Matrimeres are systemic nanoscale mediators of tissue integrity and function

K. Debnath, I. Qayoom, S. O'Donnell, J. Ekiert, C. Wang, M. A. Sanborn, C. Liu, A. Rivera, I. S. Cho, S. Saichellappa, P. T. Toth, D. Mehta, J. Rehman, X. Du, Y. Gao, J.-W. Shin

The paper identifies matrimeres as nanoscale mediators of tissue integrity, showing they can restore vascular integrity after injury and are reconstituted from fibronectin, DNA, and acidic conditions.

Horizontal transfers between fungal Fusarium species contributed to successive outbreaks of coffee wilt disease

L. D. Peck, T. Llewellyn, B. Bennetot, S. O'Donnell, R. W. Nowell, M. J. Ryan, J. Flood, R. C. Rodriguez de la Vega, J. Ropars, T. Giraud, P. D. Spanu, T. G. Barraclough

This study identifies horizontal gene transfers from Fusarium oxysporum to Fusarium xylarioides as a mechanism driving the repeated outbreaks of coffee wilt disease.

Microbial symbionts are shared between ants and their associated beetles

C. Valdivia, J. A. Newton, S. O'Donnell, C. von Beeren, D. J. C. Kronauer, J. A. Russell, P. Lukasik

The paper compares the microbiota of army ants and their associated beetles, finding shared microbial genotypes across unrelated species.

Individual reflectance of solar radiation confers a thermoregulatory benefit to dimorphic males bees (Centris pallida) using distinct microclimates

M. Barrett, S. O'Donnell

The paper shows that dimorphic male bees (Centris pallida) exhibit different solar reflectance profiles based on their microclimate use, with larger males being more reflective to aid thermoregulation.

Evidence for adaptive morphological plasticity in the Caribbean coral, Acropora cervicornis.

W. C. Million, M. Ruggeri, S. O'Donnell, E. Bartels, C. J. Krediet, C. D. Kenkel

This study shows that genotype-by-environment interactions affect coral morphology and survival, with plasticity linked to faster growth and higher survival in the endangered coral A. cervicornis.

Larval mannitol diets increase mortality, prolong development, and decrease adult body sizes in fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster).

M. Barrett, K. Fiocca, E. A. Waddell, C. McNair, S. O'Donnell, D. R. Marenda

This study shows that larval mannitol diets in Drosophila melanogaster increase mortality, prolong development, and reduce adult body size, similar to high-sugar diets, but females avoid laying eggs on mannitol-containing media.

Mannitol ingestion causes concentration-dependent, sex-specific mortality in adults of the fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster).

K. Fiocca, M. Barrett, E. A. Waddell, C. McNair, S. O'Donnell, D. R. Marenda

This study shows that mannitol ingestion causes concentration-dependent, sex-specific mortality in adult Drosophila melanogaster, with females showing higher mortality than males.
