Population genomic analyses reveal extensive genomic regions within selective sweeps associated with adaptation and demographic history of a wheat fungal pathogen

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Applying population genomics, this study revealed that Pst exhibits slower linkage disequilibrium decay compared to rust fungi with known sexual reproduction, identified extensive hard and soft sweeps linked to Pst adaptation, and demonstrated that crop domestication and breeding programs have significantly influenced pathogen population sizes ...

Insect chemosensory proteins as targets in insecticide resistance and development

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
This review addresses the biological and chemical properties of insect chemosensory proteins (CSPs) and presents their functional advancements, not only in olfaction but also in nonolfactory processes, particularly in relation to insecticide resistance.

Urban Consumption of Thrushes in the Early Roman City of Pollentia, Mallorca (Spain)

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the Roman city of Pollentia (Mallorca, Western Mediterranean), an exceptional zooarchaeological assemblage was recovered from a cesspit dated between the first century BC and the first century ad. The structure, situated in a commercial area adjacent to the forum, was connected to a food shop (taberna) via an underground drainage system ...

Avian diversity changes in traditional agricultural landscapes of Japan over ten years

Oikos, EarlyView.
Agricultural intensification is a leading cause of biodiversity loss worldwide. However, the traditional agroecosystems are often associated with high avian diversity because of their landscape heterogeneity, offering available niches to different bird species.

Relatedness, trait evolution, and climatic niche divergence in mammalian island endemics

Oikos, EarlyView.
Island mammals have influenced ecological and evolutionary theory since Darwin, and many of them provide textbook examples of the dramatic morphological evolution that often occurs in island communities. However, patterns of evolution in the climatic niches of island mammals have yet to be fully explored.

A review and meta‐analysis of host‐plant selection by lepidopteran larvae: no evidence of diet breadth constraints on larval decision‐making

Oikos, EarlyView.
Information processing by herbivorous insects can impair the accuracy of decision‐making during host‐plant selection. Consequently, insects with a narrower diet breadth are expected to be more accurate decision‐makers, as they cope with a smaller set of relevant stimuli.

Comparative Proteomics of Salinity Stress Responses in Fish and Aquatic Invertebrates

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fluctuating salinity is symptomatic of climate change challenging aquatic species. The melting of polar ice, rising sea levels, coastal surface and groundwater salinization, and increased evaporation in arid habitats alter salinity worldwide. Moreover, the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events such as rainstorms and floods increase,

High extinction risk of the endemic tree flora in a hyper‐diverse region of the Amazon

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The rapid global loss of biodiversity, especially in the Neotropics, underscores the need to understand how deforestation impacts endemic plant species' extinction risk and conservation status. Due to limited ranges and habitat specialization, endemics are particularly Vulnerable.

Genomics and morphometry of herbarium specimens elucidate the origin of the Cape Verde date palm (Phoenix atlantica A.Chev.) and highlight its agronomic potential

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As climate change accelerates, breeding resilient crops is urgent. The date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.), a crucial 18 billion USD fruit crop, underpins North African and West Asian oasis agroecosystems. This study investigates the genetics and morphology of its closest wild relative, the endemic and endangered Cape Verde date palm (Phoenix atlantica ...
