Reintroductions play a key role in conservation biology. Their long‐term success strongly depends on maximizing the genetic diversity of founders, as well as on ensuring ecological connectivity with adjacent populations. Accordingly, evaluating the conservation status of reintroduced populations to limit the loss of their genetic diversity requires ...

Belowground effects of ground‐dwelling large herbivores in forest ecosystems
This study reviews how ground‐dwelling large herbivores affect forest soil and litter globally. Effects are context‐dependent, vary among species and forest types, and remain poorly studied in tropical forests, highlighting critical gaps in understanding nutrient cycling and ecosystem functioning.

The relationship between the position of a flea species in the networks and its functional originality was found to be consistently positive in all realms, independently of which originality index was used. ABSTRACT We investigated the relationships between a species’ network position (measured as the combined normalized degree, species strength, and ...
