Bromeliad selection by two salamander species in a harsh environment.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Bromeliad phytotelmata are frequently used by several Neotropical amphibian taxa, possibly due to their high humidity, microclimatic stability, and role as a refuge from predators.

Influence of drought stress on the metabolite and ion composition in nectar and nectaries of different day‐ and night‐flowering Nicotiana species

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 897-912, April 2026.
Drought stress leads to reduced nectar secretion and alters nectar composition of day‐ and night‐flowering Nicotiana species, which may impair plant–pollinator interactions. Abstract The frequencies of droughts worldwide will increase in the future due to climate changes. Nectar composition of plant species varies in relation to pollinator and can also

The Pressure Is On – Epiphyte Water-Relations Altered Under Elevated CO2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Vascular epiphytes are a major biomass component of forests across the globe and they contribute to 9% of global vascular plant diversity. To improve our understanding of the whole-plant response of epiphytes to future climate change, we investigated for

Host Genus and Habitat Use Shape the Distribution of Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis Lineages in a Hyper‐Diverse Tropical Amphibian Community

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Anthropogenic change has facilitated the spread of the amphibian chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) in Brazil's Atlantic Forest, where two Bd lineages (Bd‐GPL and Bd‐Brazil) co‐occur. We successfully genotyped 252 Bd‐positive samples from a diverse amphibian assemblage spanning aquatic and terrestrial habitats and found that Bd lineage ...

A Preliminary Assessment of Noise‐Related Impacts From the Urban‐Invasive Johnstone's Whistling Frog (Eleutherodactylus johnstonei) 城市入侵物种约翰斯通鸣蛙 (Eleutherodactylus johnstonei) 引起的噪声影响初步评估 Una evaluación preliminar de los impactos relacionados con el ruido de la rana silbadora de Johnstone (Eleutherodactylus johnstonei), especie urbana invasora

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 104-114, March 2026.
The Johnstone's whistling frog is an invasive species whose loud night‐time calls may affect human health and well‐being. Our study in Cali, Colombia, combined fieldwork and online surveys to assess its urban occupancy, density, and potential health impacts.

Limno‐STOICH: A comprehensive database linking the elemental stoichiometry of organisms with inland aquatic habitats

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract All organisms contain carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus in widely ranging amounts and proportions. Integrating existing datasets enables quantification of this variation at global scales. Such efforts could leverage ecological stoichiometry theory, the study of elemental supply and imbalances in ecological interactions, to connect ecological ...

Inconsistent effects of P enrichment and predator presence on food‐web dynamics in a bromeliad system

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.
Food webs consist of trophic interactions of variable strength. However, it remains challenging to predict how changes in environmental conditions, such as nutrient enrichment, can affect these interactions. In this paper, we propose to integrate food web theory with ecological stoichiometry, which predicts how elemental ratios affect trophic ...

The Cinderella tree, Quillaja saponaria – A soap story

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 439-451, March 2026.
Our current understanding of plants has been shaped by the entwining of different cultures. The Chilean soapbark tree, traditionally valued as a source of natural soap, was shown by serendipitous research in France in the 1900s to produce compounds that can boost the immune response to vaccines.
