Comment on: “Lévy walks evolve through interaction between movement and environmental complexity.”
Jansen, Vincent; Mashanova, Alla; Petrovskii, Sergei (2012-02-24)de Jager et al. (Reports, 24 June 2011, p. 1551) concluded that mussels Lévy walk. We confronted a larger model set with these data and found that mussels do not Lévy walk: Their movement is best described by a composite ... -
Composition and characteristics of a transitional flora at Rough Hills grasslands, Bayfordbury
Mashanova, Alla; Scholes, Bronwyn; Denholm, Ian (2021-10-01) -
Effects of a penthiopyrad and picoxystrobin fungicide mixtureon phoma stem canker (Leptosphaeria spp.) on UK winteroilseed rape
Sewell, Thomas; Moloney, Steven; Ashworth, Mike; Ritchie, Faye; Mashanova, Alla; Huang, Yongju; Stotz, Henrik; Fitt, Bruce (2016-07-01)In the UK, fungicides are often used to controlphoma stem canker on winter oilseed rape. Field trialswere established near Boxworth, Cambridgeshire for fourcropping seasons (2011/2012, 2012/2013, 2013/2014 and2014/15) to ... -
Fat Duckweed (Lemna gibba) might be much more widespread in Hertfordshire than previously thought
Mashanova, Alla; Espinosa Montiel, Javier; Barrero Sicilia, Cristina (2022-11-01) -
Genomic evidence for genes encoding leucine-rich repeat receptors linked to resistance against the eukaryotic extra- and intracellular Brassica napus pathogens Leptosphaeria maculans and Plasmodiophora brassicae
Stotz, Henrik; Pascoe, Harvey; Parham, Haddadi; Fitt, Bruce; Mashanova, Alla; Kukol, Andreas; Larkan, Nicholas; Hossein, Borhan (2018-06-01)Genes coding for nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (LRR) receptors (NLRs) control resistance against intracellular (cell-penetrating) pathogens. However, evidence for a role of genes coding for proteins with LRR domains ... -
Heterogeneity of cell membrane structure studied by single molecule tracking
Mashanov, Gregory; Nenasheva, Tatiana; Mashanova, Alla; Lape, Remigijus; Birdsall, Nigel; Sivilotti, Lucia; Molloy, Justin (2021-12-01)Heterogeneity in cell membrane structure, typified by microdomains with different biophysical and biochemical properties, is thought to impact on a variety of cell functions. Integral membrane proteins act as nanometre-sized ... -
Improved prediction equations for estimating height in adults from ethnically diverse backgrounds
Madden, Angela; Mashanova, Alla; Amirabdollahian, Farzad; Ghuman, Sandeep; Makda, Munibah; Collinson, Avril; Dean, Frances; Hirsz, Malgorzata; Lennie, Susan; Maynard, Maria J; Power, Brian (2019-06-21)Background and aims: When body height cannot be measured, it can be predicted from ulna length (UL). However, commonly used published prediction equations may not provide useful estimates in adults from all ethnicities. ... -
Intrinsic and extrinsic factors influencing large African herbivore movements
Venter, Jan A.; Prins, Herbert H.T.; Mashanova, Alla; de Boer, Willem F.; Slotow, Rob (2015-11-01)Understanding environmental as well as anthropogenic factors that influence large herbivore ecological patterns and processes should underpin their conservation and management. We assessed the influence of intrinsic, ... -
Plant species in flower during the year
Mashanova, Alla (British Naturalists' Association (BNA), 2019)This note presents a graph showing numbers of plant species in flower observed by BNA members during walks through the year. -
Protection Versus Pathology in Aviremic and High Viral Load HIV-2 Infection : The Pivotal Role of Immune Activation and T-cell Kinetics
Hegedus, Andrea; Nyamweya, Samuel; Zhang, Yan; Govind, Sheila; Aspinall, Richard; Mashanova, Alla; Jansen, Vincent A. A.; Whittle, Hilton; Jaye, Assan; Flanagan, Katie L; Macallan, Derek C. (2014-09-01)BACKGROUND: Many human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-2-infected individuals remain aviremic and behave as long-term non-progressors but some progress to AIDS. We hypothesized that immune activation and T-cell turnover would ... -
Recording of higher plants 2017-2019
Denholm, Ian; Mashanova, Alla (2020-09-01)The most recent report of flora recording in Herts was published by Trevor James in the 2017 issue of The Hertfordshire Naturalist (James, 2017). This covered the years 2015 and 2016 and so an update is overdue. Here we ... -

The role of spatial structure in the infection spread models: population density map of England example
Mashanova, Alla; Mashanov, Gregory (medRxiv, 2020-04-29)In the current situation of a pandemic caused by COVID-19 developing models accurately predicting the dynamics of the outbreaks in time and space became extremely important. Individual-based models (IBM) simulating the ... -
Ungulates rely less on visual cues, but more on adapting movement behaviour, when searching for forage
Venter, Jan A.; Prins, Herbert H T; Mashanova, Alla; Slotow, Rob (2017-05-16)Finding suitable forage patches in a heterogeneous landscape, where patches change dynamically both spatially and temporally could be challenging to large herbivores, especially if they have no a priori knowledge of the ... -
Variation in individual walking behaviour creates the impression of a Lévy flight
Petrovskii, Sergei; Mashanova, Alla; Jansen, Vincent (2011-05-24)Many animal paths have an intricate statistical pattern that manifests itself as a power law-like tail in the distribution of movement lengths. Such distributions occur if individuals move according to a Lévy flight (a ...
