Plant pathogens secrete an arsenal of small secreted proteins (SSPs) acting as effectors that modulate host immunity to
facilitate infection. SSP-encoding genes are often located in particular genomic environments and show waves of concerted
expression at diverse stages of plant infection. To date, little is known about the regulation of...

Carbonate communities:The activity of anaerobic methane oxidizing microbes facilitates
precipitation of vast quantities of authigenic carbonate at methane seeps. Here we demonstrate
the significant role of carbonate rocks in promoting diversity by providing unique habitat
and food resources for macrofaunal assemblages at seeps on the Costa Rica margin
(400–1850 m)....

BACKGROUND: We compared 24-hour waist-worn accelerometer wear time characteristics of 9-11 year old children
in the International Study of Childhood Obesity, Lifestyle and the Environment (ISCOLE) to similarly aged U.S. children
providing waking-hours waist-worn accelerometer data in the 2003-2006 National Health and Nutrition Examination
Survey (NHANES).
METHODS: Valid cases were...

Biodiversity continues to decline in the face of increasing anthropogenic pressures such as habitat destruction, exploitation, pollution and introduction of alien species. Existing global databases of species’ threat status or population time series are dominated by charismatic species. The collation of datasets with broad taxonomic and biogeographic extents, and that...

Circadian clocks coordinate physiological, neurological, and behavioral functions into circa 24 hour rhythms, and the
molecular mechanisms underlying circadian clock oscillations are conserved from Drosophila to humans. Clock oscillations
and clock-controlled rhythms are known to dampen during aging; additionally, genetic or environmental clock disruption
leads to accelerated aging and increased...

Background: We present a model for reporting accelerometer paradata (process-related data produced from survey administration) collected in the International Study of Childhood Obesity Lifestyle and the Environment (ISCOLE), a multi-national investigation of >7000 children (averaging 10.5 years of age) sampled from 12 different developed and developing countries and five continents....
