Maize, despite being thermophyllic due to its tropical origin, demonstrates high intraspecific diversity in cold-tolerance. To search for molecular mechanisms of this diversity, transcriptomic response cold was studied two inbred lines contrasting Microarray analysis followed by extensive statistical elaboration data, literature data mining, and gene ontology-based classification. The used had been bred earlier specifically determination QTLs cold-performance photosynthesis. This allowed...
Both natural and human-induced stressors cause reef erosion, resulting in rubble formation. When consolidated, the can facilitate recovery, sparking interest artificial stabilization as a method for restoration. However, our understanding of processes governing coral regeneration within beds is limited. This study examines ancient frameworks Late Triassic carbonate platform. Results show that environments exhibit successional trajectories similar to contemporary environments. Key organisms...
Abstract The fossil record is an important source of information to understand biological processes that take place over timescales not accessible human observation or experiments. Fossil data are a perfect reflection past change, but joint expression stratigraphic, ecological, evolutionary and taphonomic effects. Stratigraphic paleobiology field dedicated identifying these effects accounting for them. We present StratPal , R package in which modules can be combined into modelling pipelines...
Marine fishes are increasingly affected by climate warming and anthropogenic stressors, particularly since the beginning of Industrial Revolution. The widely accepted Temperature-Size Rule (TSR) predicts that aquatic ectotherms grow faster, mature earlier, but attain smaller adult sizes under warmer conditions. However, its universal applicability remains controversial, growth responses vary among species, ontogenetic ages ecosystems. Fossil fish offer a unique opportunity to understand...
Commercial whaling peaked between the 1700s and 1800s, leading to declines in whale populations worldwide. While it is well constrained that baleen whales have shrunk body size over past centuries - likely due pressure climate change – smaller toothed species, which were not primary targets during era, been largely understudied this regard.However, one of major challenges face global increasing anthropogenic influence predicting population order establish suitable conservation...
Abstract Energy dispersive X-ray microscopy (EDX) is a widely available, inexpensive method of characterizing the in-situ elemental composition samples in Earth and life sciences. Common protocols textbooks focussing on material sciences address EDX analysis metallic that can be polished perfectly, whereas geoscientists often investigate specimens with prominent topography composed light, difficult to resolve elements. This further compounded by scarcity literature surrounding methodology...
Abstract Background The fossil record provides the unique opportunity to observe evolution over millions of years, but is known be incomplete. While incompleteness varies spatially and hard estimate for empirical sections, computer simulations geological processes can used examine effects in silico . We combine different modes (stasis, (un)biased random walks) with deposition carbonate platforms strata how well mode recovered from time series, test results vary between positions platform...
The middle Silurian ‘big crisis’ refers to a graptolite extinction event and faunal turnover at the onset of double‐peaked positive carbon isotope excursion. crisis has been proposed affect conodonts, giving rise sophisticated palaeoecological model their stepwise extinction, known as Mulde Event. However, impact on conodont faunas outside Gotland Baltic Basin remains unknown. Here, it is examined in Widowo IG‐1 core (E Poland). succession this represents foreshoal, shoal, lagoonal settings...
Abstract Limestone–marl alternations are commonly used for high‐resolution cyclostratigraphic studies and palaeoenvironmental reconstructions, but diagenetic indicate that not all limestone–marl reflect genuine differences in the initial sediment composition driven by environmental changes. Differences ratios of diagenetically inert trace elements between limestones marls changes affecting terrigenous fraction precursor sediment. Contrarily, without these can be product of: (i) variations...
Abstract Ordination is the name given to a group of methods used analyse multiple variables without preceding hypotheses. Over last few decades, use these in Earth science general, and notably analyses sedimentary sources, has dramatically increased. However, with limited resources oriented towards scientists on topic, application ordination analysis at times suboptimal misuse by authors can occur. This text was written for researchers little no experience aim exposing them utility pitfalls...
The late Wenlock is characterized by two global regressive-transgressive eustatic cycles in association with a double-peaked positive carbon isotope excursion. onset of the excursion coincides an extinction event affecting graptolites (the lundgreni event) and proposed to affect conodonts Mulde Event) proliferation non-skeletal carbonates. In order test hypothesized relationships between ecological changes, tropical carbonate Homerian succession Podolia has been examined respect conodont,...
Marine rocks characterized by high clay content provide excellent conditions for fossil preservation, particularly organic-walled microfossils such as retiolitid graptolites and chitinozoans. Nevertheless, the phyllosilicate minerals, which constitute component, make microfossil extractions difficult. The problem results from tendency of phyllosilicates to form aggregates in low pH values, standard methods extraction employ acids rock digestion. Consequently, use clay-rich is often...
This study investigates stable isotope signatures of five species Silurian and Devonian deep-water, ahermatypic rugose corals, providing new insights into isotopic fractionation effects exhibited by Palaeozoic rugosans, possible role diagenetic processes in modifying their original signals. To minimize the influence intraskeletal cements on observed signatures, analysed specimens included unusual either devoid large open spaces ('button corals': Microcyclus, Palaeocyclus), or typified...
Conodont elements are the earliest mineralized vertebrate dental tools and only ones capable of extensive repair. Two models conodont growth, as well presence a larval stage, have been hypothesized. We analysed normally pathologically developed to test these hypotheses identified three ontogenetic stages characterized by different anisometric growth morphology. The distinction is independently corroborated differences in tissue strontium (Sr) content. onset last stage marked appearance wear...
