Abstract Biological coloration presents a canvas for the study of ecological and evolutionary processes. Enduring interest in colour‐based phenotypes has driven, been driven by, improved techniques quantifying colour patterns ever‐more relevant ways, yet need flexible, open frameworks data processing analysis persists. Here we introduce pavo 2 , latest iteration r package . This release represents extensive refinement expansion existing methods, as well suite new tools cohesive spectral...
Abstract During 6 min exercise on a bicycle ergometer the volume of leg in normal males increased so as to indicate, after correction for regional blood volume, an average trans‐capillary fluid loss into muscles 19, 31, and 45 ml/kg tissue at light (300 kpm/min), moderate (900 heavy (1200–1500 kpm/min) work load. The total active muscle mass was calculated comprise about 1100 ml during work. Since concomitant decrease plasma 600 ml, it follows that some 500 must have entered circulatory...

Color in nature presents a striking dimension of variation, though understanding its function and evolution largely depends on our ability to capture the perspective relevant viewers. This goal has been radically advanced by development widespread adoption color spaces, which allow for viewer-subjective estimation appearance. Most studies camouflage, aposematism, sexual selection, other signaling contexts draw these models, with shared analytical objective estimating how similar (or...
Sensory drive theory contends that signaling systems should evolve to optimize transmission between senders and intended receivers, while minimizing visibility eavesdroppers where possible. In visual communication systems, the high directionality afforded by iridescent coloration presents underappreciated avenues for mediating this trade-off. This hypothesis predicts functional links signal design presentation such conspicuousness is maximized only under ecologically relevant settings and/or...
Summary There is a wealth of research on the way interactions with pollinators shape flower traits. However, we have much more to learn about influences abiotic environment colour. We combine quantitative colour data for 339 species from broad spatial range covering tropical, temperate, arid, montane and coastal environments 9.25ºS 43.75ºS 11 environmental variables test hypotheses how macroecological patterns in colouration relate biotic conditions. Both community conditions are important...
Abstract As growing urban populations have fewer chances to experience nature, i.e., ‘the extinction of experience’, the subsequent loss emotional affinities for biodiversity (biophilia) pose major challenges environmental conservation. Gardening, as an everyday nature interaction and window into invertebrate ecological functioning may offer opportunities develop biophilia. However, associations between gardening biophilia/biophobia towards invertebrates remains untested. We conducted online...
Abstract Exercise of the forearm muscles in man was found to cause a considerable increase osmolality venous effluent but no osmolar change arterial blood, thus indicating regional hyperosmolality working muscles. There relation between degree during work and extent exercise hyperemia (determined immediately after cessation exercise). Experimental similar magnitudes, produced resting skeletal muscle by intra‐arterial infusion hypertonic solutions glucose, xylose, or mannitol, invariably...
Abstract Understanding how increasing risk of frequent and severe fires affects biodiversity ecosystem function is important for effective conservation recovery, but large knowledge gaps exist many taxa in parts the world, especially invertebrates. After Australia's 2019–2020 catastrophic bushfire disaster, estimates loss government priorities post‐fire activities were focused on vertebrates plants because lack about Our synthesis published evidence reveals a fragmented ambiguous body...
Most patients with non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) do not achieve durable clinical responses from immune checkpoint inhibitors, suggesting the existence of additional resistance mechanisms. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)–induced death (NICD) P2X7 receptor (P2X7R)–expressing T cells regulates homeostasis in inflamed tissues. This process is mediated by mono–adenosine 5′-diphosphate (ADP)–ribosyltransferases (ARTs). We found an association between membranous expression ART1 on...
Summary Cryptic coloration may evolve in response to selective pressure imposed by predators, yet effective intraspecific communication require some level of detectability. This creates a tension between the benefits sexually selected visual traits and predatory costs greater conspicuousness, little is known about how this be ameliorated highly cryptic species. We explore these competing demands false garden mantid Pseudomantis albofimbriata , colour‐blind seemingly insect. use reflectance...
