Multi‐scale maternal behavioral responses by white‐tailed deer to coyote predation risk
In the piedmont region of the southeastern US, white‐tailed deer adjust maternal care strategies in response to variation in risk of encountering coyotes. In areas frequented by coyotes, adult female deer (i.e., does) increase their use of space, likely to avoid drawing coyotes to the location where a fawn is hidden.

Abstract Many ecosystems receive resource subsidies that affect productivity and food webs. Ecosystem subsidies vary in quantity, quality, and timing, and effects are often mediated by environmental factors, including temperature. Deposition of periodical cicada carcasses into ponds represents a large, high‐quality, infrequent subsidy.

Ecotone Might Provide Key Refugium for Sky Island Mammals in the Southern Appalachian Mountains
Sky islands are among the most biodiverse ecosystems in the world but face a disproportionately high threat from climate change. We examined the spruce‐fir–northern hardwood ecotone as a possible refugium for mammals in the Southern Appalachian red spruce (Picea rubens)–Fraser fir (Abies fraseri) sky islands.

An ecological framework for microbial metabolites in the ocean ecosystem
Abstract The ocean microbe‐metabolite network involves thousands of individual metabolites that encompass a breadth of chemical diversity and biological functions. These microbial metabolites mediate biogeochemical cycles, facilitate ecological relationships, and impact ecosystem health. While analytical advancements have begun to illuminate such roles,

Abstract Coastal wetlands, including seagrass meadows, emergent marshes, mangroves, and temperate tidal swamps, can efficiently sequester and store large quantities of sediment organic carbon (SOC). However, SOC stocks may vary by ecosystem type and along environmental or climate gradients at different scales.

Bee Diversity and Abundance During Peach Bloom in South Carolina, United States
ABSTRACT Peach (Prunus persica [L.] Batsch) is an important speciality fruit crop in the United States. Peach is self‐compatible, but bee pollination enhances fruit sets and diverse populations improve pollination efficiency. However, the bee diversity and abundance in peach orchards in South Carolina are unknown.

High‐Quality Genomic DNA Extraction Protocol for Bacillus and Clostridium Species
Abstract High‐quality DNA with sufficient yield is the goal of DNA extraction protocols. We present an optimized, cost‐effective method for extracting next‐generation sequencing (NGS)‐quality genomic DNA from Bacillus and Clostridium species using the chloroform‐isoamyl approach.
