Components of beta diversity in hierarchical sampling designs: A new approach [PDF]

, 2013
Diversity partitioning has been generally used to estimate the contribution of different levels of sampling hierarchy to landscape diversity. However, beta diversity values derived by partitioning strongly depend on focus and sample size and the ...

An attribute‐diversity approach to functional diversity, functional beta diversity, and related (dis)similarity measures [PDF]

Ecological Monographs, 2019
AbstractBased on the framework of attribute diversity (a generalization of Hill numbers of order q), we develop a class of functional diversity measures sensitive not only to species abundances but also to trait‐based species‐pairwise functional distances.

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

What do beta diversity components reveal from presence-absence community data? Let us connect every indicator to an indicandum!

Ecological Indicators, 2020
Extracting meaningful information from community data is among the most challenging tasks of community ecology. Whereas presence-absence data matrices are commonly used in different analytical frameworks, we argue that the conceptual distinction among ...

Alpha, beta and gamma diversity of fished marine taxa along the southwest coast of India during 1970-2005 [PDF]

, 2011
The data on species-wise marine fish landings at Kerala and Karnataka during 1970-2005 were used to examine diversities of fished taxa through alpha, beta, and gamma diversities which are the fundamental descriptive variables of ecology and ...

Linking neurogenesis, oligodendrogenesis, and myelination defects to neurodevelopmental disruption in primary mitochondrial disorders

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial remodeling shapes neural and glial lineage progression by matching metabolic supply with demand. Elevated OXPHOS supports differentiation and myelin formation, while myelin compaction lowers mitochondrial dependence, revealing mitochondria as key drivers of developmental energy adaptation.

Environmental factors are primary determinants of different facets of pond macroinvertebrate alpha and beta diversity in a human-modified landscape

Biological Conservation, 2019
Understanding the spatial patterns and environmental drivers of freshwater diversity and community structure is a key challenge in biogeography and conservation biology.

Geographic patterns and environmental correlates of taxonomic and phylogenetic beta diversity for large‐scale angiosperm assemblages in China

Ecography, 2020
A full understanding of the origin and maintenance of β -diversity patterns in a region requires exploring the relationships of both taxonomic and phylogenetic β -diversity (TBD and PBD, respectively), and their respective turnover and nestedness ...

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

Partitioning the colonization and extinction components of beta diversity across disturbance gradients.

Ecology, 2020
Changes in species diversity often result from species losses and gains. The dynamic nature of beta diversity (spatial variation in species composition) that derives from such temporal species turnover, however, has received relatively little attention ...
