PHYLOGENETIC RELATIONSHIPS AMONG THE CHROMISTA: A REVIEW AND PRELIMINARY ANALYSIS [PDF]
Abstract— It is now well established that the algae do not constitute a monophyletic group. A number of brown and golden algae are related to various heterotrophic protists, which have recently been characterized and described as a kingdom, the Chromista.

The gnateaters Conopophaga spp. are insectivorous passerines commonly observed in high and humid forests, where they remain lodged in thin branches and, sometimes, they fly to the ground to catch insects. The insectivorous feeding habit is related to low

Sintomatologia, etiologia e manejo de doenças causadas por fungos e chromistas na cultura da batata [PDF]
A batata é a solanácea de maior importância econômica no agronegócio mundial. A ocorrência de doenças causadas por fungos e chromistas (oomicetos e cercozoários) pode comprometer seriamente a cultura, o rendimento e a qualidade de tubérculos. Entre os danos causados destacam-se principalmente: falhas de germinação; tombamentos; manchas foliares; lesões

Phylogenetic and expression dynamics of tomato ClpB/Hsp100 gene under heat stress.
Heat shock proteins (Hsps) are stress-responsive molecular chaperones, which uphold proper protein folding in response to external and internal stresses. The Hsp100 gene family plays a substantial role in thermos-tolerance of plants.

A Pilot Investigation of the Hidden Communities Associated With Dryas octopetala L. (Rosaceae) in Svalbard Using DNA Metabarcoding. [PDF]
A single marker revealed a considerable diversity of organisms associate with Dryas octopetala. The rhizosphere contains more taxa than the phyllosphere. Some taxa are cited for the first time in the Svalbard Archipelago. The use of different DNA marker will increase diversity data in the Svalbard Archipelago.

Geographic, Taxonomic and Metric Gaps in Biodiversity Research Limit Evidence-Based Conservation in Agricultural Landscapes: An Umbrella Review. [PDF]
We systematically reviewed 200 meta‐analyses (gathering over 9000 primary studies) on the effects of agriculture on biodiversity in croplands. Our systematic map of secondary research highlights significant geographical and taxonomic gaps, uncovering an overfocus on simple biodiversity metrics and on individual agricultural practices rather than ...

Expanding Monitoring Capacity for Potential Invasive Species in Arctic Canada With Environmental DNA Metabarcoding. [PDF]
Rapidly changing climatic conditions combined with increasing shipping traffic is going to accelerate the introduction and persistence of marine invasive species in Arctic Canada. To address this emerging threat, we propose seawater environmental DNA metabarcoding on board ships of opportunity (i.e., cruise ships) as a cost‐effective method for ...

Automatic species identification from images for Aotearoa. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Image classification for species identification has applications in areas such as conservation and education. Given New Zealand's geographic isolation and the relatively small number of species present on its islands, there is an opportunity to apply machine learning to enable accurate automatic species identification for Aotearoa, even on ...
