Altitude’s Impact on the Rhizosphere Prokaryotic Communities of the Cretan Endemic Plant <i>Petromarula pinnata</i> (L.) A.DC. by Rafaela Stagiopoulou, Ifigeneia Mellidou, Nikos Krigas, Effimia M. Papatheodorou

“…At lower altitude, functions related to quorum sensing among microbes were overrepresented, while at the higher altitude, the functions were more related to energy production and transfer. The results of this research contribute to the ex situ and in situ protection of the vulnerable populations of <i>P. pinnata</i> and provide information for understanding the effect of altitude on processes in the rhizosphere of a threatened local endemic species of Crete studied in its original habitats.…”

Numerical Simulation of Distribution Characteristics of Hydraulic Fish Habitat Index in 90° Spur Dike Areas by JIANG Li, DENG Xiaolong, ZHONG Liang, CHEN Jingyuan, ZHONG Xueyi, LIU Xiangqian, FU Qiang

“…The study of fish habitat in spur dike areas is of great significance to the ecological protection of rivers.In this paper,the distribution characteristics of the hydraulic fish habitat index in a spur dike area are discussed by a three-dimensional (3D) mathematical model for water flow.The results reveal that ① the flow velocity increases with the Froude number Fr;the width of the back flow area behind the dike decreases gradually,and the main flow area changes from rapidly varied flow to gradually varied flow and gradually returns to uniform flow.② The flow velocity gradient G in the main flow and back flow areas is small;the areas with G&gt;2 are mainly concentrated on the left and right banks of the water channel and near the spur dike head,and on the cross-section,G declines as Fr grows.③ The distribution characteristics of the kinetic energy gradient M on the section of the spur dike from upstream to downstream are similar to those of G.The high-value areas of M appear on the right bank of the water channel and in the section with the relative channel width B⁺ of 0.25~0.40 near the spur dike head,but M is small on the left bank of the water channel and has little change along the way.④ With the increase in Fr,the velocity suitability S_u in the upstream of the spur dike decreases,while S_u at the spur dike and in the downstream cross-section of the spur dike increases.S_u of the back flow area in the downstream of the spur dike is small,generally not more than 0.3,while S_u in the main flow area may exceed 0.8,which indicates that the spawning habitat of fish in this area is better.The research results can provide a reference for the protection of fish resources in spur dike areas and the construction of ecological waterway projects.…”

Hypotheses and evidence related to intense sweeteners and effects on appetite and body weight changes: A scoping review of reviews. by Annhild Mosdøl, Gunn Elisabeth Vist, Camilla Svendsen, Hubert Dirven, Inger Therese Laugsand Lillegaard, Gro Haarklou Mathisen, Trine Husøy

“…Observed associations between consumption of diet foods and obesity have sparked controversy over whether intense sweeteners may promote weight gain, despite their negligible energy contribution. We conducted a scoping review of reviews, to obtain an overview of hypotheses, research approaches and features of the evidence on intense sweeteners' potential relationships to appetite and weight changes. …”
