Journal ArticleDOI
Invertebrate assemblage responses and the dual roles of resistance and resilience to drying in intermittent rivers
Catherine Leigh,Núria Bonada,Andrew J. Boulton,Bernard Hugueny,Scott T. Larned,Ross Vander Vorste,Thibault Datry +6 more
TL;DR: The authors examined responses of aquatic macroinvertebrate assemblages to drying, in relation to both taxonomic composition and traits of resistance and resilience, and found that taxa that persisted at perennial sites had fewer traits conferring resistance but more conferring resilience.

Implications for seabirds off South Africa of a long-term change in the distribution of sardine
TL;DR: The distribution of sardine Sardinops sagax, an important prey item for four seabirds off South Africa, shifted 400 km to the south and east, influencing its availability to breeding birds as discussed by the authors.

Preliminary Comparison of Oral and Intestinal Human Microbiota in Patients with Colorectal Cancer: A Pilot Study
Edda Russo,Giovanni Bacci,Carolina Chiellini,Camilla Fagorzi,Elena Niccolai,Antonio Taddei,Federica Ricci,Maria Novella Ringressi,Rossella Borrelli,Filippo Melli,Manouela Miloeva,Paolo Bechi,Alessio Mengoni,Renato Fani,Amedeo Amedei +14 more
TL;DR: Next-Generation Sequencing was used to analyze and compare human microbiota from three different compartments of a selected cohort of 10 Italian patients with colorectal cancer and found a different taxonomic composition of feces from CRC compared to healthy controls.

Restlessness behaviour, heart rate and heart-rate variability of dairy cows milked in two types of automatic milking systems and auto-tandem milking parlours
TL;DR: Researchers found statistically detectable differences in restlessness behaviour, HR and HRV indicated a slightly increased stress level in dairy cows in automatic milking systems as opposed to auto-tandem milking parlours.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deficits of biodiversity and productivity linger a century after agricultural abandonment
TL;DR: It is shown that, during the century following agricultural abandonment, local plant diversity recovers only incompletely and plant productivity does not significantly recover, and the large and growing extent of recovering ecosystems provides an unprecedented opportunity to reverse the impacts of habitat loss.
