Exploratory and risk-taking behaviours in coexisting rodents

The paper measures exploration and docility in coexisting rodent species to show differences in personality phenotypes and their potential impact on community dynamics.

SenPred: A single-cell RNA sequencing-based machine learning pipeline to classify senescent cells for the detection of an in vivo senescent cell burden

SenPred uses scRNA-seq to classify senescent cells and detects in vivo senescent cell burden with high accuracy.

Single-cell and spatial transcriptomics identify a macrophage population associated with skeletal muscle fibrosis

Comparative whole plastome and low copy number phylogenetics of the core Saccharinae and Sorghinae.

The paper resolves taxonomic relationships among sugarcane, Sorghum, and related genera using whole plastome and low copy number phylogenetics, revealing monophyly of Saccharum and Miscanthus and allopolyploidy in Erianthus, Miscanthidium, and Narenga.

Using mass Spectrometry to investigate fluorescent compounds in squirrel fur

The paper uses mass spectrometry to identify fluorescent compounds in flying squirrel fur and suggests porphyrins may be responsible for fluorescence, though the exact mechanism remains unclear.

Complete Chloroplast Genomes of Saccharum giganteum, Saccharum longisetosum, Cleistachne sorghoides, Sarga timorense, Narenga porphyrocoma and Tripsacum dactyloides. Comparisons with ITS phylogeny and Placement within Saccharum.

The paper presents complete chloroplast genomes and ITS sequences for several grass species, revealing complex reticulate evolution and reclassifying some species outside the Saccharum genus.

Investigating on-road lane maintenance and speed regulation in post-stroke driving: a pilot case-control study

This study compares lane keeping and speed control between post-stroke and normal older drivers using vehicle tracking data, finding higher lane deviation in complex tasks for post-stroke drivers but no speed differences.
