Purpose: To investigate the influence of upper body (UB) strength qualities and UB strength training on the performance of high-intensity running and jumping actions and to identify gaps and recommendations for future research.
Methods: A systematic search using the PRISMA Scoping Review protocol was conducted in February 2024 using PubMed, Scopus, and ICTRP. Studies eligible for inclusion were those that reported associations between UB or trunk maximal strength qualities (e.
Background: Diaphorina citri is an insect vector of "Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus" (CLas), the gram-negative bacterial pathogen associated with citrus greening disease. Control measures rely on pesticides with negative impacts on the environment, natural ecosystems, and human and animal health. In contrast, gene-targeting methods have the potential to specifically target the vector species and/or reduce pathogen transmission.

Social play is a highly rewarding activity seen across mammalian species that is vital for neurobehavioural development. Dysfunctions in social play are seen across psychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders positing the importance of understanding the neurobiological mechanisms underlying social play. A multitude of neurotransmitter systems have been implicated in social play, with the present study focused on the role of dopamine, specifically the dopamine D1 receptor.
