Thermosynechococcaceae as a source of thermostable C-phycocyanins: properties and molecular insights
ALGAL RESEARCH-BIOMASS BIOFUELS AND BIOPRODUCTS, 35, 223–235.
author keywords: Cyanobacteria; Phycocyanin; Thermophile; Thermostability; Phycobilisome; Natural pigment
TL;DR:
Characterisation of three thermophilic strains of cyanobacteria belonging to Thermosynechococcaceae and their utilisation as a source of thermostable C-phycocyanin reveals interesting pattern of amino acid substitutions that are present in thermophobic proteins that could have significant impact on their significantly higher thermostability.

Cross-discipline evidence principles for sustainability policy
Game, E. T., Tallis, H., Olander, L., Alexander, S. M., Busch, J., Cartwright, N., … Sutherland, W. J. (2018, September). NATURE SUSTAINABILITY, Vol. 1, pp. 452–454.
TL;DR:
Evidence-based approaches to sustainability challenges must draw on knowledge from the environment, development and health communities to be practicable and require an approach to evidence that is broader and less hierarchical than the standards often applied within disciplines.

Dominance-diversity relationships in ant communities differ with invasion
GLOBAL CHANGE BIOLOGY, 24(10), 4614–4625.
Contributors: X. Arnan *, A. Andersen *, H. Gibb *, C. Parr *, N. Sanders *, R. Dunn n , E. Angulo *, F. Baccaro *
