Phylogenomic analysis of Stylops reveals the evolutionary history of a Holarctic Strepsiptera radiation parasitizing wild bees.

Holarctic Stylops is the largest genus of the enigmatic insect order Strepsiptera, twisted winged parasites. Members of Stylops are obligate endoparasites of Andrena mining bees and exhibit extreme sexual dimorphism typical of Strepsiptera. So far, molecular studies on Stylops have focused on questions on species delimitation.

Circadian clocks are endogenous oscillators present in almost all cells that drive daily rhythms in physiology and behavior. There are two mechanisms that have been proposed to explain how circadian rhythms are generated in mammalian cells: through a transcription-translation feedback loop (TTFL) and based on oxidation/reduction reactions, both of which are intrinsically stochastic and heterogeneous at the single cell level. In order to explore the emerging properties of stochastic and heterogeneous redox oscillators, we simplify a recently developed kinetic model of redox oscillations to an amplitude-phase oscillator with 'twist' (period-amplitude correlation) and subject to Gaussian noise.

Background: Patients with suspected deep venous thrombosis (DVT) are typically referred to the emergency department (ED) for immediate evaluation. However, this often contributes to ED overcrowding and necessitates round-the-clock sonographic examinations. Therefore, we implemented a regionwide care pathway for deferring diagnostic workup of suspected DVT until the following day.

Three parameters are important to characterize a circadian and in general any biological clock: period, phase and amplitude. While circadian periods have been shown to correlate with entrainment phases, and clock amplitude influences the phase response of an oscillator to pulse-like zeitgeber signals, the co-modulations of amplitude and periods, which we term , have not been studied in detail. In this paper we define two concepts: refers to amplitude-period correlations arising in ensembles of self-sustained, limit cycle clocks in the absence of external inputs, and refers to the co-modulation of an individual clock's amplitude and period in response to external zeitgebers.
