Use of carrion fly iDNA metabarcoding to monitor invasive and native mammals

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 5, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Severely fragmented habitats increase the risk of extirpation of native mammal populations through isolation, increased edge effects, and predation. Therefore, monitoring the movement of mammal populations through anthropogenically altered landscapes can inform conservation. We used metabarcoding of invertebrate‐derived DNA (iDNA) from carrion

Global coordination of wheat sowing: A possible policy against climate variability

open access: yesWorld Food Policy, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 6-27, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Through an analysis of the sowing and harvesting times across all the regions of a tailored‐for‐wheat world geographic partition, we assess the temporal possibility of modifying the acreage of wheat crops in some regions in an attempt to offset the change in production caused by the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) in the others.

Randomised, Double‐Blinded, Placebo‐Controlled Challenge Test With Single Food Items in Dogs With Atopic Dermatitis and Adverse Food Reactions

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 247-256, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Identification of offending foods in dogs with adverse food reactions is usually based on “deterioration” during open food challenges. Objectives To examine the placebo effect during double‐blinded, placebo‐controlled food challenges using a predefined set of criteria for relapse.

Role of forest edges and other seminatural linear landscape features in structuring wild bee habitat connectivity in intensively managed landscapes

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Pollinator conservation schemes typically focus on conserving existing, restoring degraded, or creating new wild bee habitats. Their effectiveness depends on dispersal corridors enabling habitat colonization by bees. However, the role of seminatural linear landscape structures (LLS) in connecting pollinator communities across intensively ...

「神奈川ゆかりの科学者 木原均」~その足跡から日本の遺伝学の歴史を読み解く~ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
 小麦遺伝学者の木原均(きはら ひとし;1893-1986)は、日本の遺伝学の発展に大きく貢献した学者の一人です。今日は、木原の研究のうち、小麦の祖先の発見について、「生物多様性」という観点からお話ししたいと思います。 人類は、長い歴史の中で、さまざまな環境条件下に強い品種を育て、冷害、干ばつ、虫害など農業に襲いかかる災いと闘ってきました。これらの品種は、変異に富んだ自然(生物多様性)を利用して育てられてきたものです。 1920年代に、ようやく、科学者は ...
