A new species of the Trichia botrytis complex from the cloud forest in Ecuador.

The paper describes a new myxomycete species, Trichia tuberculata, from the Ecuadorian cloud forest. The phylogeny constructed with nuclear 18S rDNA and mitochondrial 17S rDNA sequences indicates that the taxon is closely related to recently described species T. acetocorticola, T.

Desorption Electrospray Ionization Cyclic Ion Mobility-Mass Spectrometry Imaging for Traumatic Brain Injury Spatial Metabolomics.

Lipidomics focuses on investigating alterations in a wide variety of lipids that harness important information on metabolic processes and disease pathology. However, the vast structural diversity of lipids and the presence of isobaric and isomeric species creates serious challenges in feature identification, particularly in mass spectrometry imaging experiments that lack front-end separations. Ion mobility has emerged as a potential solution to address some of these challenges and is increasingly being utilized as part of mass spectrometry imaging platforms.

Spatial lipidomics maps brain alterations associated with mild traumatic brain injury.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a global public health problem with 50-60 million incidents per year, most of which are considered mild (mTBI) and many of these repetitive (rmTBI). Despite their massive implications, the pathologies of mTBI and rmTBI are not fully understood, with a paucity of information on brain lipid dysregulation following mild injury event(s). To gain more insight on mTBI and rmTBI pathology, a non-targeted spatial lipidomics workflow utilizing high resolution mass spectrometry imaging was developed to map brain region-specific lipid alterations in rats following injury.

The comprehensive checklist of myxomycetes of Ukraine, based on extended occurrence and reference datasets.

Background: A significant body of valuable data about the myxomycetes of Ukraine lies in a "grey zone". This encompasses undigitised historical books and articles published in languages such as Polish, French or German, as well as proceedings from local conferences, articles featured in local scientific journals and annual reports submitted to public authorities by employees of protected areas, published in Ukrainian or Russian. Yet, due to their exclusive existence in print and often the Cyrillic alphabet, these publications remain neither findable nor accessible to a wider audience.

Dataset of barcoded Reticulariaceae: ten years of DNA sequencing.

Background: As a result of the ten years (2012-2022) work under the critical revision of the genera of Reticulariaceae, a set of papers was published. Collection data of hundreds of specimens, used as a material for these studies, were provided as supplements of corresponding papers, but remained unpublished in biodiversity databases.

New Information: Here, we represent an occurrence dataset "Barcoded Reticulariaceae of the World", published in GBIF.
