Type-I IFNs induce GBPs and lysosomal defense in hepatocytes to control malaria Open
Plasmodium parasites undergo development and replication within the hepatocytes before infecting the erythrocytes and initiating clinical malaria. Although type-I interferons (IFNs) are known to hinder Plasmodium infection within the liver…

Winter cover crops shape early‐season predator communities and trophic interactions Open
Despite the dynamic nature of annual cropping systems, few studies have investigated how the structure of predator communities and their interactions with prey corresponds with crop seasonality. Adding winter habitat, such as cover crops, …

Beyond soil health: the trophic effects of cover crops shape predator communities Open
Maintaining habitat throughout the season in annual cropping systems provides resource stability for arthropod communities. Stabilizing resource availability should lead to diverse predatory communities and their associated ecosystem servi…
