Three closely linked X‐chromosomal genes potentially control sex determination in Cannabis sativa
Summary Sex determination mechanisms in dioecious plants remain poorly understood yet offer an excellent model system to study genetic changes underlying morphological evolution. We investigated the genetic basis of sex determination in Cannabis sativa, combining quantitative trait locus mapping in a segregating population, comparative transcriptomics ...

Abstract Biological invasions often generate complex ecological paradoxes, particularly when invasive species act as ecosystem engineers that simultaneously compete with and benefit native communities. Understanding these dual dynamics is critical for managing urban biodiversity.

Abstract Global institutions are increasingly calling for an agroecological transition of our food systems to promote sustainable farmer livelihoods, safeguard agrobiodiversity and foster socio‐ecological resilience to a changing climate. Yet adoption remains limited, and there is a paucity of research examining how local conditions enable and ...

El presente artículo expone la teoría explicativa propuesta por Carey para el cambio conceptual. Primeramente, se plantea la cuestión de la reorganización conceptual en la psicología cognitiva y la posición de Carey. En segundo lugar, se ponen de relieve las condiciones epistémica que deben cumplir las "teorías" infantiles para que la reestructuración ...

The visible and invisible drivers of biocultural loss in the Amazon
Abstract The Amazon is rapidly approaching an ecological tipping point driven by deforestation, forest degradation and global climate change. These are visible issues that receive increasing political and public attention. However, the accelerating biocultural loss in the Amazon, including the extinction of Indigenous languages, the disruption of ...

Ideas previas y cambio conceptual en astronomía
In this paper we present an experience developed with primary teachers which led to the design of a course, from a constructivistic point of view, on those concepts related to Astronomy included in primary curricula (day and night, seasons, moon phases).

Epistemic opacity in Antarctic science: Unknowing the last frontier
Abstract Antarctica is facing intensifying pressures from climate change, industrial fishing, tourism and renewed geopolitical competition, even as scientific activity on the continent reaches unprecedented levels. We argue that this proliferation of research often fails to deliver the integrated, policy‐relevant knowledge needed for precautionary ...

El cambio conceptual: una teoría en evolución
ABSTRACT: The conceptual change model assumes a continuity or a breakup between everyday and scientific knowledge. Analysing those assumptions and exploring new perspectives (such as, duality, incompatibility, or independence) improve the comprehension of epistemological and ontological obligations in science teaching. This paper tries to go beyond the

Naturalización de la fenomenología: idealismo fenomenológico trascendental, cambio conceptual y "cambio de mundo" [PDF]
Con esta tesis pretendo presentar un modelo de naturalización de la fenomenología que sirva de base para establecer una epistemología y, por lo tanto, una ontología7 adecuadas para las ciencias cognitivas. Dicho esto, esta no es una tesis de, ni sobre, ciencias cognitivas, sino sobre la viabilidad, consistencia y necesidad de un proyecto de ...

Abstract Remote sensing studies show that ephemeral forest regeneration is widespread in the tropics, limiting the climate and biodiversity benefits from net increases in forest cover. Socioeconomic, biophysical and landscape variables can help explain the spatial distribution of reforestation reversals.
