Annotation of newly-sequenced genomes frequently includes genes, but rarely covers important non-coding genomic features such as the cis-regulatory modules—e.g., enhancers and silencers—that regulate ...

In this valuable paper, convincing evidence is provided for the production of facultatively parthenogenetic whiptail lizards through a gametic duplication. The audience for the work will be broad, ...

Endothelial and skeletal muscle lineages arise from common embryonic progenitors. Despite their shared developmental origin, adult endothelial cells (ECs) and muscle stem cells (MuSCs) (satellite ...

The first neurodevelopmental study using a novel, wearable brain imaging system based on optically pumped magnetometers, shows age-related changes in neural oscillatory task responses and cortical ...

The structural integrity of the sperm is crucial for male fertility, defects in sperm head-tail linkage and flagellar axoneme are associated with acephalic spermatozoa syndrome (ASS) and the multiple ...

This important study uses state-of-the-art, multi-region two-photon calcium imaging to characterize the statistics of functional connectivity between visual cortical neurons. The evidence supporting ...

A computational model of skeletal muscle regeneration reveals complex interplay of cytokines, angiogenesis, and cell behaviors, predicting that synergistic cytokine perturbations enhance skeletal ...

This important study describes a neural circuit contributing to two behavioral processes affecting pathogen avoidance in the nematode C. elegans. The method used to identify specific contributing ...

The initial objective of this study was to shed light on the evolution of small DNA tumor viruses by analyzing de novo assemblies of publicly available deep sequencing datasets. The survey generated a ...

Modification of pectin, a component of the plant cell wall, is required to facilitate signaling by a RALF peptide, which is essential for many physiological and developmental processes.

Duration of bumblebees attempting to pull the strings across experiments. Median, interquartile range and range are given. Boxes show the 25 th percentile, 50 th percentile (median), 75 th percentile.

Describing morphogenesis generally consists in aggregating the multiple high resolution spatiotemporal processes involved into reproducible low dimensional morphological processes consistent across ...
