TL;DR: In this article, the densities and basal areas of large living and dead trees in old-growth forest in Europe were recorded and reviewed, and it was suggested that, 10-20 living trees per ha with dbh > 70 cm may have been typical values for many central European and south Scandinavian virgin forests.

TL;DR: It is found that patients with active SLE patients and their sera frequently induced production of IFN‐α in cultures of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from healthy blood donors, especially when the PBMC were costimulated with the cytokines IFn‐α2b and granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor (GM‐CSF).
Abstract: Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) have a circulating inducer of interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha) production acting on leucocytes resembling immature dendritic cells

TL;DR: During interviews with the Pare people from Northeastern Tanzania, 29 plants that are used for medicinal purposes as well as 41 plants used for non-medicinal purposes were reported, and six medicinally used plants were selected for bioactivity analysis.

TL;DR: It is reported that uptake occurs in the liver endothelial cells and that these cells degrade the polysaccharide in vitro into low-molecular weight (LMW) products.

TL;DR: It is shown that multiple, unlinked loci act largely additively to determine position along the major niche axis separating these recently diverged species and it is found that functional mismatch between phenotypic traits reduces the growth of some stickleback hybrids beyond that expected from an intermediate phenotype.
Abstract: Ecological differences often evolve early in speciation as divergent natural selection drives adaptation to distinct ecological niches, leading ultimately to reproductive isolation. Although this process is a major generator of biodiversity, its genetic basis is still poorly understood. Here we investigate the genetic architecture of niche differentiation in a sympatric species pair of threespine stickleback fish by mapping the environment-dependent effects of phenotypic traits on hybrid feeding and performance under semi-natural conditions. We show that multiple, unlinked loci act largely additively to determine position along the major niche axis separating these recently diverged species. We also find that functional mismatch between phenotypic traits reduces the growth of some stickleback hybrids beyond that expected from an intermediate phenotype, suggesting a role for epistasis between the underlying genes. This functional mismatch might lead to hybrid incompatibilities that are analogous to those underlying intrinsic reproductive isolation but depend on the ecological context.
