New research with contributions from @michiganstateu's Dr. @BeaudrotLydia, reveals that even protected areas like national parks are losing mammal species due to human impact. Read the full story: msutoday.msu.edu/news/2025/prot…
Do #plants with larger genomes grow faster under nutrient enrichment? Data from 27 nutrient addition experiments suggest that #GenomeSize improves predictions of species’ success in #grassland communities @Jotosynthesis @E_HerschGreen &co #PLOSBiology plos.io/4fi5dwS

Screen for novel kinase regulators by @Montse_Llanses @ERainero_lab &co shows that the α2β1 integrin/p38 signaling axis is needed for internalization of #integrin-bound #ECM, modulating cell migration & invasion in diverse #cancer cells #PLOSBiology plos.io/4gzKTbp

Big news! 🎉 My first PhD chapter has been published in @PLOSBiology, and it just made the cover! 🐦🌍Perfect time to dive into the key findings from our global study on sexual selection in birds. 🧵👇 📖 Read the paper: doi.org/10.1371/journa…

A new @PLOSBiology study links copy number variants in Anopheles arabiensis to resistance against 2 key insecticides, pirimiphos-methyl and deltamethrin. Explore the findings from the analysis of mosquito genomes available through the Vector Observatory journals.plos.org/plosbiology/ar…

Ever wondered how #Christmas tree meringues can help #educate the public about science? No? Well Vinatier et al have: Find out in this Community Page how they educated the public on the importance of scientific #reproducibility with these festive treats!🎄 plos.io/49z4ZQy

Did you know that apes and human adults have similar eye movement patterns when tracking activities? Researchers at @UniNeuchatel (Switzerland) suggest that apes may understand cause-and-effect similarly to humans. @PLOSBiology: bit.ly/49hFnaW
I'm at #BES2024, representing @plosbiology there, so do come and chat to me. HOWEVER I'm no longer posting science on X, so if you want to know what's happening there, join me on Bluesky! bsky.app/profile/roliro…
This Primer explores a new #PLOSBiology study revealing the role of the mRNA-surveillance mechanism of no-go decay (NGD) in regulating gene expression during embryonic development in #zebrafish. Primer: plos.io/4frsf4B Paper: plos.io/4g4RESq

Developmental outcomes need to be robust to environmental perturbations. @goehring_lab shows that in #Celegans zygotes, PAR-dependent asymmetric #CellDivision is resistant to variations in local protein concentration & symmetry-breaking cues #PLOSBiology plos.io/3VuNjzG
