Collection and Characterization of Wood Decay Fungal Strains for Developing Pure Mycelium Mats Open
Wood decay fungi (WDF) seem to be particularly suitable for developing myco-materials due to their mycelial texture, ease of cultivation, and lack of sporification. This study focused on a collection of WDF strains that were later used to …

Subjective resource value affects aggressive behavior independently of resource-holding-potential and color morphs in male common wall lizard Open
Game theory models predict the outcome of a dyadic contest to depend on opponents’ asymmetries in three main traits: resource-holding potential (RHP), resource value (RV) and aggressiveness. Using male common wall lizards Podarcis muralis …
