The First Workers of the Ant Camponotus obscuripes Are a Different Allometric Morph with Relatively Long Antennae to Communicate with Other Larger Colony Members by Saori Watanabe, Mamoru Terayama, Ryota Kawauchiya, Natsuki Ogusu, Yusuke Fujita, Syunta Mikami, Yuuka Murakami, Eisuke Hasegawa

“…We report here that, in the ant Camponotus obscuripes Mayr, the allometric rules of the nanitics are different from those of other workers in mature colonies, suggesting that the nanitics constitute an independent caste as with soldiers or queens in other species. In addition, the antennae of the nanitics show the minimum absolute length-difference with the mother queen compared to the other traits measured. …”

RNA binding protein ALYREF regulates ferroptosis to facilitate LUAD growth and metastasis via promoting SLC7A11 mRNA stability by Yanni Chen, Ting Zhao, Hao Chen, Jun Chen, Weili Han

“…ALYREF mainly binds to the 3’UTR region of SLC7A11 mRNA, increasing the mRNA stability of SLC7A11 and reducing intracellular Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) and Methylene diphenyl diamine (MDA) thereby inhibiting ferroptosis and eventually promoting the proliferation and metastasis of LUAD cells. …”

A Survey of Wild Indigenous <i>Cryptostylis ovata</i> Orchid Populations in Western Australia Reveals Spillover of Exotic Viruses by Stephen Wylie, Hua Li, Shu Hui Koh

“…One BYMV isolate from <i>C. ovata</i> also exhibited 99% nucleotide identity with strains isolated from the exotic leguminous crop <i>Lupinus angustifolius</i> in Western Australia, suggesting possible spillover to indigenous species from this source. This study with <i>C. ovata</i> highlights the probable role of invasive weeds and exotic crops as sources of exotic virus spillovers to indigenous plants.…”
