In vision-based flight control of hummingbird hawkmoths, the visual field partitions by natural cue prevalence into an optic flow and dorsal directional pathway, which integrate according to their ...

Genetic analyses of rare non-mosaic females define X-inactivation status for 380 genes and uncover widespread X-chromosome skewing in the general population, providing insights into sex-biased traits ...

This study explores the use of polarized second-harmonic generation (pSHG) to investigate myosin conformation in the relaxed state, differentiating between the actin-available, disordered (ON) state ...

This useful study employs optogenetics, genetically-encoded dopamine and serotonin sensors, and patch-clamp electrophysiology to investigate modulations of neurotransmitter release between striatal ...

Dysregulated myelopoiesis is identified as a driver of nutritionally acquired immunodeficiency that persists after refeeding and nutritional recovery, indicating exposure to food scarcity may be an ...

This study provides compelling evidence that action potential (AP) broadening is not a universal feature of homeostatic plasticity in response to chronic activity deprivation. By leveraging ...

EPHA4 pathway dysfunction causes axon pathfinding defects, resulting in impaired coordinated left-right locomotion by disrupting neural patterning and the function of central pattern generators, ...

This valuable study investigates the neural basis of bidirectional communication between the cortex and hippocampus during learning. The evidence supporting the identification of specific circuits and ...

The Drosophila microbiome regulates the cycling of gut metabolites in a circadian clock and diet-dependent manner.

This article presents valuable findings on how the timing of cooling affects the timing of autumn bud set in European beech saplings. The study leverages extensive experimental data and provides an ...

Nature is marked not only by struggles for survival, but also by remarkable feats of cooperation. From microbes to insects to humans, organisms work together in a variety of ways to gather and share ...
