Consumer-based limitations drive oak recruitment failure.
A number of North American oaks are experiencing recruitment failure, with explanatory hypotheses including a range of consumer- or resource-based limitations. Using a factorial experiment with transplanted seedlings, we demonstrate how direct and indirect consumer effects prevent recruitment by Quercus garryana, a keystone savanna species of northwestern North America. Foremost, intense herbiv...
متن کاملMotor unit recruitment and proprioceptive feedback decrease the common drive.
It has been documented that concurrently active motor units fire under the control of a common drive. That is, the firing rates show high correlation with near-zero time lag. This degree of correlation has been found to vary among muscles and among contractions performed at different force levels in the same muscle. This study provides an explanation indicating that motor units recruited during...
متن کاملRecruitment facilitation can drive alternative states on temperate reefs.
How the combination of positive and negative species interactions acts to drive community dynamics is a fundamental question in ecology. Here we explore one aspect of this question by expanding the theory of predator-mediated coexistence to include the potential role of facilitation between the predator and inferior competitor. To motivate and illustrate our simple model, we focus on sea-urchin...
متن کاملSTAT3 and mTOR: co-operating to drive HIF and angiogenesis
Our understanding of angiogenic signalling has been significantly enhanced through studies of a rare genetic disorder called Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC). TSC patients are predisposed to highly vascularised tumours, where renal angiomyolipomas produce high levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) that can be readily detected. It is well established that VEGF is driven through hyp...
متن کاملSema4D induces angiogenesis through Met recruitment by Plexin B1.
Semaphorins, a large family of membrane-bound and secreted proteins, signal through their transmembrane receptors, the plexins. Semaphorins and plexins share structural homologies with scatter factor receptors, a family of tyrosine kinase receptors for which Met is the prototype. Semaphorins have been studied primarily in the developing nervous system, where they act as repelling cues in axon g...
