Summary Genetic load can reduce fitness and hinder adaptation. While its genetic underpinnings are well established, the influence of environmental variation on genetic load is less well characterized, as is the relationship between genetic load and putatively adaptive genetic variation.

This study used ecologically realistic enclosures with pumpkin toadlets to simulate short‐term drought conditions in Brazil's Atlantic Forest. Drought reduced the overall levels of a harmful amphibian fungus, but it also disrupted their protective skin‐associated bacteria and caused the toadlets to cluster in wet areas of the enclosures, which ...

In this study, we examined how morphological traits and species diversity of Pyraloidea moths vary with temperature and vegetation cover along an Andean rainforest gradient in Ecuador. Using 4161 individuals (212 species) and cross‐validating with a larger dataset of 10,337 individuals (749 morpho‐species), we found a near‐linear decrease in diversity ...

Influence of the distance between projectiles in simultaneous multiple impacts on CFRP laminates
The influence of the distance between projectiles in the simultaneous multiple impact phenomenon on CFRP laminate plates was investigated using a numerical model. Abstract Composite structures in the aerospace and railway industries frequently experience single or multiple low‐ or high‐velocity impacts.

Constructal design aplicado a placas com furos elípticos sob flambagem
Placas são elementos amplamente empregados na engenharia estrutural. Em muitas situações é necessária a existência de perfurações nestas placas. Sabe-se ainda que elementos estruturais esbeltos submetidos a cargas de compressão axial podem falhar de ...

Do sexual differences in life strategies make male lizards more susceptible to parasite infection?
Sexual dimorphism in coadaptive host–parasite relationships are poorly understand. The comparative nature of the presented studied as well as the generalisation of the results for the geographic region sampled makes this study of general interest of ecologists, evolutionary biologists, physiologist and parasitologist, among others.

Agricultural soils are substantial receptors of plastic pollution. Plastic crop covers, a facet of agriplastics, may represent an important contribution to microplastic load in agricultural soils. The authors present a nationwide study of agricultural soils in the United Kingdom, comparing microplastic load between sites where plastic crop covers are ...
