Admixture with cultivated sunflower likely facilitated establishment and spread of wild sunflower (H. annuus) in Argentina

The paper investigates the invasion history of wild sunflower in Argentina, finding that admixture with cultivated sunflower and genomic selection contributed to its establishment and spread.

Multidimensional Analysis of the Adult Human Heart in Health and Disease using Hierarchical Phase-Contrast Tomography (HiP-CT)

This paper demonstrates HiP-CT's ability to image adult human hearts at multiple scales, revealing structural details in health and disease.

Mapping the blood vasculature in an intact human kidney using hierarchical phase-contrast tomography

This study maps the entire human kidney vasculature using hierarchical phase-contrast tomography, revealing structural differences in vascular architecture across kidney zones.

A closer look at high-energy X-ray-induced bubble formation during soft tissue imaging

This study investigates X-ray-induced bubble formation in soft tissues using combined imaging and gas analysis, showing vacuum degassing delays bubble nucleation and reveals dose-controlled growth mechanisms.

Persistence of cultivar alleles in wild carrot (Daucus carota L.) populations in the United States

The paper examines introgression of cultivar alleles into wild carrot populations in the U.S., finding evidence of persistence in some areas but not others.

Differential ability of three bee species to move genes via pollen

The paper compares gene movement abilities of three bee species by analyzing seed curves and foraging behavior in relation to gene flow.

Preparation of large biological samples for high-resolution, hierarchical, multi-modal imaging

This paper describes a protocol for preparing large biological samples for high-resolution X-ray microtomography, improving contrast and reducing motion and bubble formation.

Protein undernutrition reduces the efficacy of praziquantel in a murine model of Schistosoma mansoni infection

This study shows that protein undernutrition in mice reduces praziquantel's effectiveness against Schistosoma mansoni infection by worsening liver damage, oxidative stress, and immune responses.
