INITIAL PHYLOTRANSCRIPTOMIC CONFIRMATION OF HOMOPLASTIC EVOLUTION OF THE CONSPICUOUS COLORATION AND BUFONIFORM MORPHOLOGY OF PUMPKIN-TOADLETS IN THE GENUS BRACHYCEPHALUS

The genus Brachycephalus is a fascinating group of miniaturized anurans from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, comprising the conspicuous, brightly colored pumpkin-toadlets and the cryptic flea-toads.Pumpkin-toadlets are known to contain tetrodotoxins and therefore, their bright colors may perform an aposematic function.Previous studies based on a lim

Purpose: Global warming is one of the greatest health threats of the 21st century.The ophthalmic sector contributes to the emission of greenhouse gases, thus altering the natural environment.There is currently no data on global emissions of fluorinated gases in ophthalmic surgery.This retrospective study from 2017 to 2021 aims to report the carbon

In alignment with this vision, we are excited to introduce a new initiative: Z-Ematology.This concept is designed here to bridge the gap between Generation Z and the evolving field of hematology.The new generation brings fresh perspectives and skills, especially in areas such as artificial intelligence, big data, telemedicine, and digital health te

In the realm of intelligent transportation systems, vehicle detection and classification stand as pivotal tasks.An effective traffic monitoring system should be capable of detecting, counting, and categorizing moving vehicles.Vehicle classification Latest Product Releases & Innovations – Stay Updated! is a crucial task that can offer insights int

Software reliability growth models (SRGMs) are widely used for predicting the reliability of software systems during testing and debugging.Selecting the most appropriate SRGM solutions is a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) problem that is very difficult when criteria are imprecise or ambiguous.The paper introduces a novel approach to SRGM sele
