Comparative Genomics and Heterologous Complementation Reveal Sequence and Structural Divergence of Selected Transcription Factors From Spathaspora passalidarum

Yeast, EarlyView.
Comparative genomic analyses identified substantial sequence and structural differences between transcription factors from Spathaspora passalidarum and their Saccharomyces cerevisiae counterparts. Heterologous expression of YAP1 and MSN‐like genes in corresponding S.

Taxogenomic Characterization and Comparative Genomic Analysis of Hermanozyma buritii sp. nov., f.a., a Yeast Species Isolated From Plants and Soil

Yeast, EarlyView.
Isolation of the novel yeast species Hernanozyma buritii sp. nov. from soil and plant in Brazil, followed by phylogenetic characterization and genome analysis, highlighting its relationship with closely related taxa and genomic features associated with mating, pulcherriminic acid biosynthesis, and iron‐dependent pigmentation.

Behavioural flexibility within ecological constraints: Local‐scale landscape composition modulates habitat selection and foraging strategies in a forest‐dependent carnivorous bat

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Animals increasingly move through landscapes very different from those in which their ecological strategies evolved, posing new challenges for ecologically specialized species. By tracking a forest‐dependent carnivorous bat across contrasting landscapes, this study shows how local habitat composition shapes landscape use, while behavioural flexibility ...

The Evolution of Male Weapons Is Associated with the Type of Breeding Site in a Clade of Neotropical Frogs

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Male weaponry evolution is often linked to male–male competition, but its relationship with breeding site type remains unclear. Using Leptodactylinae frogs, we found a macroevolutionary correlation between breeding site type and weapon evolution. Also, gains and losses of weapons occurred more frequently in exposed‐breeding sites, an unexpected finding.

Pode-se construir modelos baseados na relação entre contextos sociais e saúde?

Cadernos de Saúde Pública, 1998
À medida que se conhece melhor a complexidade das relações entre os contextos sócio-econômico, ambiental e a saúde da população, parece claro que os conceitos de saúde-doença, embora não sendo independentes, não são sinônimos.

Unravelling Evolutionary Dynamics of Female Sexual Cannibalism and Male Reproductive Strategies in Spiders

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Sexual cannibalism (SC), where one mating partner consumes the other in the context of mating, is especially prevalent among spiders. However, the evolution of SC in spiders is still not fully understood. We review key hypotheses for SC and explore how female‐initiated SC has driven the evolution of various male counter‐adaptations to mitigate its ...

Urbanization and Vector Species Shape Avian Malaria Prevalence in Mosquitoes

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Avian malaria prevalence was assessed in two mosquito species across urban and peri‐urban habitats. No infections were detected in either species in urban areas, while a 2.53% prevalence was found in the native Culex pipiens from peri‐urban sites, highlighting the influence of urbanization on parasite transmission dynamics.

Morphotype Bias, Morph Specific Recruitment and No Elevation‐Life History Relation in High Altitude Mesquite Lizard Populations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Site‐level differences in population growth (λ) and phenotype frequencies. Mountain silhouettes represent the three study sites. Morph relative abundances are shown in the colored vertical bar. Point estimates and confidence intervals of λ for each site are displayed below, with the dashed line marking the threshold for demographic stability (λ = 1 ...

Enhanced fish detection sensitivity in aquatic systems using environmental RNA

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Environmental RNA (eRNA) can potentially augment the biological monitoring ability of the established environmental DNA (eDNA) application in conservation. Despite faster degradation, environmental RNA could offer unique advantages: it may help reduce the legacy signal compared to eDNA, provide insights into physiological status through gene ...
