The effect of macronutrient and micronutrient fertilization on the abundance of brown food web arthropods in a coastal tallgrass prairie in Texas by Ryan Reihart (9174179)

“…</p><p><br></p><p>Abstract:</p><p>Nitrogen and phosphorus are thought to be the most important limiting nutrients in most terrestrial ecosystems, but little is known about how other elements may limit the abundance of arthropod communities. We utilized a fully factorial fertilization experiment that manipulated macronutrients (N&P, together) and micronutrients (calcium, sodium, potassium, separately), in large 30 x 30 m² plots and sampled litter arthropods via pitfall trapping to determine the nutrients that limit this group. …”

Additional dataset for "Pump and sway: wild primates use compliant supports as a tool to augment leaping in the canopy" by Judith Janisch (15928379)

“…Additionally, we found that red colobus and black and white colobus monkeys (<i>Colobus guereza</i>) utilize tree swaying to cross large gaps, augmenting horizontal velocity at take-off and decreasing the distance between the launching support and the target. …”

Do testosterone and sex hormone-binding globulin affect cancer risk? A Mendelian randomization and bioinformatics study by Xiwen Liu (598196)

“…<p>Using Mendelian Randomization (MR) and large-scale Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) data, this study aimed to investigate the potential causative relationship between testosterone and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) levels and the onset of several cancers, including pathway enrichment analyses of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with cancer allowed for a comprehensive bioinformatics approach, which offered a deeper biological understanding of these relationships. …”
