Navigating novel resources: A field test of the effects of small mammal personality on dispersal of Quercus seeds by Ivy Yen, Alessio Mortelliti

“…Personality may be critical to consider in the context of novel seeds as inexperienced individuals may default to specific behavioral tendencies and foraging strategies when deciding if and how to utilize resources. In a large‐scale field experiment in central Maine (USA), we examined seed selection behavior in two species of small mammals (Peromyscus maniculatus and Myodes gapperi) for eight species of Quercus acorns—two of which are native to Maine and six of which are novel to our populations but expected to migrate northward. …”

Near-source wastewater surveillance of SARS-CoV-2, norovirus, influenza virus and RSV across five different sites in the UK. by Jay C Bullen, Mina Mohaghegh, Fatima Tahir, Charlotte Hammer, Jacob Sims, Frederico Myers, Lucas Eisinger, Ali Reza Kasmati, Claire F Trant

“…The key findings are (1) near-source wastewater detections were linked to local events (staff sickness, enhanced cleaning, changing populations); (2) wastewater detections decreased in the order norovirus GII > norovirus GI > SARS-CoV-2 ≈ influenza A ≈ RSV A > influenza B ≈ RSV B; (3) correlation between near-source wastewater data and national surveillance data increases as a function of catchment size and viral prevalence (examples include the SARS-CoV-2 BA.4/BA.5 variant peak at a museum and wastewater tracking the winter norovirus season); (4) strong weekday periodicity in near-source wastewater SARS-CoV-2 detections, with the correlation against COVID-19 case numbers increasing when modelling variable lag times between faecal shedding onset and clinical diagnosis (R2 = 0.45 increases to 0.84-0.86); (5) a log-linear relationship between the frequency of wastewater SARS-CoV-2 detection and log(catchment size⋅viral prevalence) (R2 = 0.6914-0.9066). …”

A spatial matrix factorization method to characterize ecological assemblages as a mixture of unobserved sources: An application to fish eDNA surveys by Letizia Lamperti, Olivier François, David Mouillot, Laëtitia Mathon, Théophile Sanchez, Camille Albouy, Loïc Pellissier, Stéphanie Manel

“…We present a spatial matrix factorization method that identifies optimal eDNA sample assemblages—called pools—assuming that taxonomic unit composition is based on a fixed number of unknown sources. These sources, in turn, represent taxonomic units sharing similar habitat properties or characteristics. …”

Development and validation of microwave-assisted extraction for phenolic compound profiling in diverse oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus spp.) sourced from various geographical regions by M Umar Harun, Miguel Palma, Widiastuti Setyaningsih

“…Seven phenolic compounds—p-coumaric acid, t-cinnamic acid, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, p-hydroxybenzoic acid, quercetin-3-glucoside, gallic acid, and vanillic acid—were effectively extracted and quantified using ultra-performance liquid chromatography with photodiode array detection. Application of this method across oyster mushroom samples from different geographical sources revealed significant variation in phenolic compound concentrations, with Pleurotus pulmonarius exhibiting the highest level of gallic acid at 433.90 ± 7.77 μg g−1 (DM) and Pleurotus ostreatus var. …”
