Obesity and acute stress modulate appetite and neural responses in food word reactivity task. by Susan Carnell, Leora Benson, Afroditi Papantoni, Liuyi Chen, Yuankai Huo, Zhishun Wang, Bradley S Peterson, Allan Geliebter

“…Patterns of activation were largely similar across stress and non-stress conditions, with some evidence for differences between conditions within both obese and lean groups. The obese group ate more than the lean group in both conditions. Our results suggest that neural responses to minimal food cues in stressed and non-stressed states may contribute to excess consumption and adiposity.…”

High Microsatellite but No Mitochondrial DNA Variation in an Invasive Japanese Mainland Population of the Parasitoid Wasp Melittobia sosui by Jun Abe, Jun‐ichi Takahashi, Koji Tsuchida

“…The high proportion of private alleles suggests that the mainland population diverged from the native populations at least 100 years ago, ruling out the possibility that the mainland population was established recently. The present study suggests that M. sosui might have already existed on the mainland but at a low frequency or that the mainland population was derived from a ghost population that diverged from the native populations more than 100 years ago.…”
