Time-Scale Shifting of Volatile Semiochemical Levels in Wild Type Lychnophora ericoides (Brazilian arnica) and Pollinator Records.

is a Brazilian folk phytomedicine from Cerrado's "campus rupestris". Its volatile organic compounds includes bisabolene-derivatives as major compounds. Herein we provide the chemical profiling of constitutive volatile sesquiterpenes from leaves, timeframe emissions surveys, and pollinators records.

Ecological Insights to Track Cytotoxic Compounds among Living Individuals and Clones of an Ex Situ Collection.

Biodiversity is key for maintenance of life and source of richness. Nevertheless, concepts such as phenotype expression are also pivotal to understand how chemical diversity varies in a living organism. Sesquiterpene pyridine alkaloids (SPAs) and quinonemethide triterpenes (QMTs) accumulate in root bark of Celastraceae plants.

An integrative omics perspective for the analysis of chemical signals in ecological interactions.

All living organisms emit, detect, and respond to chemical stimuli, thus creating an almost limitless number of interactions by means of chemical signals. Technological and intellectual advances in the last two decades have enabled chemical signals analyses at several molecular levels, including gene expression, molecular diversity, and receptor affinity. These advances have also deepened our understanding of nature to encompass interactions at multiple organism levels across different taxa.

Expressed Likelihood as Motivator: Creating Value through Engaging What's Real.

Our research tested two predictions regarding how likelihood can have motivational effects as a function of how a probability is . We predicted that describing the probability of a event that could be either A or B using the language of high likelihood ("80% A") rather than low likelihood ("20% B"), i.e.
