The diversity of living organisms has long been the mainstay of agricultural activity and its innovations. However, since the late nineteenth century, particularly in industrialized countries, increases in yields have been based on radically new technologies which deny the biological reality of ...

Land use change—for example, the conversion of natural habitats to agricultural or urban ecosystems—is widely recognized to influence the risk and emergence of zoonotic disease in humans1,2. However, whether such changes in risk are underpinned by pred
Biodiversity refers to the variety of life and its processes, including the variety of living organisms, the genetic differences among them, and the communities and ecosystems in which they occur. Scientists have identified about 1.9 million species alive today. They are divided into the six kingdom...
Early studies of the free-living nematode C. elegans informed us how BCL-2-regulated apoptosis in humans is regulated. However, subsequent studies showed C. elegans apoptosis has several unique features compared with human apoptosis. To date, there has b
Despite the undoubted contribution of class II peroxidases to lignin decomposition, their exclusive role in this process is debated. Indeed, substantial lignin degradation seemingly occurs in the absence of organisms producing these enzymes, as in the case of the termite gut (Li et al.2017). On ...
Each group of organisms have a particular set of characteristics that distinguish them from other organisms. Given the diversity of living things, it is easy to forget that all living things have much in common Living organisms are divided into 6 kingdoms and are grouped according to their cell...
Citrate, a ubiquitous natural compound that exists in all living cells, can be used by several enterobacterial species as a carbon and energy source. Klebsiella pneumoniae has been known to be able to grow anaerobically with citrate as the sole carbon source. During the past decade, the physiol...

South America is home to the highest freshwater fish biodiversity on Earth1,2, and the hotspot of species richness is located in the western Amazon basin (Fig. 1)3,4. The location of this hotspot is enigmatic, as it is inconsistent with the pattern observed in river systems across the wor...
