Polymorphisms of large effect explain the majority of the host genetic contribution to variation of HIV-1 virus load

Jacques Fellay, Amalio Telenti, Istvan Bartha

Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of HIV-1-infected populations have been underpowered to detect common variants with moderate impact on disease outcome and have not assessed the phenotypic variance explained by genome-wide additive effects. ...

Reconstructing climate change and ombrotrophic bog development during the last 4000 years in northern Poland using biotic proxies, stable isotopes and trait-based approach

Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Mariusz Lamentowicz

In this study, we present a record spanning the last 4000 years from a Baltic bog (Kusowskie Bagno) in northern Poland. Using numerous biotic and abiotic proxies, such as testate amoebae (depth to water table reconstructions), stable carbon isotopes (C-13) ...

Drought-induced shifts in plants traits, yields and nutritive value under realistic grazing and mowing managements in a mountain grassland

Alexandre Buttler, Constant Signarbieux, Thomas Spiegelberger, Claire Emilie Deléglise

Extreme drought events can dramatically impact grassland ecosystems, causing potential loss of forage production for livestock in temperate grasslands. However, knowledge of drought effects on forage production, nutritive value and plant community stabilit ...

A bioinspired multi-modal flying and walking robot

Dario Floreano, Stefano Mintchev, Ludovic Daler

With the aim to extend the versatility and adaptability of robots in complex environments, a novel multi-modal flying and walking robot is presented. The robot consists of a flying wing with adaptive morphology that can perform both long distance flight an ...

Natural variation in genome architecture among 205 Drosophila melanogaster Genetic Reference Panel lines

Bart Deplancke, Andreas Massouras, Sandy Lee, Yi Han, Yiming Zhu

The Drosophila melanogaster Genetic Reference Panel (DGRP) is a community resource of 205 sequenced inbred lines, derived to improve our understanding of the effects of naturally occurring genetic variation on molecular and organismal phenotypes. We used a ...

Importance of Toxicokinetics for lnterspecies Variation in Sensitivity to Chemicals

Kristin Schirmer

Interspecies variation in sensitivity to synthetic chemicals can be orders of magnitude large. Species traits causing the variation can be related to toxicokinetics (uptake, distribution, biotransformation, elimination) or toxicodynamics (interaction with ...

Contrasted taxonomic, phylogenetic and functional diversity patterns in semi-natural permanent grasslands along an altitudinal gradient

François Gillet

Background and aims - Recent methodological and theoretical advances in community ecology have allowed more robust exploration of complementary facets of biodiversity in plant communities. Focusing on semi-natural permanent grasslands of the French Jura Mo ...
