Realized flower constancy in bumble bees: optimal foraging strategy balancing cognitive and travel costs and its possible consequences for floral diversity

This study shows bumble bees adjust flower constancy based on spatial mixing of flower species, suggesting it is an optimal foraging strategy rather than a cognitive limitation, and that spatial mixing may promote floral diversity.

Active site structure of the Shigella flexneri effector OspI

The paper determines the crystal structure of a C62S mutant of OspI, revealing its active site conformation and mechanism of deamidating Ubc13.

PP2AB55δ Responsible for the High Initial Rates of Alcoholic Fermentation in Sake Yeast Strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

This study identifies PP2AB55δ as a mediator of high fermentation rates in sake yeast strains through the TORC1-Greatwall-PP2AB55δ pathway.
