Dataset for: The costs and benefits of multicellular group formation in algae by Stefania Elisavet Kapsetaki (6384695)

“…We found that in the facultatively multicellular algae <i>Chlorella sorokiniana</i>: (1) the presence of the flagellate <i>Ochromonas danica</i> or the crustacean <i>Daphnia magna</i> leads to the formation of multicellular groups; (2) the formation of multicellular groups reduces predation by <i>O. danica</i>, but not by the larger predator <i>D. magna</i>; (3) under conditions of relatively low light intensity, where competition for light is greater, multicellular groups grow slower than single cells; (4) in the absence of live predators, the proportion of cells in multicellular groups decreases at a rate that does not vary with light intensity. …”

Excess Winter Mortality and Cold Temperatures in a Subtropical City, Guangzhou, China by Chun-Quan Ou (45848)

“…We found a significant negative correlation of annual excess winter mortality with average winter temperature (r_s=-0.738, P=0.037), but not with air pollution levels. A 1 °C decrease in monthly mean temperature was associated with an increase of 1.38% (95%CI:0.34%-2.40%) and 0.88% (95%CI:0.11%-1.64%) in monthly mortality at lags of 0-1 month, respectively.…”

Automated size selection for short cell-free DNA fragments enriches for circulating tumor DNA and improves error correction during next generation sequencing by Sabine Hellwig (122242)
