Biodiversity in mountain soils above the treeline
ABSTRACT Biological diversity in mountain ecosystems has been increasingly studied over the last decade. This is also the case for mountain soils, but no study to date has provided an overall synthesis of the current state of knowledge. Here we fill this gap with a first global analysis of published research on cryptogams, microorganisms, and fauna in ...

Animal medical systems from Apis to apes: history, recent advances and future perspectives
ABSTRACT Animal medical systems encompass a wide range of behaviours aimed at maintaining or improving health.
