Description of the study area and plant collection Entire flowers were manually collected from endemic plants growing on the banks of the Nema River, next to Dielmo (13°43′23.43′′N, 16°24′46.27′′W) and Simong (13°37′55.63′′N, 16°23′08.24′′W) (Fig. 3). Dielmo is located in the Fatick region of Senegal, in an area of Sudanese savannah approximately 174 miles from Dakar and […] More

A recent study linked Z10-C33 to Varroa-infested, DWV-infected, and hygiene-targeted honey bee brood50. Given the structural similarity of Z10-C33 to Z6-C15, previously linked to hygienic removal49, we decided to investigate the effectiveness of Z10-C33 and Z6-C15 in triggering hygienic behavior. For this purpose, Varroa-Sensitive Hygienic (VSH), Minnesota Hygienic (HYG), and unselected control (UNS) honey bee […] More

In phase 1, both reactors had similar (~100%) nitrification performance. While this is consistent with a previous study7, it contradicts other studies that reported a 30–70% reduction in AOX at C/N ratios of 0.6-0.9 16,34,35. The discrepancy could be because in some of these studies, the same bioreactor was operated at new C/N ratios with […] More

Champsosaurus brain endocast CMN 8920 (Champsosaurus lindoei) was scanned at a higher resolution than CMN 8919 (C. natator), and therefore more accurately illustrates details of the endocranial anatomy of Champsosaurus. As such, CMN 8920 forms the basis of this description, and only notable differences with CMN 8919 will be discussed. Taphonomic deformation of both braincases […] More
