... on their flight performance ( Combes et al., 2010 ), reducing the prey capture success ( Combes et al., 2010 ) and increasing the risk of being captured by predators ( Rodd et al., 1980 ). The results of the present study suggest that some parts of the wings may be adapted to be more damage-tolerant than others...

Investigation of feet functions of large ruminants with a decoupled model of equivalent mechanism
Open Access
Journal:
Biology Open
Biol Open (2017) 6 (4): 407–414.
Published: 15 April 2017
...Qun Zhang; Kun Xu; Xilun Ding ABSTRACT Cloven hooves of ruminants adapt to diverse terrain, provide propulsive force and support the whole body during movement in natural environments. To reveal how the feet ensure terrain adaptability by choosing the proper configurations and terrain conditions...

Published: 14 September 2016
... flightless or wingless insects adapt to fit biotic and abiotic challenges in the complex processes of natural selection. To understand what might cause the glycogen reserve differences between these two aphid strains, we analyzed a key enzyme in the glycogenesis ( glycogen synthase , GS ) pathway. RT-QPCR...

The primary cilium is a self-adaptable, integrating nexus for mechanical stimuli and cellular signaling
Open Access
Journal:
Biology Open
Biol Open (2015) 4 (12): 1733–1738.
Published: 24 November 2015
...An M. Nguyen; Y.-N. Young; Christopher R. Jacobs ABSTRACT Mechanosensation is crucial for cells to sense and respond to mechanical signals within their local environment. While adaptation allows a sensor to be conditioned by stimuli within the environment and enables its operation in a wide range...
