Descobreixen una nova planta carnívora gràcies a Facebook

open access: yes, 2016
Cada any es descobreixen noves espècies d'éssers vius que no havien sigut mai identificades. La majoria són microorganismes i organismes de mida petita o que viuen en llocs molt amagats i exclusius.

Analysis of substitution rates showed that TLR5 is evolving at different rates among mammalian groups

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019
Background Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are the most widely studied innate immunity receptors responsible for recognition of invading pathogens. Among the TLR family, TLR5 is the only that senses and recognizes flagellin, the major protein of bacterial ...

Ensemble Modeling Reveals Severe Contraction of Dhole's (<i>Cuon alpinus</i> Pallas, 1811) Suitable Habitat and Future Climate Refugia Across China. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
The dhole (Cuon alpinus), an endangered carnivore species and one of China's highest‐level protected animals, faces significant threats from both climate change and human disturbance. Since the 1980s, dhole habitat has dramatically shrunk by approximately half, with the current main stronghold being the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau.

More pumas (Puma concolor) does not change perceptions: The mismatched response of ranchers to the presence of a top carnivore

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Human‐wildlife conflicts (HWCs) are one of the most critical conservation challenges worldwide. Large carnivores are frequently at the centre of these conflicts because of the perceived and real threats they pose to livestock and human safety.

The genome sequence of the Eurasian river otter, Lutra lutra Linnaeus 1758 [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesWellcome Open Research, 2020
We present a genome assembly from an individual male Lutra lutra (the Eurasian river otter; Vertebrata; Mammalia; Eutheria; Carnivora; Mustelidae). The genome sequence is 2.44 gigabases in span.

Knee height is often right: evaluating device height effects on camera trapping rate

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Camera trap deployment height can introduce systematic biases in detection trapping rates across species of different body sizes. Combining 172 paired sampling points in five experiments across Europe, North America and Africa, our results show that low cameras significantly increase detections of small‐ and medium‐sized species, whereas high cameras ...

Serial disparity in the carnivoran backbone unveils a complex adaptive role in metameric evolution

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Figueirido et al. use a 3D geometric morphometric approach to study functional among-species disparity in the vertebral column of Carnivora, as well as assessing the effect of different sampling methods on homology.

Demographic buffering in natural populations: A multi‐level perspective

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We introduce a multi‐level framework that unites stochastic elasticities with nonlinear selection to test demographic buffering. Applying it across mammals reveals a key insight: ecological robustness to variability often decouples from evolutionary constraint, reshaping how we understand resilience under environmental stochasticity.
