Article accompanying a poster presentation for the 2014 Annual Computational Neuroscience Meeting. This article discusses optical imaging of prefrontal cortex hemodynamic response in executive function induced by increased cardiovascular activity.

This article contains a letter to the editor describing recent progress in understanding the role of reactive oxygen species in plant cell signaling.

This article presents a review of traits relevant to the development of dual purpose varieties is presented with particular emphasis on stover moisture and stay-green.

Article on the characterization of the formation of branched short-chain fatty acid and CoAs for bitter acid biosynthesis in hop glandular trichomes.

Article on genome-wide analysis of phenylpropanoid defence pathways.

This article presents a method that enables thirty-eight metabolites (proteinogenic amino acids and related compounds) to be analyzed, with an improved sensitivity of 1 to 5 orders of magnitude compared to existing methods.

Article describes experiment in which juvenile alligators were exposed to 12‰ saltwater for 5 weeks to determine the effects of chronic exposure to saline environments.

This article communicates the results of a study conducted on red-winged blackbirds where brain phospholipid composition during development was measured and diet was manipulated. The dietary study confirmed that nestling brains are sensitive to fatty acid supply. The findings of this article suggest that Red-winged blackbirds may be able to advance cognitive development relative to other altricial species owing to their aquatic maternal diet.

This article studies the response of mutants impaired in ABA signalling (abi1-1) and biosynthesis (aba1-1) to a combination of water deficit and heat stress.

Article on the diversity of bacteria at healthy human conjunctiva.

Article expressing two closely related plant FAD3 genes in yeast cells and found that their enzymes produced significantly different amounts of omega-3 fatty acids and that these differences correlated to differences in rates of protein turnover. The findings indicate that Fad3 protein abundance is regulated by a combination of cis-acting degradation signals and the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway and that modulation of Fad3 protein amounts in response to temperature may represent one mechanism of homeoviscous adaptation in plants.

This paper reviews current and historical studies that have facilitated the implementation of management techniques on multiple scales.

This paper discusses a classification on 4 LANDSAT scenes of Clay County, Texas, from July and December 2015 to identify bobwhite habitat in subhumid and semiarid rangeland.

This paper discusses volunteer retention and efficacy for the Texas Quail Index.

This paper includes a review and recommendation by the National Bobwhite Technical Committee Science Subcommittee, along with a discussion of the state of science on key aspects of bobwhite conservation, best management practices for translocation, and ways to reduce uncertainty about implementation.

This paper examines the types of insecticides that have been used in the United States, how quail could be exposed to these substances, and how they may have contributed to declining quail populations.

Article accompanying a poster for the 2010 Computational Neuroscience Annual Meeting. This article discusses computational criteria for establishing reflex from plasticity to hardwiring.

In this article, a theoretical model of social empathic emotion is derived based on the principles of survival by extending the maximization of self-gains to include others as an extended-self. This extended-self model of optimization for survival provides the computational mechanisms in the optimization process to maximize self-gains without minimizing the gains (or maximizing losses) for the other individuals. Thus, it can resolve conflicts in a competitive environment, and change the social dynamics into a cooperative interaction instead.

In this article, freshwater macroinvertebrate diversity associated with lakes and ponds along the altitudinal gradient of a Magellanic sub-Antarctic watershed are assessed. A monotonic decline in species richness was observed with increasing elevation, with simpler and more even community composition at higher altitude. This pattern differs from the mid-peak trend found in streams of the same watershed. Functional feeding group structure also diminished with increasing elevation.

Article discussing the quantification of fairness bias in relation to decisions using a relativistic fairness equity-model.

Article discussing the quantification of fairness perception by including other-regarding concerns using a relativistic fairness-equity model.
