ecdysone-dependent neuronal remodeling
(2012)
The morphological rearrangement of neurons to accommodate new functions or activities is called "neuronal remodeling". Although neuronal remodeling is an important feature of nervous systems, the mechanisms governing the ...
Community ecology of water-filled tree holes in Panama.
(1999)
Water-filled tree holes are phytotelmata formed when rain collects in branch crotches and other wood-lined cavities. Repeated surveys of natural and artificial water-filled tree holes on Barro Colorado Island (BCI), Panama, ...
REPRODUCTION IN A CHANGING ENVIRONMENT: MUSSELS, IMPOUNDMENTS, AND CONSERVATION
(2009)
As humans alter the environmental landscape, there is an increasing need to understand the relationship between species and the environment, how changes to the environment translate to populations and communities, and how ...
Distribution and occurrence of carnivores in the Oklahoma panhandle.
(2000)
Five carnivore species representing three families were detected sufficiently to permit analysis. Carnivores were, in general, not distributed evenly over regional, landscape and local scales in the panhandle environment. ...
