    1. Ecology

    Eco-evolutionary dynamics modulate plant responses to global change depending on plant diversity and species identity

    Peter Dietrich, Jens Schumacher ... Christiane Roscher
    Offspring of plants selected at low and high plant diversity differently respond to global change drivers (nitrogen enrichment, drought), as reflected by their biomass production and trait expression, whereby plant-soil interactions play a significant role in these processes.

    Characterizing a psychiatric symptom dimension related to deficits in goal-directed control

    Claire M Gillan, Michal Kosinski ... Nathaniel D Daw
    A dimensional approach to psychiatry demonstrates the specificity and generalizability of a neurocognitive marker of compulsive behavior and intrusive thought via large-scale online testing.

    PPP1R35 is a novel centrosomal protein that regulates centriole length in concert with the microcephaly protein RTTN

    Andrew Michael Sydor, Etienne Coyaud ... Vito Mennella
    The previously uncharacterized protein PPP1R35 is a novel centriolar luminal protein critical for centriole elongation by acting in a complex with microcephaly protein RTTN.

    Environment as a limiting factor of the historical global spread of mungbean

    Pei-Wen Ong, Ya-Ping Lin ... Cheng-Ruei Lee
    After domestication, the cultivation range expansion of crops was not solely dictated by human activity but instead constrained by climatic factors, which in turn resulted in distinct phenotypic characteristics of locally adaptive landraces.

    Extreme suction attachment performance from specialised insects living in mountain streams (Diptera: Blephariceridae)

    Victor Kang, Robin T White ... Walter Federle
    Net-winged midge larvae use suction organs covered in spine-like cuticular protrusions to generate powerful attachment on wet and rough surfaces.
  1. Food for thought: an interview with Ana Domingos

    Ana Domingos of the Gulbenkian Science Institute in Portugal has forged a career learning why we like certain types of food. By looking at the reward system of the mouse brain, she has revealed pathways that explain why animals prefer sugar, and perhaps why it may factor so strongly in the Western diet.

    Novel insights into breast cancer copy number genetic heterogeneity revealed by single-cell genome sequencing

    Timour Baslan, Jude Kendall ... James Hicks
    Copy number alteration heterogeneity exists in many shapes and forms in breast cancer genomes and single-cell genomics is a powerful tool to further our understanding of its nature and significance.

    Both consumptive and non-consumptive effects of predators impact mosquito populations and have implications for disease transmission

    Marie C Russell, Catherine M Herzog ... Andrew C McCall
    While predators can clearly reduce mosquito populations by consumption, they can also have non-consumptive effects on mosquito body size and oviposition behavior, and these effects on vector traits can influence infectious disease dynamics.
