Such interactions are threatened by the possible extinction of the animal partners. Using a data set that includes plant–lemur interactions across Madagascar, we studied the current state of knowledge of these interactions ...
2 days ago · Evidence in favor of remapped spatial information (BF > 10) emerged in the early cluster of bins ranging from a bin center of 100–180 ms. The largest difference in decoding accuracy (10%) between control and saccade trials occurred in the bin ranging from 70 to 170 ms (bin center, 120 ms) at 184 ms post-stimulus onset.
