Comprehensive analyses of host genetics, root-associated microbiomes, and plant phenotypes under two nitrogen treatments reveals host genetic control of microbe abundance which, in turn, affects plant performance.

A new model describes evolutionary transitions in individuality in terms of tradeoff and tradeoff-breaking events as opposed to changes in the nature of fitness.
Organoids developed from matched human placental tissue define differences in antiviral signaling between cell types comprising the maternal-fetal interface.

There is a frequency-dependent association between the local field potential and the coordinated activity of populations of single neurons, which remains constant during different aspects of behaviour but changes across regions of primate sensorimotor cortex.
Electrophysiological recordings in awake behaving monkeys show the first evidence of the effect of continuous theta-burst stimulation, a widely used repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation protocol, at the level of single neurons.

Plasmodium falciparum aminopeptidase PfA-M17 is essential to parasite survival and plays a role in hemoglobin digestion, providing a rationale for further development of inhibitors against this enzyme.
Flight restrictions targeted at countries where SARS-CoV-2 variant-of-concern first emerged have limited effectiveness in deterring their introduction into the Netherlands due to the strength of regional travel importation risks in Europe.
