    Global gradients in intertidal species richness and functional groups

    Jakob Thyrring, Lloyd S Peck
    No discernible latitudinal diversity gradient in rocky intertidal α-diversity as local-scale physical and biological processes outweigh global-scale environmental gradients.

    Ancient DNA reveals the lost domestication history of South American camelids in Northern Chile and across the Andes

    Paloma Diaz-Maroto, Alba Rey-Iglesia ... Anders J Hansen
    aDNA revealed a model of domestication where an ancient guanaco population no longer exists, the loss of the ancient vicuña genetic variation in the modern populations, and frequently interbreeding practices.

    Properties of multivesicular release from mouse rod photoreceptors support transmission of single-photon responses

    Cassandra L Hays, Asia L Sladek ... Wallace B Thoreson
    To improve the reliability of transmitting small single-photon voltage responses, rod photoreceptor cells release synaptic vesicles in regularly timed multivesicular events that are exquisitely sensitive to small voltage changes.

    Acquisition of innate odor preference depends on spontaneous and experiential activities during critical period

    Qiang Qiu, Yunming Wu ... C Ron Yu
    A delicate balance of neural activity is required during critical period in establishing innate odor preference.

    A mobile genetic element increases bacterial host fitness by manipulating development

    Joshua M Jones, Ilana Grinberg ... Alan D Grossman
    A mobile genetic element provides a selective advantage to host cells by delaying development, including biofilm and spore formation, thereby enabling temporary cheating and extra divisions.

    Graphical-model framework for automated annotation of cell identities in dense cellular images

    Shivesh Chaudhary, Sol Ah Lee ... Hang Lu
    Unbiased and automatic annotation using structured prediction framework with efficiently built data-driven atlases is more accurate than registration-based methods for cell identifications in dense images and enables fast whole-brain analysis.

    CEM500K, a large-scale heterogeneous unlabeled cellular electron microscopy image dataset for deep learning

    Ryan Conrad, Kedar Narayan
    'Cellular Electron Microscopy 500,000 images' (CEM500K) is a highly heterogeneous, information-rich, non-redundant, unlabeled EM dataset curated to pre-train DL algorithms for better model generalization on EM segmentation tasks.

    tTARGIT AAVs mediate the sensitive and flexible manipulation of intersectional neuronal populations in mice

    Paul V Sabatini, Jine Wang ... Martin G Myers
    tTARGIT AAVs offer a new approach to manipulate intersectional populations that produce selective and robust transgene expression and are easily modified.

    Processing of motion boundary orientation in macaque V2

    Heng Ma, Pengcheng Li ... Haidong D Lu
    Area V2 in macaque monkeys contributes to the perception of the outlines of moving objects and achieves this through a local computation.
