description: Pesticide application is an important stressor to non-target species and can profoundly affect ecosystem functioning. Debates continue on the choice of agricultural practices regarding their environmental impact, and organic farming is considered less detrimental compared to conventional practices. Nevertheless, comparative studies on the impacts of both agricultural approaches on the genetic adaptation of non-target species are lacking. We assessed to what extent organic and conventional agriculture elicit local genetic adaptation of populations of a non-target aquatic species, Daphnia magna. We tested for genetic differences in sensitivity of different D. magna populations (n = 7), originating from ponds surrounded by conventional and organic agriculture as well as nature reserves, to pesticides used either in conventional (chlorpyrifos) or organic agriculture (deltamethrin and copper sulfate). The results indicate that D. magna populations differentially adapt to local pesticide use. Populations show increased resistance to chlorpyrifos as the percentage of conventional agriculture in the surrounding landscape increases, whereas populations from organic agriculture sites are more resistant to deltamethrin. While organic agriculture is considered less harmful for non-target species than conventional, both types of agriculture shape the evolution of pesticide resistance in non-target species in a specific manner, reflecting the differences in selection pressure.

Material
MALAYSIA: MSL BRY012a, Kampung Kuala Temoyong, Langkawi, colony encrusting interior of large gastropod shell.
Description
Colony encrusting, multiserial, unilamellar or multilamellar. Ancestrula and early astogeny not observed. Autozooids subovoidal, about twice as long as wide, 0.34–0.40 mm long by 0.18–0.40 mm wide; zooidal boundaries marked by a narrow fissure; opesia occupying one-half to two-thirds of frontal surface, pear-shaped, generally pinched slightly at about two-thirds of length; cryptocyst well developed proximally and shelf-like, tapering distally, pustulose; gymnocyst visible proximally and proximolaterally, narrow, tapering distally; spines lacking. Ovicells not observed in studied Malaysian material but elsewhere described as small, partly immersed in distal zooid and with cap-like ooecia (e.g., Tilbrook 1998). Avicularia interzooidal, directed distally, small, about 0.06–0.09 mm long by 0.04–0.05 mm wide, present at proximal corner or less often at two proximolateral corners of most autozooids; rostrum rounded, a little longer but narrower than opesia.
Remarks
Large vicarious avicularia sometimes develop in this species (e.g., Tilbrook 1998: fig. 2e) but were not seen in the studied colony from Langkawi. Antropora minor is widely distributed in the tropics, occurring in the Caribbean, South Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans, including East Sumbawa, Malaysia (Tilbrook 1998).

description: Agent-based models (ABMs) provide an intuitive and powerful framework for studying social dynamics by modeling the interactions of individuals from the perspective of each individual. In addition to simulating and forecasting the dynamics of ABMs, the demand to solve optimization problems to support, for example, decision-making processes naturally arises. Most ABMs, however, are non-deterministic, high-dimensional dynamical systems, so objectives defined in terms of their behavior are computationally expensive. In particular, if the number of agents is large, evaluating the objective functions often becomes prohibitively time-consuming. We consider data-driven reduced models based on the Koopman generator to enable the efficient solution of multi-objective optimization problems involving ABMs. In a first step, we show how to obtain data-driven reduced models of non-deterministic dynamical systems (such as ABMs) that depend potentially nonlinearly on control inputs. We then use them in the second step as surrogate models to solve multi-objective optimal control problems. We first illustrate our approach using the example of a voter model, where we compute optimal controls to steer the agents to a predetermined majority, and then using the example of an epidemic ABM, where we compute optimal containment strategies in a prototypical situation. We demonstrate that the surrogate models effectively approximate the Pareto-optimal points of the ABM dynamics by comparing the surrogate-based results with test points, where the objectives are evaluated using the ABM. Our results show that when objectives are defined by the dynamic behavior of ABMs, data-driven surrogate models support or even enable the solution of multi-objective optimization problems.

description: Evolution, the change in gene frequencies within populations, is a process of genetically based modification by descent, providing the raw material essential for adaptation to environmental change. Therefore, it is crucial that we understand evolutionary processes if we aim for a sustainable planet. We here contribute to this development by describing examples of contemporary, rapid evolutionary changes of concern for sustainability, specifically highlighting the global spread of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) and how the evolutionary toolbox allowed tracking the origins and evolution of SARS-CoV-2 in real time and predicting potential future outbreaks. We also consider how urban development accelerates evolutionary processes such as altered phenotypic and physiological changes and the spread of infectious and zoonotic diseases. We show the importance of evolutionary concepts and techniques for public-health decision making. Many examples of the potential of evolutionary insights contributing to crucial sustainability challenges exist, including infectious and zoonotic diseases, ecosystem and human health, and conservation of natural resources. We thus join recent calls advocating for a stronger collaboration between evolutionary biologists and the sustainability community, increasing interdisciplinarity and the awareness about the knowledge of evolutionary processes for decision making and policies.

description: In this paper, we introduce an enactive account of loving as participatory sense-making inspired by the “I love to you” of the feminist philosopher Luce Irigaray. Emancipating from the fusionist concept of romantic love, which understands love as unity, we conceptualise loving as an existential engagement in a dialectic of encounter, in continuous processes of becoming-in-relation. In these processes, desire acquires a certain prominence as the need to know (the other, the relation, oneself) more. We build on Irigaray’s account of love to present a phenomenology of loving interactions and then our enactive account. Finally, we draw some implications for ethics. These concern language, difference, vulnerability, desire, and self-transformation.

description: The best-worst method is an increasingly popular approach to solving multi-criteria decision-making problems. However, the usual prioritisation techniques may result in an ordinal violation if the best (worst) alternative identified in the first step does not receive the highest (lowest) weight. The current paper gives two sufficient conditions for the logarithmic least squares method, applied to an incomplete best-worst method matrix, to guarantee the lack of ordinal violations. Our results provide another powerful argument for using the logarithmic least squares priorities in the best-worst method.

Material
MALAYSIA: MSL BRY013, Balik Pulau, Penang, small colony washed ashore on a sandy beach.
Description
Colony erect, articulated, forming a tiny dichotomously branched bush composed of quadriserial internodes with 4–7 autozooids each linked by chitinous joints, basally rooted by kenozooids.Autozooids slender, about 0.38–0.50 mm long by 0.13–0.15 mm wide; opesia occupying about three-quarters of surface, elongate elliptical in shape; gymnocyst widest proximally, tapering distally along sides of zooid, spines lacking; cryptocyst forming a slightly sunken, inwardly sloping crescent at proximal end of opesia, smooth-surfaced; various pores and depressions visible through opesia in basal walls of zooids, plus a low spinose, curved ridge on distal interior wall of zooid (Fig. 7C); ovicell not observed in studied material but described elsewhere as endozooidal (Winston et al. 2014). Avicularia tiny (Fig. 7E), located as pairs on left and right proximolateral gymnocyst of autozooids, inclined to plane of cryptocyst and directed proximally; rostrum rounded; cross-bar calcified, straight; opesia smaller than rostrum, with a slightly depressed cryptocyst; countersunk pore positioned on autozooidal gymnocyst beneath avicularium.
Remarks
This species has often been regarded as a junior synonym of Nellia tenella (Lamarck, 1816), but following Winston et al. (2014) we here retain Busk’s species name oculata pending a revision of Lamouroux’s material to test the synonymy. Ostensibly, Nellia oculata has a wide tropical and subtropical distribution, as well as a long fossil record, but there is need for a taxonomic re-evaluation using molecular data.

description: Automated glycan assembly (AGA) affords collections of well-defined glycans in a short amount of time. We systematically analyzed how parameters connected to the solid support affect the AGA outcome for three different glycan sequences. We showed that, while loading and reaction scale did not significantly influence the AGA outcome, the chemical nature of the linker dramatically altered the isolated yields. We identified that the major determinants of AGA yields are cleavage from the solid support and post-AGA purification steps.

description: Charge stripes have been widely observed in many different types of unconventional superconductors, holding varying periods ($\mathcal{P}$) and intensities. However, a general understanding on the interplay between charge stripes and superconducting properties is still incomplete. Here, using large-scale unbiased numerical simulations on a general inhomogeneous Hubbard model, we discover that the charge-stripe period $\mathcal{P}$, which is variable in different real material systems, could dictate the pairing symmetries -- $d$ wave for $\mathcal{P} \ge 4$, $s$ and $d$ waves for $\mathcal{P} \le 3$. In the latter, tuning hole doping and charge-stripe amplitude can trigger a $d$-$s$ wave transition and magnetic-correlation shift, where the $d$-wave state converts to a pairing-density wave state, competing with the $s$ wave. These interesting phenomena arise from an unusual stripe-induced selection rule of pairing symmetries around on-stripe region and within inter-stripe region, giving rise to a critical point of $\mathcal{P}=3$ for the phase transition. In general, our findings offer new insights into the differences in the superconducting pairing mechanisms across many $\mathcal{P}$-dependent superconducting systems, highlighting the decisive role of charge stripe.

description: Streptococcus suis, an emerging zoonotic pathogen, causes invasive diseases in pigs, including sepsis, meningitis, endocarditis, pneumonia, and arthritis. Importantly, similar pathologies are reported in human S. suis infections. In previous work, the locus SSU0375 of S. suis strain P1.7 had been identified as a conditionally essential gene by intrathecal experimental infection of pigs with a transposon library of S. suis. This study aimed to identify the function of the corresponding gene product. Bioinformatics analysis and homology modeling revealed sequence and structural homologies with the Streptococcus pneumoniae mid-cell-anchored protein Z (MapZ) that is involved in cell division in different bacterial species. Indeed, depletion of this locus in S. suis strain 10 revealed a growth defect as compared to the wild type. Electron microscopy analysis of the corresponding mutant demonstrated morphological growth defects as compared to the wild-type strain, including an irregular cell shape and size as well as mispositioned division septa. Light microscopy and subsequent quantitative image analysis confirmed these morphological alterations. In the genetic rescue strain, the wild-type phenotype was completely restored. In summary, we proposed that SSU0375 or the corresponding locus in strain 10 encode for a S. suis MapZ homolog that guides septum positioning as evidenced for other members of the Streptococci family.

Description
Colony erect, weakly mineralized, forming a luxuriant bush comprising bifurcating branches with zooids in two alternating rows opening on one side of branch, purple-brown in colour.Autozooids slender, about 0.48–0.56 mm long by 0.15–0.18 mm wide; opesia occupying almost all of frontal surface, squared-off distally; operculum absent; gymnocyst forming sides and back walls of zooids; spines and cryptocyst lacking; ovicell globular, large and prominent (Fig. 8B), attached to inner distal angle of zooid by a short peduncle. Avicularia lacking.
Remarks
Considerable attention has been focused on Bugula neritina as a source of the natural product bryostatin. Molecular studies have recently shown that morphologically defined, B. neritina is a complex comprising at least three separate species (Fehlauer-Ale et al. 2014).The complex is very widely distributed in tropical, subtropical and even temperate waters, and is an important fouling taxon dispersed anthropogenically (e.g., Ryland et al. 2011).

description: The fundamental processes of nucleation and crystallization are widely observed in systems relevant to material synthesis and biomineralization; yet most often, their mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we unravel the discrete stages of nucleation and crystallization of Fe3(PO4)2·8H2O (vivianite). We experimentally monitored the formation and transformation from ions to solid products by employing correlated, time-resolved in situ and ex situ approaches. We show that vivianite crystallization occurs in distinct stages via a transient amorphous precursor phase. The metastable amorphous ferrous phosphate (AFEP) intermediate could be isolated and stabilized. We resolved the differences in bonding environments, structure, and symmetric changes of the Fe site during the transformation of AFEP to crystalline vivianite through synchrotron X-ray absorption spectroscopy at the Fe K-edge. This intermediate AFEP phase has a lower water content and less distorted local symmetry, compared to the crystalline end product vivianite. Our combined results indicate that a nonclassical, hydration-induced nucleation and transformation driven by the incorporation and rearrangement of water molecules and ions (Fe2+ and PO43–) within the AFEP is the dominating mechanism of vivianite formation at moderately high to low vivianite supersaturations (saturation index ≤ 10.19). We offer fundamental insights into the aqueous, amorphous-to-crystalline transformations in the Fe2+–PO4 system and highlight the different attributes of the AFEP, compared to its crystalline counterpart.

description: Epidemiological modeling has a long history and is often used to forecast the course of infectious diseases or pandemics. These models come in different complexities, ranging from systems of simple ordinary differential equations (ODEs) to complex agent-based models (ABMs). The former allow a fast and straightforward optimization, but are limited in accuracy, detail, and parameterization, while the latter can resolve spreading processes in detail, but are extremely expensive to optimize. Epidemiological modeling can also be used to propose and design non-pharmaceutical interventions such as lockdowns. In general, their optimal design often leads to nonlinear optimization problems. We consider policy optimization in a prototypical situation modeled as both ODE and ABM, review numerical optimization approaches, and propose a heterogeneous multilevel approach based on combining a fine-resolution ABM and a coarse ODE model. Numerical experiments, in particular with respect to convergence speed, are given for illustrative examples.

Description
Colony erect, bushy, jointed, dichotomously branched, ramifications typically after every four zooids, zooids arranged alternately and opening on one side of branch only. Autozooids elongate, about 0.40–0.50 mm long by 0.20–0.24 mm wide; opesia occupying most of frontal surface, oval; gymnocyst moderately well developed proximally; cryptocyst very narrow, smooth; 4 or 5 long, basally articulated spines in distal half of zooid, the one that is more proximal and closest to branch axis forming a scutum bending over frontal membrane and bifid at the end (Fig. 8F); ovicell globular, wider than long, ectooecium with about 4–6 distal pores near distal edge, circular or radially elliptical (Fig. 8F). Avicularia small, located either on: (1) proximal gymnocyst on side closest to branch axis, orientated transversely or proximolaterally and facing outwards, often absent, variable in size, rostrum dentate, tip hooked; or (2) edge of branch close to distal end of autozooids, orientated outwards and facing distally, rostrum triangular, tip hooked. Vibracula located on outer proximal gymnocyst of autozooid, orientated proximally, seta up to 1 mm long.
Remarks
Vieira et al. (2014) have recently subdivided the species-rich genus Scrupocellaria. The taxonomy of this group is complex and the material collected from Langkawi is tentatively assigned to the genus Cradoscrupocellaria pending a more detailed study.

description: Quantum information processing architectures typically only allow for nearest-neighbor entanglement creation. In many cases, this prevents the direct generation of GHZ states, which are commonly used for many communication and computation tasks. Here, we show how to obtain GHZ states between nodes in a network that are connected in a straight line, naturally allowing them to initially share linear cluster states. We prove a strict upper bound of ⌊(n+3)/2⌋ on the size of the set of nodes sharing a GHZ state that can be obtained from a linear cluster state of n qubits, using local Clifford unitaries, local Pauli measurements, and classical communication. Furthermore, we completely characterize all selections of nodes below this threshold that can share a GHZ state obtained within this setting. Finally, we demonstrate these transformations on the IBMQ Montreal quantum device for linear cluster states of up to n=19 qubits.

description: In this paper, we introduce a framework ARBEx, a novel attentive feature extraction framework driven by Vision Transformer with reliability balancing to cope against poor class distributions, bias, and uncertainty in the facial expression learning (FEL) task. We reinforce several data pre-processing and refinement methods along with a window-based cross-attention ViT to squeeze the best of the data. We also employ learnable anchor points in the embedding space with label distributions and multi-head self-attention mechanism to optimize performance against weak predictions with reliability balancing, which is a strategy that leverages anchor points, attention scores, and confidence values to enhance the resilience of label predictions. To ensure correct label classification and improve the models' discriminative power, we introduce anchor loss, which encourages large margins between anchor points. Additionally, the multi-head self-attention mechanism, which is also trainable, plays an integral role in identifying accurate labels. This approach provides critical elements for improving the reliability of predictions and has a substantial positive effect on final prediction capabilities. Our adaptive model can be integrated with any deep neural network to forestall challenges in various recognition tasks. Our strategy outperforms current state-of-the-art methodologies, according to extensive experiments conducted in a variety of contexts.

Entoloma cervinum

description: Subclade / Cervinum
The /Cervinum subclade consists of Entoloma cervinum (Karstdet & Capelari) Blanco-Dios (2015:33) (Brazil), E. aff. luteum Peck (1902:146) (China) and E. mocamboense sp. nov. (Brazil). This subclade is characterized by two species with a mycenoid basidiome, a delicate, papillate, strongly translucent-striate and hygrophanous pileus, and cuboidal basidiospores with slightly elongated angles. E. aff. luteum in the sense of He et al. (2013) is not related to E. luteum and possibly corresponds to a species new to science.

MALAYSIA: MSL BRY016, Kampung Kuala Temoyong, Langkawi, found among fishing debris.
Description
Colony erect, rigidly calcified, bushy (Fig. 9A), comprising bifurcating, bifoliate, strap-like branches, about 2.2–2.5 mm wide, with approximately a dozen series of zooids across width of branch.Autozooids small, rounded hexagonal, longer than wide, 0.29–0.38 mm long by 0.19–0.24 mm wide, distinct with deep interzooidal grooves, frontal shield convex, a slight umbo sometimes developed centrally, densely granular in surface texture, with large areolar pores covering most of surface; primary orifice more or less equidimensional, about 0.08 mm long, a shallow U-shaped sinus separated from anter by small condyles (Fig. 9E); secondary orifice somewhat transversely elliptical, a subcircular spiramen separated from secondary orifice by a calcified bridge in mature zooids (Fig. 9 F–G). Gonozooids larger than autozooids, with a broad, shallow orifice separated from a wide spiramen by a deep calcified bridge with a process on proximal edge.Adventitious avicularia (Fig. 9F) developing on frontal shield of autozooids, often laterally to spiramen but occasionally more proximally, generally one or two per autozooid, sometimes absent, orientated variously; rostrum high gothic arch-shaped; cross-bar uncalcified; opesia rounded, a little wider than rostrum. Vicarious avicularia sporadically distributed (Fig. 9D), longer than autozooid, about 0.57 mm long by 0.21 mm wide; rostrum elongate, spatulate with a distal shelf; crossbar uncalcified; opesia roughly semicircular with a sloping cryptocyst-like proximal edge; frontal shield with areolar pores similar to those of autozooids. Kenozooids present along some branch edges.
Remarks
Found among debris discarded from a fishing net, Adeonella lichenoides is the only rigidly erect bryozoan collected in either Langkawi or Penang during the fieldwork in October 2013. This species is distributed throughout the Indo-West Pacific region (Hayward 1988).

description: Context. Love numbers measure the reaction of a celestial body to perturbing forces, such as the centrifugal force caused by rotation, or tidal forces resulting from the interaction with a companion body. These parameters are related to the interior density profile. The non-point mass nature of the host star and a planet orbiting around each other contributes to the periastron precession. The rate of this precession is characterized mainly by the second-order Love number, which offers an opportunity to determine its value. When it is known, the planetary interior structure can be studied with one additional constraint beyond the mass, radius, and orbital parameters. Aims. We aim to re-determine the orbital period, eccentricity, and argument of the periastron for WASP-19Ab, along with a study of its periastron precession rate. We calculated the planetary Love number from the observed periastron precession rate, based on the assumption of the stellar Love number from stellar evolutionary models. Methods. We collected all available radial velocity (RV) data, along with the transit and occultation times from the previous investigations of the system. We supplemented the data set with 19 new RV data points of the host star WASP-19A obtained by HARPS. Here, we summarize the technique for modeling the RV observations and the photometric transit timing variations (TTVs) to determine the rate of periastron precession in this system for the first time. Results. We excluded the presence of a second possible planet up to a period of ~4200 d and with a radial velocity amplitude bigger than ≃ 1 m s−1. We show that a constant period is not able to reproduce the observed radial velocities. We also investigated and excluded the possibility of tidal decay and long-term acceleration in the system. However, the inclusion of a small periastron precession term did indeed improve the quality of the fit. We measured the periastron precession rate to be 233−35+25″d−1. By assuming synchronous rotation for the planet, it indicates a k2 Love number of 0.20−0.03+0.02 for WASP-19Ab. Conclusions. The derived k2,p value of the planet has the same order of magnitude as the estimated fluid Love number of other Jupiter-sized exoplanets (WASP-18Ab, WASP-103b, and WASP-121b). A low value of k2,p indicates a higher concentration of mass toward the planetary nucleus.

Entoloma dragonosporum

description: Subclade / Dragonosporum
The /Dragonosporum subclade, represented by the species Entoloma dragonosporum (Singer) E. Horak (1977:292) (Brazil), forms a monophyletic group without strong support, the closest being subclades /Acutipallidum, /Cervinum, /Dragoluteum and /Procerum. The species shares most of the morphological characteristics that characterize the / Cervinum subclade but differs in having cuboidal basidiospores with extremely elongated angles, resembling a star, similar to the basidiospores of species of the /Procerum subclade.
