Abstract Mistletoes, recognized as keystone species, supply diverse floral and fruit resources for birds, thereby facilitating mutualistic interactions in pollination and seed dispersal. Some avian species are “double mutualists,” engaging in both functions. However, their precise roles and effectiveness as mutualists remain inadequately understood. In

ABSTRACT The fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) has driven severe amphibian declines across the Neotropics, yet some species persist under enzootic pathogen conditions following epizootics. We investigated whether skin bacterial communities and host mucosome activity contributed to the persistence of seven amphibian species in a once ...

Abstract High‐altitude chronic hypoxia can induce excessive erythrocytosis (EE, defined as a haemoglobin concentration of ≥21 g/dL in men), leading to hyperviscosity and promoting endothelial dysfunction. We aimed to assess whether EE affects the retinal vascular phenotype and the ophthalmological vascular response to CO2.
