Higher immunocompetence is associated with higher genetic diversity in feral honey bee colonies (Apis mellifera)
CONSERVATION GENETICS, 18(3), 659–666.
author keywords: Microsatellites; Antimicrobial peptides; Defensin; Hymenoptaecin; Management
TL;DR:
It is hypothesized that high genetic variability provides the raw material upon which natural selection acts and generates adaptive genotypes in unmanaged populations and that feral populations could be useful sources of genetic variation to use in breeding programs that aim to improve honey bee health.

Spatial prediction of crystalline defects observed in molecular dynamic simulations of plastic damage
JOURNAL OF APPLIED STATISTICS, 44(10), 1761–1784.
author keywords: Materials science; uncertainty quantification; computer emulation; MCMC; multivariate
TL;DR:
It is found that CAR and DWT yield accurate results but fail to capture extreme defects, yet PCA better captures defect structure, and the methods are applied to simulation of copper atoms with twin wall and dislocation loop defects.

Marine snow formation by the toxin-producing diatom, Pseudo-nitzschia australis
HARMFUL ALGAE, 61, 23–30.
author keywords: Marine snow; Domoic acid; Pseudo-nitzschia; Toxin flux; Food web
TL;DR:
This study confirms that MS functions as a major vector for toxin flux to depth, that Pseudo-nitzschia -derived aggregates should be considered ‘toxic snow’ for MS-associated organisms, and that effects of MS toxicity on interactions with aggregate-associated microbes and zooplankton consumers warrant further consideration.
