Ethylene: A Key Regulatory Molecule in Plants
(2017)
Ethylene is a simple gaseous phytohormone with multiple roles in regulation of metabolism at cellular, molecular, and whole plant level. It influences performance of plants under optimal and stressful environments by ...
Fetal Therapies and Maternal-Fetal Tolerance
(2016)
The ability to diagnose and treat genetic diseases before birth represents one of the foremost breakthroughs of modern medicine. While fetal surgery has advanced in the last several decades, the prospect of applying ...
From Is to Ought: The Place of Normative Models in the Study of Human Thought
(2016)
In the study of human thinking, two main research questions can be asked: “Descriptive Q: What is human thinking like? Normative Q: What ought human thinking be like?” For decades, these two questions have dominated the ...
From Ecology to Brain Development: Bridging Separate Evolutionary Paradigms
(2018)
The nervous system is the product of biological evolution and is shaped by the interplay between extrinsic factors determining the ecology of animals, and by intrinsic processes that dictate the developmental rules that ...
From Genes to Species: Novel Insights from Metagenomics
(2016)
The majority of microbes in many environments are considered “as yet uncultured” and were traditionally considered inaccessible for study through the microbiological gold standard of pure culture. The emergence of metagenomic ...
Frontiers in Brain Based Therapeutic Interventions and Biomarker Research in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
(2016)
Developmental neuroscience research is on the cusp of unprecedented advances in the understanding of how variations in brain structure and function within neural circuits confer risk for symptoms of childhood psychiatric ...
Frontiers in Earth Science - Editor's Choice 2017
(2018)
2017 has been an exciting year for our innovative open access journal Frontiers in Earth Science: many new articles have been published and are now indexed in Web of Science (ESCI), new sections have opened for submissions ...
Functional Imaging in living Plants - Cell Biology meets Physiology
(2015)
The study of plant cell physiology is currently experiencing a profound transformation. Novel techniques allow dynamic in vivo imaging with subcellular resolution, covering a rapidly growing range of plant cell physiology. ...
Functional Characterization of Insect Chemoreceptors: Receptivity Range, Expression and Evolution
(2016)
Olfaction and taste are of critical importance to insects and other animals, since vital behaviours, including mate, food and host seeking, as well as predator and toxin avoidance, are guided by chemosensory cues. Mate and ...
Function of Renal Sympathetic Nerves
(2017)
Sympathetic overactivity is associated with the development of hypertension. Renal denervation (RDN) prevents or delays hypertension in a variety of animal models, which laid the groundwork for the introduction of RDN as ...
