However, “landscape” and “landscape level” continue to be used extensively by ecologists in the popular sense of a large expanse of space. I therefore now propose that the term “ecoscape” be used instead for this fourth level of organization. A clWilliam Z. Lidicker Jr....
The FASEB Journal publishes international, transdisciplinary research covering all fields of biology at every level of organization: atomic, molecular, cell, tissue, organ, organismic and population. While the journal strives to include research that cuts across the biological sciences, it also considers...
At the highest level of organization (Figure 7), the biosphere is the collection of all ecosystems, and it represents the zones of life on Earth. It includes land, water, and portions of the atmosphere.The Diversity of LifeThe science of biology is very broad in scope because there is a...
The FASEB Journal, FASEB’s flagship publication, is highly cited and consistently ranked among the top biology journals globally. It features transdisciplinary original research covering all fields of biology at every level of organization: atomic, molecular, cell, tissue, organ, organismic, and popul...
level of organization referred to as tissue. The micrograph that opens this chapter shows the high degree of organization among different types of cells in the tissue of the cervix. You can also see how that organization breaks down when cancer takes over the regular mitotic functioning ...
Here, we augmented GWAS data for 1,002 traits by network expansion with the purpose of studying pleiotropic cellular processes at the level of the human organism. This network expansion recovers known disease genes not associated by GWAS, identifies groups of traits under the influence of the same...
If a biology instructor wanted to make complexity a centerpiece of his or her curriculum, what is the best way to help students recognize, explain, and grapple with the characteristics of complexity in a way that is coherent and generalizable across levels of organization and different contexts?
protein level. Higher levels of proteins of the translation machinery and cytoskeleton organization in cells grown on methanol/glycerol were not met by higher transcript levels, thus indicating a post-transcriptional regulation while the significant down-regulation of transcripts for lower glycolysis and ...
Some yeasts have evolved a methylotrophic lifestyle enabling them to utilize the single carbon compound methanol as a carbon and energy source. Among them, Pichia pastoris (syn. Komagataella sp.) is frequently used for the production of heterologous prot
ontogeny, life-phases or among spatial scales at any level of biological organization. Introduction As a consequence of anthropogenic change, biotic systems must cope with multivariate alterations in natural habitats; for instance, organisms are now being exposed to increased temperature combined with ...
