Forest understory ferns
Forest understory ferns are shade-adapted ferns forming a persistent ground layer beneath closed forest canopies, distinct from epiphytic ferns, and dense fern layers can suppress tree regeneration for decades.
Forestiera

Forestry
Forestry, also known as forest science, is the science and practice of managing natural and planted forests for environmental, economic, and social goals, with silviculture as its core discipline.
Forestry in India
Forestry in India: governance and management of forests under the National Forest Policy 1988, Forest Conservation Act 1980 and CAMPA; ISFR 2023 reports 715,343 sq km forest cover (21.76%) and 827,357 sq km forest and tree cover (25.17%).
Forestry periodicals
Forestry periodicals are magazines and journals on forests and forest science, from German journals of the 1800s and China's 1921 《森林》 to Sylwan, Annals of Forest Science, and modern open-access forestry journals.
Forever Living Products
Forever Living Products (FLP), founded by Rex Maughan in 1978, is a Scottsdale, Arizona aloe vera MLM selling through Forever Business Owners in 160+ countries; the FTC's April 2026 order barred deceptive earnings claims and the U.S. sponsorship model ends May 1, 2026.
Forever Oceans
Forever Oceans, also known as Kampachi Farms, was an American offshore aquaculture company that raised kanpachi in deep-water pens offshore Panama before liquidation experts took it over in 2024.
Forficula auricularia
Forficula auricularia, the European earwig, is an omnivorous Dermaptera insect with pincer-like cerci, native to Europe and introduced worldwide, univoltine with maternal egg care, and both a minor crop pest and an aphid predator in orchards.
Forficulidae
Forficulidae, the common earwig family of order Dermaptera, holds about 500 species in 67 genera including Forficula auricularia; males have a single penis, and molecular work reveals cryptic species.
Forgetting
Forgetting: loss of the ability to retrieve previously acquired information, studied via interference, decay, retrieval-cue failure, and active forgetting mechanisms from Ebbinghaus's 1885 curve to modern engram neuroscience.
Forgotten Joint Score
The Forgotten Joint Score (FJS-12) is a 12-item patient questionnaire measuring how far a patient forgets an artificial joint after hip or knee arthroplasty, scored 0 to 100.
Forigerimod
Forigerimod (P140, Lupuzor, IPP-201101) is a 21-mer phosphopeptide from U1-70K snRNP that binds HSC70/HSPA8 to treat lupus; Phase IIb positive, Phase III missed its endpoint, CIDP in development.
Forkhead box protein J1
Forkhead box protein J1 (FOXJ1, forkhead-like 13, HFH-4): a FOX-family transcription factor and master regulator of motile cilia formation, activated by p73, conserved across unikonts, mutated in motile ciliopathy.
Forks Over Knives

Formalin fixation
Formalin fixation preserves tissue by immersing it in dilute formaldehyde, which cross-links proteins and nucleic acids so microscopic structure, antigens, and biomolecules survive storage, staining, and molecular testing.
Formalin test
The formalin test is a rodent pain assay in which dilute formalin is injected into a paw, producing a biphasic pain response used to screen analgesic drugs.
Formamidase
Formamidase (EC 3.5.1.49, AmiF/FmdA) is a nitrilase-superfamily hydrolase converting formamide to formate and ammonia, letting microbes use formamide as a nitrogen source; H. pylori AmiF hydrolyzes formamide only.
Formate dehydrogenase
Formate dehydrogenase (FDH, EC 1.17.1.9) catalyzes reversible formate/CO2 interconversion. Two classes: NAD+-dependent metal-free enzymes and Mo/W-containing prokaryotic enzymes of the DMSO reductase family; used for NADH recycling and CO2 reduction.
Formate hydrogenlyase maturation HycH
HycH (formate hydrogenlyase maturation protein) is a 136-residue E. coli hyc operon protein required for maturation of hydrogenase 3 but not part of the functional FHL-1 complex; it acts as a dual-function assembly chaperone.
Formate-dependent cytochrome c nitrite reductase, c552 subunit
Formate-dependent cytochrome c nitrite reductase, c552 subunit, commonly called NrfA, is a soluble periplasmic pentaheme cytochrome c enzyme catalyzing the six-electron reduction of nitrite to ammonium, the final step of DNRA.
Formate-dependent phosphoribosylglycinamide formyltransferase
Formate-dependent phosphoribosylglycinamide formyltransferase (PurT, GAR transformylase 2) is a bacterial, ATP- and formate-dependent enzyme of de novo purine biosynthesis, redundant with folate-dependent PurN, supplied formate by PurU, and structurally unrelated to it.
Formetanate
Formetanate, a carbamate insecticide and acaricide used as the hydrochloride salt (Dicarzol), inhibits acetylcholinesterase; EU approval for tomato and ornamental thrips control expires 30 September 2026.
Formicarium
Formicarium: a purpose-built artificial ant nest with a brood chamber connected to an outworld foraging area, distinct from a simple ant farm. Made from test tubes, acrylic, Ytong, gypsum, or 3D-printed materials; US interstate ant movement requires a PPQ 526 permit.
Formicarius
Formicarius (Boddaert, 1783) is a genus of Neotropical antthrushes, family Formicariidae, type species F. colma; terrestrial forest-floor birds including the Black-faced, Rufous-capped, and Mayan Antthrushes.
Formication
Formication: tactile hallucination of insects crawling on or under the skin, from Latin formica (ant). Symptom of stimulant intoxication, menopause, neuropathy, and delusional infestation; not a delusion by itself.
