    ImmunoCluster provides a computational framework for the nonspecialist to profile high-dimensional cytometry data

    James W Opzoomer, Jessica A Timms ... Shahram Kordasti
    ImmunoCluster permits nonspecialist users to interrogate liquid and imaging mass, and flow cytometry datasets, resolving novel layers of cellular heterogeneity and insight, as well as producing publishable outputs and figures.

    The cuticular hydrocarbon profiles of honey bee workers develop via a socially-modulated innate process

    Cassondra L Vernier, Joshua J Krupp ... Yehuda Ben-Shahar
    Chemical nestmate recognition in honey bee colonies depends on an innate, socially modulated developmental process.

    Ancient role of sulfakinin/cholecystokinin-type signalling in inhibitory regulation of feeding processes revealed in an echinoderm

    Ana B Tinoco, Antón Barreiro-Iglesias ... Maurice R Elphick
    Starfish feed by everting their stomach out of their mouth over prey and, interestingly, this unusual feeding mechanism is inhibited by substances similar to hormones that regulate feeding in humans.

    A virus responds instantly to the presence of the vector on the host and forms transmission morphs

    Alexandre Martinière, Aurélie Bak ... Martin Drucker
    Cauliflower mosaic virus reacts immediately when aphids feed on the host plant, and this boosts its chances of being taken up and transmitted by the insects to a new plant.

    How scent and nectar influence floral antagonists and mutualists

    Danny Kessler, Mario Kallenbach ... Ian T Baldwin
    Floral scent and nectar are highly variable in natural populations and both traits can influence outcrossing rates differently for different pollinators and increase future herbivory.

    Herbivory-induced volatiles function as defenses increasing fitness of the native plant Nicotiana attenuata in nature

    Meredith C Schuman, Kathleen Barthel, Ian T Baldwin
    A 2-year field study has demonstrated that volatile compounds produced by plants when they are attacked by herbivores act as defenses by attracting predators to the herbivores and increasing the reproduction of the plants.

    Hawkmoths evaluate scenting flowers with the tip of their proboscis

    Alexander Haverkamp, Felipe Yon ... Danny Kessler
    Building on previous work (Kessler et al., 2015), it is shown that long-tongued hawkmoths assess individual flowers by smelling floral odors with olfactory neurons on their proboscises, and that this close-range perception is crucial for successful pollination and foraging.

    Chronic muscle weakness and mitochondrial dysfunction in the absence of sustained atrophy in a preclinical sepsis model

    Allison M Owen, Samir P Patel ... Hiroshi Saito
    Sepsis-induced long-term muscle weakness was reproduced using a refined murine model, which was accompanied by mitochondrial dysfunction in the absence of sustained atrophy, suggesting the promise of mitochondria-targeted post-sepsis therapies.

    Maternal spindle transfer overcomes embryo developmental arrest caused by ooplasmic defects in mice

    Nuno Costa-Borges, Katharina Spath ... Gloria Calderón
    Maternal spindle transfer is a feasible approach to enhance embryonic developmental of compromised oocytes, which can represent a new strategy for patients with forms of infertility refractory to current treatments.
