Habitat amount or landscape configuration: Emerging HotSpot analysis reveals the importance of habitat amount for a grassland bird in South Dakota

The authors of the article used pheasants (Phasianus colchicus) across South Dakota, USA as a model species to identify environmental factors driving spatiotemporal variation in population productivity. They found that the amount of grassland at a local spatial scale was the primary factor influencing an area being a HotSpot.

Role of microRNAs and their downstream target transcription factors in zebrafish thrombopoiesis (open access)

Role of microRNAs and their downstream target transcription factors in zebrafish thrombopoiesis

Article describes how previous studies have shown that human platelets and megakaryocytes carry microRNAs suggesting their role in platelet function and megakaryocyte development. In their laboratory, the authors identified 15 microRNAs in thrombocytes using single-cell RNA sequencing.
