Inheritance of steroid-independent male sexual behavior in male offspring of B6D2F1 mice
HORMONES AND BEHAVIOR, 80, 132–138.
author keywords: Steroid-independent male sexual behavior; B6D2F1 mouse; Behavioral genetics; APP; Tau; Synaptophysin
MeSH headings : Amyloid beta-Protein Precursor / genetics; Animals; Female; Gene Expression / genetics; Gonadal Steroid Hormones / physiology; Humans; Male; Mice; Mice, Inbred Strains; Phenotype; Preoptic Area / physiology; Sexual Behavior; Sexual Behavior, Animal / physiology; Steroids; Synaptophysin / genetics; tau Proteins / genetics
TL;DR:
The specific goals of this study were to determine whether steroid-independent male sexual behavior was a heritable trait by determining if it was dependent upon the behavioral phenotype of the B6D2F1 sire, and whether the differential expression of APP, tau, and synaptophysin in the medial preoptic area was similar to those found in their male offspring.

Artificial selection on chill-coma recovery time in Drosophila melanogaster: Direct and correlated responses to selection
JOURNAL OF THERMAL BIOLOGY, 59, 77–85.
author keywords: Cross-tolerance; Chill-coma recovery; Drosophila melanogaster; Artificial selection
MeSH headings : Acclimatization; Animal Nutritional Physiological Phenomena; Animals; Breeding; Cold Temperature; Cold-Shock Response; Drosophila melanogaster / genetics; Drosophila melanogaster / physiology; Female; Male; Phenotype; Selection, Genetic; Stress, Physiological
TL;DR:
The results suggest that although artificial selection has dramatically altered chill-coma recovery time, the correlated response to selection on other stress response phenotypes has been negligible, and the lack of a correlated response suggests that chill- COMA recovery time in these selection lines is likely genetically independent from measures of cold survivorship tested here.

Abundance estimates to inform butterfly management: double-observer versus distance sampling
JOURNAL OF INSECT CONSERVATION, 20(3), 505–514.
author keywords: Butterfly; Abundance estimation; Hairstreak; Double observer; Distance sampling; Conservation; Management; Endangered species
TL;DR:
A novel comparison of two methods that permit the incorporation of detection probabilities into abundance estimates, distance sampling and double-observer surveys is presented, suggesting that double-OBserver is a reasonable alternative method to use for estimating detection probability and abundance for rare species that cannot be surveyed with other, more commonly used methods.

A comparative analysis of rapid antennation behavior in four species of Odontomachus trap-jaw ants
INSECTES SOCIAUX, 63(2), 265–270.
author keywords: Antennal dueling; Antennal boxing; Antennal drumming; Dominance; Aggression
TL;DR:
The exchange of rapid antennal strikes between individuals is a behavior exhibited by many social hymenopterans, largely in dominance contexts within the nest and in aggressive contexts towards non-nestmates, and its potential utility as a model for understanding aggressive behaviors both inside and outside of the nest is discussed.

MeSH headings : Animals; Anti-Bacterial Agents / pharmacology; Apoptosis / drug effects; Bacteria / drug effects; Bacteria / genetics; DNA, Bacterial / genetics; DNA, Bacterial / metabolism; Intestinal Mucosa / metabolism; Intestines / microbiology; Intestines / pathology; MAP Kinase Kinase Kinases / genetics; MAP Kinase Kinase Kinases / metabolism; Mice; Mice, Inbred C57BL; Mice, Knockout; Myeloid Differentiation Factor 88 / deficiency; Myeloid Differentiation Factor 88 / genetics; Myeloid Differentiation Factor 88 / metabolism; Necrosis; Paneth Cells / drug effects; Paneth Cells / metabolism; Paneth Cells / pathology; RNA, Messenger / metabolism; Reactive Oxygen Species / metabolism; Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction; Receptor-Interacting Protein Serine-Threonine Kinases / genetics; Receptor-Interacting Protein Serine-Threonine Kinases / metabolism; Signal Transduction; Toll-Like Receptors / metabolism; Up-Regulation
TL;DR:
It is found that depletion of gut bacteria or myeloid differentiation factor 88 (Myd88), a mediator of bacteria-derived cell signaling, reduced ROS but did not block Paneth cell loss, suggesting that gut bacteria are the cause of ROS accumulation but bacteria-induced ROS are not the cause.

A phylogenetic analysis utilizing a comprehensive dataset of early paracrocodylomorphs and including seven new characters and numerous modifications to characters culled from the literature recovers Carnufex carolinensis as one of the most basal members of Crocodylomorpha, in a polytomy with two other large bodied taxa.
