    Sex-determining genes distinctly regulate courtship capability and target preference via sexually dimorphic neurons

    Kenichi Ishii, Margot Wohl ... Kenta Asahina
    Sex-specific characteristics of the fruit fly courtship behavior are not specified by a single binary switch, but as a combination of traits that are modularly specified by separable genetic switches.

    Intraspecific predator interference promotes biodiversity in ecosystems

    Ju Kang, Shijie Zhang ... Xin Wang
    Intraspecific predator interference enables a wide range of consumer species to coexist with a limited variety of resources, explaining the paradox of the plankton and species diversity patterns across ecosystems.

    Sensory input-dependent gain modulation of the optokinetic nystagmus by mid-infrared stimulation in pigeons

    Tong Xiao, Kaijie Wu ... Yan Yang
    Simultaneous stimulation and recording in awake-behaving pigeons showed that mid-infrared stimulation, as a promising neuromodulation approach, could facilitate or suppress neuronal firing activity depending on its ongoing sensory responsiveness levels, and cause reversible and gain modulation on sensorimotor behavior.

    Real time, in vivo measurement of neuronal and peripheral clocks in Drosophila melanogaster

    Peter S Johnstone, Maite Ogueta ... Deniz Top
    Locally activatable bioluminescence (LABL) is a genetically encoded reporter that allows real time, in vivo measurement of distinct clocks in different cells and tissues in Drosophila.

    Negative reciprocity, not ordered assembly, underlies the interaction of Sox2 and Oct4 on DNA

    John W Biddle, Maximilian Nguyen, Jeremy Gunawardena
    Rigorous reanalysis of single-molecule data yields evidence for energy expenditure in the interaction of transcription factors on DNA.

    T-follicular helper cells are epigenetically poised to transdifferentiate into T-regulatory type 1 cells

    Josep Garnica, Patricia Sole ... Pere Santamaria
    T-regulatory type 1 cells inherit a broad repertoire of epigenetic marks from T-follicular helper T-cells, offering new insights into the developmental biology of this subset.

    Integrated externally and internally generated task predictions jointly guide cognitive control in prefrontal cortex

    Jiefeng Jiang, Anthony D Wagner, Tobias Egner
    The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex integrates concurrent externally and internally generated predictions of task demand to guide information processing, while the medial prefrontal cortex corrects its prediction error based on actual task demand.

    Single-amino acid variants reveal evolutionary processes that shape the biogeography of a global SAR11 subclade

    Tom O Delmont, Evan Kiefl ... A Murat Eren
    An in-depth metagenomic analysis of possibly the most abundant and widespread microbial lineage in the surface ocean teases apart evolutionary processes that maintain its genomic heterogeneity and biogeography.

    Cerebellum encodes and influences the initiation, performance, and termination of discontinuous movements in mice

    Michael A Gaffield, Britton A Sauerbrei, Jason M Christie
    The activity of cerebellar Purkinje cells both represents and participates in organizing the temporal structure of a periodically performed motor action.
