Identifying priority areas for conservation to promote connectivity and mitigate the impacts of anthropogenic disturbance

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract As nations seek to expand protected area (PA) networks to cover 30% of land and seas by 2030 (30×30), there is an urgent need for systematic conservation planning and spatial prioritization that considers the broad range of ecological and socioeconomic factors influencing the persistence of biodiversity.

Simple sequence repeats and their expansions: role in plant development, environmental response and adaptation

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 2, Page 504-517, July 2025.
Summary Repetitive DNA is a feature of all organisms, ranging from archaea and plants to humans. DNA repeats can be seen both in coding and in noncoding regions of the genome. Due to the recurring nature of the sequences, simple DNA repeats tend to be more prone to errors during replication and repair, resulting in variability in their unit length ...

Abundant top predators increase species interaction network complexity in northeastern Chinese forests

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 4, Page 745-759, April 2025.
Our study reveals how top predators influence mammalian interaction networks by increasing complexity and redistributing interactions through indirect effects. These findings imply the important role of top predators in structuring communities, offering novel insights into the conservation and management of mammal communities in northeastern China ...

Ecological safety assessment of egrets in Xiamen National Nature Reserve [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
[摘要]:白鹭的生态安全是指白鹭所处的生态系统能够维持白鹭种群持续生存的需求和条件, 其中关键是白鹭生境的安全。白鹭 生境安全从根本上取决于生境的适宜性和人为对生境的干扰程度, 又可以理解为生境受到人类干扰后所能保持的生态适宜性。 分别选择白鹭在厦门的2 个主要繁殖栖息生境 大屿岛和鸡屿岛和10 个代表性觅食生境为研究对象, 对白鹭生境的生态适 宜性和人为干扰程度进行分别评价。其中, 生境适宜性评价采用指标体系法, 通过赋值、计算进行评价; 人为干扰程度评价主要 依靠地理信息系统分析方法 ...

Understanding author choices in the current conservation publishing landscape

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Conservation literature addresses a broad spectrum of interdisciplinary questions and benefits. Conservation science benefits most when a diverse range of authors are represented, particularly those from countries where much conservation work is focused.

Human-induced disturbance on the understory plant diversity of urban forest:a case study of Xiamen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
以厦门城市森林林下层植被为研究对象,重点研究台湾相思群落中林下灌草层植物多样性与土地利用类型、人为干扰程度之间的相关性;选用基于重要值的4种多样性指数,比较不同邻接用地类型城市森林群落多样性的差异;运用主成分分析、CCA排序以及多元回归等方法对城市森林灌草层植物多样性格局进行解释。结果表明:人为踩踏、垃圾堆积程度、人为挖掘、可到达容易程度等因子对厦门城市森林灌草层植物多样性分布格局有重要影响;厦门城市森林群落草本层β多样性沿着邻接商业用地、交通用地、工业用地、居住用地的方向逐渐增加 ...

Forests and Mediterranean squamates: How does crown canopy impact species richness and phylogenetic diversity? 森林与地中海有鳞目动物:树冠如何影响物种丰富度和系统发育多样性?

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page 342-352, December 2024.
Human activity, particularly the increase in forested areas across the western Mediterranean, has impacted squamate diversity. This study investigated the impact of canopy cover on squamate assemblages, finding the highest diversity in areas with moderate tree cover.
