Dispersal limitations and historical factors determine the biogeography of specialized terrestrial protists

Edward Mitchell, Luca Bragazza, Mariusz Lamentowicz, Enrique Lara, Bertrand Fournier

Recent studies show that soil eukaryotic diversity is immense and dominated by micro-organisms. However, it is unclear to what extent the processes that shape the distribution of diversity in plants and animals also apply to micro-organisms. Major diversif ...

A unique coral biomineralization pattern has resisted 40 million years of major ocean chemistry change

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski, Isabelle Domart-Coulon

Today coral reefs are threatened by changes to seawater conditions associated with rapid anthropogenic global climate change. Yet, since the Cenozoic, these organisms have experienced major fluctuations in atmospheric CO2 levels (from greenhouse conditions ...

Scleractinian coral morphogenesis : searching for stem cells and precursors of the skeletogenic calicodermis

Agathe Eliette Marie Lecointe

Metamorphosis is a crucial step in the life cycle of a scleractinian coral: The swimming coral larva, the planula, settles, and metamorphoses into a sessile calcifying primary polyp, which subsequently grows into an adult colony. Importantly, morphogenesis ...

Redox variations and bioproductivity in the Ediacaran: Evidence from inorganic and organic geochemistry of the Corumba Group, Brazil

Mariluz Bagnoud

Stable isotope ratios combined with elemental compositions and molecular biomass data provide a powerful tool in Neoproterozoic palaeoenvironmental interpretations. Here, we report the results of an extensive organic and inorganic geochemical study perform ...

Dark Silicon Accelerators for Database Indexing

Babak Falsafi, Yusuf Onur Koçberber, Kevin Lim

The growing explosion of digital data motivates renewed emphasis on new architectures for future data-centric workloads. At the same time, the inability of power to scale with increasing transistor counts has led to a recent focus on “dark silicon” designs ...

26Mg labeling of the sea urchin regenerating spine: Insights into echinoderm biomineralization process

Anders Meibom, Christophe Kopp, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski

This paper reports the results of the first dynamic labeling experiment with regenerating spines of sea urchins Paracentrotus lividus using the stable isotope Mg-26 and NanoSIMS high-resolution isotopic imaging, which provide a direct information about the ...
