Fitness homeostasis across an experimental water gradient predicts species' geographic range and climatic breadth
- Ecology
on Sep 22, 2022
Species range sizes and realized niche breadths vary tremendously. Understanding the source of this variation has been a long-term aim in evolutionary ecology and is a major tool in efforts to ameliorate the impacts of changing climates on species di... Read More
Pesticide impacts on avian species with special reference to farmland birds: a review
- Environmental Monitoring and Assessment
- VOL. 194
on Sep 15, 2022
For decades, we have observed a major biodiversity crisis impacting all taxa. Avian species have been particularly well monitored over the long term, documenting their declines. In particular, farmland birds are decreasing worldwide, but the contribu... Read More
Mating and Sexual Selection in Empidine Dance Flies (Empididae)
- Insects
- VOL. 13
on Sep 15, 2022
Species whose behaviour or morphology diverges from typical patterns can provide unique insights on the evolutionary forces that promote diversity. Darwin recognised that while elaborate sexually selected traits mostly occurred among males, in a few ... Read More
Solutions to Difficult Problems Caused by the Complexity of Human–Water Relationship in the Yellow River Basin: Based on the Perspective of Human–Water Relationship Discipline
- Water
- VOL. 14
on Sep 14, 2022
The human–water relationship in the Yellow River Basin is extremely complex, and the human–water relationship discipline is a powerful tool to solve difficult problems caused by the complexity. This study firstly analyzes the historical evolution of ... Read More
Using spot pattern recognition to examine population biology, evolutionary ecology, sociality, and movements of giraffes: a 70-year retrospective
- Mammalian Biology
on Sep 6, 2022
Explaining pre-emptive acclimation by linking information to plant phenotype.
- Journal of experimental botany
- VOL. 73
on Sep 3, 2022
We review mechanisms for pre-emptive acclimation in plants and propose a conceptual model linking developmental and evolutionary ecology with the acquisition of information through sensing of cues and signals. The idea is that plants acquire much of ... Read More
Glucocorticoid receptor expression as an integrative measure to assess glucocorticoid plasticity and efficiency in evolutionary endocrinology: A perspective
- Hormones and Behavior
- VOL. 145
on Sep 1, 2022
Organisms have to cope with the changes that take place in their environment in order to keep their physical and psychological stability. In vertebrates, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis plays a key role in mediating phenotypic adjustmen... Read More
Prostorna varijabilnost morfoloških obilježja iglica populacija jele (Abies alba Mill.) na Balkanskom poluotoku u odnosu na klimatske čimbenike
- Šumarski list
- VOL. 146
on Aug 31, 2022
Interpopulation and intrapopulation variability of three morphological needle traits (length, width and thickness) was investigated in 16 natural silver fir populations in the Balkan Peninsula. The populations represent refugial areas of silver fir (... Read More
Phylogenomic structure and speciation in an emerging model: the Sphagnum magellanicum complex (Bryophyta)
- New Phytologist
on Aug 30, 2022
Sphagnum magellanicum is one of two Sphagnum species for which a reference-quality genome exists to facilitate research in ecological genomics. Phylogenetic and comparative genomic analyses were conducted based on resequencing data from 48 samples an... Read More
Long-term ecological trajectories of a disturbed Mediterranean coastal lagoon (Biguglia lagoon): Ecosystem-based approach and considering its resilience for conservation?
- Frontiers in Marine Science
- VOL. 9
on Aug 26, 2022
Coastal lagoons are subjected to ever-increasing direct or indirect anthropic pressures and are inexorably deteriorating with serious issues regarding their resilience. In this paper, we assessed the functioning and evolution of the highly disturbed ... Read More
Ecological evolution during the three-year restoration using rhizosphere soil cover method at a Lead-Zinc tailing pond in Karst areas.
- The Science of the total environment
on Aug 25, 2022
A major challenge for the restoration of the Lead-Zinc tailing pond in Karst areas lies in how to establish vegetation with less soil and restore the ecological functions of the substrate. In this study, a novel method, rhizosphere soil cover method ... Read More
Developmental plasticity in thermal tolerance: Ontogenetic variation, persistence, and future directions
- Ecology Letters
on Aug 25, 2022
Understanding the factors affecting thermal tolerance is crucial for predicting the impact climate change will have on ectotherms. However, the role developmental plasticity plays in allowing populations to cope with thermal extremes is poorly unders... Read More
SVM and ANN Modelling Approach for the Optimization of Membrane Permeability of a Membrane Rotating Biological Contactor for Wastewater Treatment
- Membranes
- VOL. 12
on Aug 23, 2022
Membrane fouling significantly hinders the widespread application of membrane technology. In the current study, a support vector machine (SVM) and artificial neural networks (ANN) modelling approach was adopted to optimize the membrane permeability i... Read More
A global horizon scan for urban evolutionary ecology.
- Trends in ecology & evolution
on Aug 19, 2022
Research on the evolutionary ecology of urban areas reveals how human-induced evolutionary changes affect biodiversity and essential ecosystem services. In a rapidly urbanizing world imposing many selective pressures, a time-sensitive goal is to iden... Read More
Evolutionary Ecology of Fire
- Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution, and Systematics
- VOL. 53
on Aug 16, 2022
Fire has been an ecosystem process since plants colonized land over 400 million years ago. Many diverse traits provide a fitness benefit following fires, and these adaptive traits vary with the fire regime. Some of these traits enhance fire survival... Read More
Nuclear genetic diversity and structure of Anastrepha ludens wild populations evidenced by microsatellite markers
