Microarray blood testing: Pros & cons.
Microarray blood testing: Pros & cons. Biologicals. 2010 Jan 13; Authors: Petrik J Blood donation screening represents rather a unique set of blood grouping-related and pathogen detection assays. We are confronted with continuously growing numbers of testing targets. Ideally, th...

Use of Land Facets to Plan for Climate Change: Conserving the Arenas, Not the Actors.
Authors: Beier P, Brost B Even under the most optimistic scenarios, during the next century human-caused climate change will threaten many wild populations and species. The most useful conservation response is to enlarge and link protected areas to support range shifts by plants and a...

Plasticity in physiological traits in conifers: Implications for response to climate change in the western U.S.
Authors: Grulke NE Population variation in ecophysiological traits of four co-occurring montane conifers was measured on a large latitudinal gradient to quantitatively assess their potential for response to environmental change. White fir (Abies concolor) had the highest variab...

The direct impact of climate change on regional labor productivity.
This study applies physiological evidence about effects of heat, climate guidelines for safe work environments, climate modeling, and global distributions of working populations to estimate the impact of 2 climate scenarios on future labor productivity. In most regions, climate c...

Soil Microbial Community Responses to Multiple Experimental Climate Change Drivers.
Authors: Castro HF, Classen AT, Austin EE, Norby RJ, Schadt CW Researchers agree that climate change factors such as rising atmospheric [CO2] and warming will likely interact to modify ecosystem properties and processes. However, the response of the microbial communities which regu...
Indirect effects of temperature on stink bug fitness via maintenance of gut-associated symbionts.
Authors: Prado SS, Hung KY, Daugherty MP, Almeida RP Impacts of climate change on organisms are already apparent, with effects ranging from the individual to ecosystem scales. For organisms engaged in mutualisms, climate may affect population performance directly or indirectly thr...
