Origin, evolution and biogeographic dynamics of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in Southwestern Europe

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

Increasing the succinate yield in Actinobacillus succinogenes by fumigation of H2 in a bioreactor

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The microbial conversion of CO2 into value‐added chemicals offers a promising and scalable route for sustainable bioproduction, particularly under mild reaction conditions and with technically straightforward reactor configurations. Actinobacillus succinogenes, a natural succinate producer, can fix CO2 through anaplerotic carboxylation but its

Influence of Zn2+ and Oxygen Supply on Malic Acid Production and Growth of Aspergillus oryzae

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Malic acid is a valuable platform chemical traditionally derived from fossil‐based resources. Microbial cultivation with Aspergillus oryzae offers a sustainable alternative based on renewable feedstocks. In this study, a well‐established minimal medium for malic acid production, commonly used in previous research to ensure reproducibility, was

The impact of urbanisation on social behaviour: a comprehensive review

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urbanisation is a key driver of global environmental change and presents animals with novel stressors and challenges. It can fundamentally influence social behaviour and has the potential to reshape within‐ and between‐species social interactions. Given the role of social behaviour in reproductive fitness and survival, understanding how social

Persistent organic pollutants in biotic and abiotic components of the Orange-Senqu River basin

open access: yes, 2023
PhD (Science with Zoology), North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus The Orange-Senqu River Basin (OSRB) stretches over four southern Africa countries that are all Parties to the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (SCPOPs). The main tributary, the Vaal River on the eastern side of the basin drains a large industrial region before ...

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Shaping research in marine functional connectivity for integrated and effective marine science and management

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Effective knowledge of ecological connectivity at sea and at the land–sea interface is key to supporting global policy goals to conserve and restore ocean biodiversity and function. However, a persistent lack of commonality in terminology and understanding around the concept of connectivity in marine ecological studies hampers its integration ...
