Novel prokaryotic system employing previously unknown nucleic acids-based receptors

Victor Tetz, George Tetz

Summary: This study describes a previously unknown universal system that orchestrates the interaction of bacteria with the environment, which has also been discovered in eukaryotes. The system controls various aspects of bacterial behavior and supervises the function of other signaling pathways. Additionally, it is responsible for maintaining cell memory and the ability to forget preceding events.

Chemical defence effective against multiple enemies: Does the response to conspecifics alleviate the response to predators?

Balint Uveges, Anna C. Basson, Agnes M. Moricz, Veronika Bokony, Attila Hettyey

Summary: Animals living in high conspecific densities tend to decrease their level of anti-predatory defence due to diminishing benefits and increasing costs, while phenotypic responses that protect from predators may be disadvantageous against competitors and infections. However, when the same phenotype provides effective defence against both predators and competitors, the defence expression is expected to increase. Overall, the study found that toad tadpoles adjust their chemical defence based on conspecific density and predation risk, with these effects likely to be additive rather than non-additive.

Pathogens and predators: examining the separate and combined effects of natural enemies on assemblage structure

Turner S. DeBlieux, Jason T. Hoverman

Summary: The field of natural enemy ecology aims to study the interactions between predator-prey and host-pathogen, and their effects on community structure and pathogen transmission. This study found that different natural enemies resulted in unique community structures, with predators having the most significant impact. Additionally, predators were able to reduce pathogen transmission, with different predator species having varying effects.

The soymilk diet: A previously unknown etiology of acute pancreatitis

Ian S. DeSouza, Alexander Lipsitt

Summary: Daily, large ingestions of soymilk can potentially lead to acute pancreatitis due to the trypsin inhibitor in soybean, which reduces trypsin activity and can cause inappropriate increase in intrapancreatic trypsin secretion when intestinal proteolytic activity decreases, exceeding the capacity of pancreatic secretory trypsin inhibitor.

Natural Enemies of Zebra and Quagga Mussels: Predators, Parasites, and Ecological Competitors

Alexander Y. Karatayev, Daniel P. Molloy, Lyubov E. Burlakova

Summary: This article reviews the international literature on the natural enemies of Dreissena spp.-bivalves, which have strong impacts on aquatic ecosystems, industries, fisheries, and aquaculture worldwide. It presents an updated version of a previous treatment on this topic, covering the biology and ecology of organisms involved in the predation, parasitism and commensalism, and competitive exclusion of Dreissena species. Predators can temporarily reduce dreissenid populations in certain areas, but a diverse and abundant community of natural enemies plays a limited role in suppressing Dreissena densities, ultimately far from eradication. However, these enemies have a positive impact on energy flow, redirecting it from the benthic community to the pelagic environment.

Identification and Genomic Characterization of Two Previously Unknown Magnetotactic Nitrospirae

Wensi Zhang, Yinzhao Wang, Li Liu, Yongxin Pan, Wei Lin

Summary: Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are a group of widespread microbes in aquatic environments that play key roles in global iron and sulfur cycling. This study identified two novel MTB populations within the Nitrospirae phylum through metagenomic analyses, revealing their ability to form abundant magnetosomal crystals and providing insights into their metabolic potential in distinct microenvironments. Additionally, a conserved magnetosome gene cluster was identified across Nitrospirae MTB genomes, suggesting its adaptive roles in these bacteria.

A previously unknown way of heme detoxification in the digestive tract of cats

Alexandr B. Duzhak, Petr S. Sherin, Vadim V. Yanshole, Sergey L. Veber, Sergey Baiborodin, Olga Sinitsyna, Yuri P. Tsentalovich

Summary: A newly discovered process for neutralizing free heme in the digestive tract of domestic cats involves encapsulating heme into hydroxyapatite nanoparticles and excreting them with feces, similar to the formation of heme-containing particles in other hematophagous species. The efficiency of this process depends on the bone content in a cat's diet, with in vitro experiments confirming the proposed scenario.

A previously unknown feeding mode in millipedes and the convergence of fluid feeding across arthropods

Leif Moritz, Elena Borisova, Joerg U. Hammel, Alexander Blanke, Thomas Wesener

Summary: This study reports the use of a sucking pump for fluid feeding in the arthropod class Diplopoda. The findings show that these millipedes have a pumping chamber similar to that of insects, indicating convergent evolution in the biomechanical solution for fluid feeding across major arthropod taxa. Fluid feeding is an important evolutionary innovation in terrestrial arthropods, and further research is needed to understand why certain lineages, such as Colobognatha, have fewer species compared to fluid-feeding insects.

Corallivory varies with water depth to influence the growth of Acropora hyacinthus, a reef-forming coral

Mark C. Ladd, Erin M. Winslow, Deron E. Burkepile, Hunter S. Lenihan

Summary: Water depth and corallivory have independent and interactive effects on coral growth rates. Coral populations recover at different rates after a major disturbance, with shallower populations recovering more quickly. Coral predators significantly reduce growth rates at 5 and 10 meters depth where corallivory intensity is greatest.

Priority effects in coral-macroalgae interactions can drive alternate community paths in the absence of top-down control

Thomas C. Adam, Sally J. Holbrook, Deron E. Burkepile, Kelly E. Speare, Andrew J. Brooks, Mark C. Ladd, Andrew A. Shantz, Rebecca Vega Thurber, Russell J. Schmitt

Summary: The outcomes of species interactions can vary greatly in time and space, and this study found that benthic algae can colonize coral reefs and inhibit reef-building corals in the absence of herbivorous fishes. However, corals can also inhibit colonization by macroalgae. The experiments also showed that juvenile corals have a strong priority effect in suppressing macroalgae, even in the absence of herbivores.

Positive interactions between corals and damselfish increase coral resistance to temperature stress

Andrew A. Shantz, Mark C. Ladd, Leila Ezzat, Russell J. Schmitt, Sally J. Holbrook, Emily Schmeltzer, Rebecca Vega Thurber, Deron E. Burkepile

Summary: By the end of the century, many tropical seas will exceed the thermal tolerance of most coral species, and their persistence in these regions will depend on their ability to tolerate thermal stress. In this study, it was found that interactions with damselfish can enhance the thermal tolerance of corals, indicating that positive interactions play a critical role in maintaining some coral species in warming regions.

Collapsed oyster populations in large Florida estuaries appear resistant to restoration using traditional cultching methods-Insights from ongoing efforts in multiple systems

W. E. Pine III, J. Brucker, M. Davis, S. Geiger, R. Gandy, A. Shantz, T. Stewart Merrill, E. V. Camp

Summary: This study evaluated the outcomes of six oyster restoration projects in the northern Gulf of Mexico. Regardless of the type or density of the substrates used, oyster populations did not consistently increase after restoration. Positive responses were irregular and short-lived, only occurring for spat-size oysters immediately after restoration. None of the restoration efforts significantly improved the abundance of oysters of any size-class in any of the study estuaries. Factors contributing to these results likely include design and implementation elements, such as the materials used and the height of the restored reefs. However, monitoring programs have not been able to provide a clear understanding of what hinders restoration success.
