Lethal and sublethal effects of toxicants on bumble bee populations: a modelling approach
ECOTOXICOLOGY, 29(3), 237–245.
author keywords: Hymenoptera; Neonicitinoid; Delay differential equation
MeSH headings : Agriculture; Animals; Bees / physiology; Ecosystem; Environmental Monitoring; Hazardous Substances / toxicity; Neonicotinoids / toxicity; Pesticides / toxicity; Pollination
TL;DR:
A delay differential equation (DDE) model is used, which requires fewer parameter estimations than agent-based models while affording the ability to explicitly describe the effect of larval incubation and colony history on population outcomes.

Spatiotemporal signal detection using continuous shrinkage priors
STATISTICS IN MEDICINE, 39(13), 1817–1832.
author keywords: nonstationary covariance; periodontal disease; shrinkage priors; space-time disease surveillance
TL;DR:
A Bayesian spatiotemporal model is introduced to detect problematic/diseased tooth‐sites dynamically inside the mouth for any subject obtained from large databases, and reveals improved prediction performances, compared with alternative models with usual Gaussian priors for regression parameters and conditionally autoregressive specification of the covariance structure.

MeSH headings : Animals; Drug Discovery; Humans; Neoplasms / drug therapy; Neoplasms / veterinary
TL;DR:
Clinical trials in veterinary patients with cancer provide an opportunity to evaluate a novel therapeutic in a setting that recapitulates many of the key features of human cancers, including key genomic aberrations that underly tumor development, response and resistance to treatment, and the presence of comorbidities that can affect outcomes.

Data transforming augmentation for heteroscedastic models
JOURNAL OF COMPUTATIONAL AND GRAPHICAL STATISTICS, 29(3), 659–667.
author keywords: Beta-Binomial; EM algorithm; Gibbs sampler; hierarchical model; linear mixed model; missing data
TL;DR:
A framework for the transformation-based DA is outlined, allowing augmented data to be a deterministic function of latent and observed data, and unknown parameters, and it is demonstrated simpler computations and faster convergence rates of resulting iterative algorithms, compared with those under a non-transformation-basedDA scheme.

Quantitative trait loci and differential gene expression analyses reveal the genetic basis for negatively associated β-carotene and starch content in hexaploid sweetpotato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.]
Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 133(1), 23–36.
Contributors: D. Gemenet *, G. Silva Pereira n, B. De Boeck*, J. Wood *, M. Mollinari n , B. Olukolu n, F. Diaz*, V. Mosquera *
MeSH headings : Alleles; Environment; Gene Expression Regulation, Plant; Genetic Association Studies; Ipomoea batatas / genetics; Phenotype; Plant Roots / genetics; Plant Roots / growth & development; Polyploidy; Quantitative Trait Loci / genetics; Quantitative Trait, Heritable; Starch / metabolism; beta Carotene / metabolism
TL;DR:
Two major quantitative trait loci on linkage group (LG) three (LG3) and twelve (LG12) affecting starch, β-carotene, and their correlated traits, dry matter and flesh color are identified and concluded that these two QTL regions act together in a cis and trans manner to inhibit starch biosynthesis in amyloplasts and enhance chromoplast biogenesis, carotenoid biosynthesis, and accumulation in orange-fleshed sweetpotato.
