We assessed the resistance of six watermelon varieties based on the performance of cotton aphids and elucidated the underlying phloem-based defensive mechanisms behind the resistance/susceptibility of
We assessed the effect of chronic stress on cellular senescence, and were able to differentiate the senescence signature of physical vs social stress, both in the periphery as well as in the CNS in mi
Biological systems are robust to perturbations at both the genetic and environmental levels, although these same perturbations can elicit variation in behaviour. The interplay between functional rob
Caloric restriction (CR) prolongs lifespan, yet the mechanisms by which it does so remain poorly understood. Under CR, mice self-impose chronic cycles of 2-hour-feeding and 22-hour-fasting, raising th
