Unusually large cancer cells with abnormal nuclei have been documented in the cancer
literature since 1858. For more than 100 years, they have been generally disregarded as …

There is growing interest in the integration of macroecology and palaeoecology towards a
better understanding of past, present, and anticipated future biodiversity dynamics …

We present a unifying theory to explain cancer recurrence, therapeutic resistance, and
lethality. The basis of this theory is the formation of simultaneously polyploid and aneuploid …

Deep-sea floors represent one of the largest and most complex ecosystems on Earth but
remain essentially unexplored. The vastness and remoteness of this ecosystem make deep …

Cancer cells utilize the forces of natural selection to evolve evolvability allowing a constant
supply of heritable variation that permits a cancer species to evolutionary track changing …

Benthic foraminifera, shell-bearing protists, are familiar from geological studies. Although
many species are well known, undescribed single-chambered forms are common in the …

Abstract Symbiont-bearing Larger Benthic Foraminifera (LBF) are ubiquitous components of
shallow tropical and subtropical environments and contribute substantially to carbonaceous …

Until recently, the process of denitrification (conversion of nitrate or nitrite to gaseous
products) was thought to be performed exclusively by prokaryotes and fungi. The finding that …

The biostratigraphic importance, current zonations, and potential for the recognition of the
standard chronostratigraphic boundaries of five palaeontological groups (benthic …

Marine caves are characterized by wide environmental variability for the interaction between
marine and continental processes. Their conditions may be defined as extreme for …
