Potential distribution and susceptibility of Coffea arabica L. to climate change impacts
Ecological niche models (ENMs) are vital for understanding the impact of historical factors on ecosystems and predicting future climate change scenarios. These models help assess how environmental shifts affect agricultural species like coffee, which supports millions of people globally.

Influence of Fertilization on the Phytoremediation of Lead‐Contaminated Soils Using Tropical Grasses
ABSTRACT Lead is an element intensively used by human activities, representing serious risks to food security due to soil contamination, making it essential to implement control strategies to mitigate its harmful effects. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of soil fertilization on the growth and lead accumulation of grasses used ...

CISO: Species distribution modelling Conditioned on Incomplete Species Observations
Abstract Species distribution models (SDMs) are widely used to predict species' geographic distributions, serving as critical tools for ecological research and conservation planning. Typically, SDMs relate species occurrences to environmental variables representing abiotic factors, such as temperature, precipitation, and soil properties.

ABSTRACT Ornamental plants, including barrier or hedge plants, are important in horticulture. Occurring at the urban to natural barrier, plants are often conflict of interest species. Here, we study the invading ornamental barrier plant Metrosideros excelsa Soland ex Gaertn.

ABSTRACT Migration is a global phenomenon shaping bird assemblages in response to seasonal climate variations. The Streamer‐tailed Tyrant (Gubernetes yetapa) is a Neotropical bird associated with wetlands. Although considered common across most of its range, its natural history remains poorly understood, and some authors have suggested it may exhibit ...

Beneficence‐Based Obligations and Ethics Consultation in Assisted Dying
ABSTRACT In ethical debates on assisted dying, the principle of respect for autonomy is usually invoked to justify respecting requests for assisted dying. However, there are not only autonomy‐based obligations, but also obligations arising from the principle of beneficence towards persons requesting assisted dying.

Protein import into mitochondria relies on TIM complexes and the membrane potential. Trypanosoma brucei has a unique TIM complex, and the role of one subunit, TbTim20, has remained unclear. Here, we show that TbTim20 is essential in cells lacking mitochondrial DNA. The importance of TbTim20 increases as the membrane potential decreases.

Alien mammals largely retain their realized native climatic niche, yet often show incomplete colonization of receiving zoogeographic regions. Across 337 species‐by‐realm niche comparisons, niche expansion is generally low and concentrated in a few zoogeographic realms, whereas niche unfilling is widespread, indicating large pools of suitable yet ...
