Taxonomic and methodological biases in saproxylic beetles: Body size, trophic group and detection probability

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Smaller saproxylic beetle species are described later and appear later in georeferenced databases, demonstrating a persistent body‐size bias that contributes to Linnean and Wallacean shortfalls. Trophic group, not body size, is the primary driver of detection probability in standardised flight‐trap surveys, with sapro‐xylophagous species detected most ...

Bioimage management and analysis in Galaxy: Tools, workflows, training, and community practices

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Image analysis in the life sciences is constrained by fragmented software ecosystems, heterogeneous data formats, and limited reproducibility. These barriers hinder the reuse of image analysis methods and the sustainability of tools. In this article, we describe how the Galaxy platform enables FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and ...

Reclaiming Relevance Through Problem‐Driven Interdisciplinary Research

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Management studies initially emerged as an applied field, uniquely positioned to tackle practical organizational problems through interdisciplinary research. Over time, however, the field has prioritized abstract theoretical contributions over real‐world engagement, fragmenting into disciplinary silos ill‐equipped to address complex ...

Patent landscape analysis of inventions based on plant genetic resources for food and agriculture and related digital sequence information

open access: yesThe Journal of World Intellectual Property, EarlyView.
Abstract This article provides an overview of the patent landscape in relation to PGRFA‐based inventions involving naturally occurring (“native”) traits and related Digital Sequence Information/Genetic Sequence Data (DSI/GSD). In particular, it focuses on the potential of patent claims to limit others' uses of PGRFA and related DSI/GSD on which the ...
