Automated counting of fish in moving diver‐operated videos (DOV) for biodiversity assessments

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Underwater video transects are crucial to assess marine biodiversity and biomass. Counting fish in these videos is labour‐ and time‐intensive and operator‐dependent. Automating this step would create non‐biased biodiversity data and decouple the data collection campaign from any field constraints.

CheckEM: An open‐source toolkit for standardising, cleaning and visualising stereo‐video fish survey data

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Effective research and monitoring requires accurate, interoperable and representative data. Stereo‐video based methods are commonly used to survey fish and are rapidly expanding globally due to their cost‐effectiveness, ability to provide accurate body size measurements, non‐destructive approach and capacity to create permanent data records ...

Elucidating R‐gene‐mediated resistance to wheat dwarf virus in Triticum aestivum genotypes

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
This study investigates R‐gene‐mediated resistance to wheat dwarf virus (WDV) among different wheat genotypes. Following inoculation with Psammotettix alienus (leafhoppers) and the subsequent appearance of characteristic symptoms such as yellowing and dwarfing, phenotypic responses were evaluated alongside molecular analyses, including quantification ...

Food Subsidies Reduce Livestock Depredations by a Recovering Carnivore

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Diversionary feeding—providing food caches to divert predators away from preying on livestock—is a strategy to reduce depredations by Mexican gray wolves but has not been evaluated for its effectiveness. We used data from the Mexican wolf recovery program from 2014‐2021 to evaluate whether diversionary feeding reduced livestock depredations by wolf ...

Using Periodic Matrix Models to Simulate the Effectiveness of Alternative Reintroduction Strategies for Lizards on a Seasonal Tropical Island

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Guam's lizard fauna has been devastated by the invasive brown treesnake, but recent advances in brown treesnake control have opened the possibility of reintroducing native lizards. We simulated different strategies for reintroducing lizards to Guam, comparing the timing and age‐structure of releases.
