Study area and sampling In each growing area, we mainly sampled (90%) apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) orchards (Supplementary Table S1); the remaining 10% of sampled orchards consisted of cultivated myrobalan plum (Prunus cerasifera Ehrh.), European plum (Prunus domestica L.), Japanese plum (Prunus salicina Lindl.) and peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch) trees. Most of the samples were […] More

In this study commercial honey bee colonies spent several months in apiaries in an “original landscape”, after which they were moved to a common site. If the original landscape had a short, limited impact on colony growth and behavior, then colonies would be expected to exhibit roughly the same behaviors among themselves after having been […] More

Extraction condition optimization The tubers of C. yanhusuo were selected, which were irregular and oblate in appearance and 1~2 cm in diameter. The best tubers were big, plump, solid, yellow and bright in inner color. To maximize extraction efficiency and the amount of fingerprint information, we optimized extraction conditions using a univariate approach, which included the […] More

The database31 provides a comprehensive overview of the current knowledge of the fish species diversity and distribution in the Amazon Basin, with 21,500 sites (Fig. 1), 232,936 georeferenced occurrence records and 2,128 non-georeferenced records from 590 different sources combining literature, scientific collections, sampling campaigns and partner’s datasets. Some of the online biodiversity repositories (Table 1) showed some […] More
