The biocide tributyltin reduces the accumulation of testosterone as fatty acid esters in the mud snail (Ilyanassa obsoleta)
ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH PERSPECTIVES, 111(4), 426–430.
author keywords: acyltransferase; fatty acid esters; Ilyanassa obsoleta; imposex; invertebrate endocrinology; mud snail; testosterone; tributyltin
MeSH headings : Animals; Disorders of Sex Development / chemically induced; Environmental Exposure; Esters; Fatty Acids / metabolism; Female; Male; Snails / physiology; Testosterone / blood; Testosterone / metabolism; Trialkyltin Compounds / adverse effects
TL;DR:
Results indicate that TBT elevates free testosterone levels in snails by decreasing the production or retention of testosterone-fatty acid esters, and may be a co-contributor to the testosterone fatty esterification process or a factor in the enhanced hydrolysis of the testosterone- fatty acid pool.

Response of black bears to forest management in the southern Appalachian mountains
JOURNAL OF WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT, 67(4), 692–705.
author keywords: black bear; forest management; GIS; habitat change; habitat suitability index; home range; management indicator species; North Carolina; Pisgah National Forest; timber harvest; Ursus americanus
TL;DR:
Forest management positively affected some aspects of bear habitat but had an overall negative effect on habitat suitability in the southern Appalachians, where soft mast is limiting, however, trade-offs between overall habitats suitability and improved productivity of soft mast may be warranted.

2003 review
Time scale of eutherian evolution estimated without assuming a constant rate of molecular evolution
[Review of ]. GENES & GENETIC SYSTEMS, 78(4), 267–283.
author keywords: Bayesian method; divergence times; variation of evolutionary
MeSH headings : Animals; Bayes Theorem; Evolution, Molecular; Fossils; Genetic Variation; Humans; Mathematics; Models, Biological; Models, Genetic; Phylogeny; Probability; Time Factors
TL;DR:
This Bayesian method not only takes account of the variation of molecular evolutionary rate among lineages and among genes, but it also incorporates fossil evidence via constraints on node times and is expected to increase the accuracy of divergence time estimates.

A diffusion-based theory of organism dispersal in heterogeneous populations
AMERICAN NATURALIST, 161(3), 441–458.
author keywords: diffusion; heterogeneity; variability; model; movement; dispersal
MeSH headings : Animal Migration; Animals; Diffusion; Models, Biological; Movement; Population Dynamics
TL;DR:
A general theory of organism movement in heterogeneous populations that can explain the leptokurtic movement distributions commonly measured in nature and defines population heterogeneity in movement behavior as the existence of different movement states and among‐individual variability in the time individuals spend in these states.

TL;DR:
Two estimates of acute exposure water quality guidance for the protection of freshwater mussels (CMC(FM) and CCC( FM) are derived by a recalculation of the CMC after adding freshwater mussel GMAVs to the U.S. EPA data set.

The genetic architecture of odor-guided behavior in Drosophila: epistasis and the transcriptome
NATURE GENETICS, 35(2), 180–184.
MeSH headings : Animals; Biotransformation; Drosophila melanogaster / genetics; Epistasis, Genetic; Gene Expression Regulation; Odorants; Smell / physiology; Transcription, Genetic
TL;DR:
Quantitative complementation tests of mutations at coregulated genes with the smi mutations showed that in most cases (67%) epistatic interactions for olfactory behavior mirrored epistasis at the level of transcription, thus identifying new candidate genes regulating olfaction behavior.
