Spatially-dependent biotic and abiotic factors drive survivorship and physical structure of green roof vegetation

, 2016
Plant survivorship depends on biotic and abiotic factors that vary at local and regional scales. This survivorship, in turn, has cascading effects on community composition and the physical structure of vegetation. Survivorship of native plant species is

Incorporating sampling bias into ENM/SDM permutation tests: new methods and a case study on neotropical ants

Ecography, EarlyView.
Spatial sampling bias in occurrence data can generate spurious environmental associations in models of species distributions and ecological niches, and can also undermine inferences based on permutation tests made using these models. Geographic randomization tests are often used to generate distributions of expected behavior under the null hypothesis ...

Identification and Analysis of WRKY Transcription Factors in Response to Cowpea Fusarium Wilt in Cowpea

In plants, WRKY transcription factors play a crucial role in plant growth, development, and response to abiotic and biotic stress. Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) is an important legume crop. However, cowpea Fusarium wilt (CFW), caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.

Faster growing and more functionally diverse: global change alters functional trait composition of mountain plant communities in the European Alps

Ecography, EarlyView.
Understanding how global change reshapes mountain plant communities is essential for predicting biodiversity and ecosystem function in a warming world. Using resurvey data from over 1400 non‐forest vegetation plots across the European Alps, we show that community‐weighted means of key functional traits capturing important dimensions of plant ecological

Intestinal microbiome alterations in pediatric epilepsy: Implications for seizures and therapeutic approaches

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The intestinal microbiome plays a pivotal role in maintaining host health through its involvement in gastrointestinal, immune, and central nervous system (CNS) functions. Recent evidence underscores the bidirectional communication between the microbiota, the gut, and the brain and the impact of this axis on neurological diseases, including ...
