Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.

The obsolescence of protected area categories in a polycrisis world

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Current global conservation models face significant limitations in addressing the global polycrisis, and the constraints of the International Union for Conservation of Nature protected area (PA) classification system are part of the issue. The principles of the new conservation paradigm—governance, equity, and interculturality—are not viable ...

Areas of high risk for mammalian biodiversity and nature's contributions to people under global warming

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Climate change has reached unprecedented levels, causing frequent extreme events like droughts and fires. These changes are driving a sharp rise in extinction risk for mammals and threatening key Nature's Contributions to People (NCP) such as clean water, air quality, and climate regulation.

Climate refugia identification as high‐priority areas to improve ecosystem conservation in central Chile

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Climate refugia through the integration of topographic and biodiversity features offer a practical method to expand protection networks in central Chile. Our results show that the inclusion of relatively small climate refugia areas to protection networks can greatly improve ecosystem representation, advancing toward meeting Target 3 of the Kunming ...

A guide to host genetic determinants of female microbiome composition across distinct anatomical niches

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Host genetic variation in immune regulation and cell signalling genes was associated with microbiome composition across vaginal, gut, oral and skin sites, while associations involving metabolic function, epithelial barrier integrity and hormonal processes were more site‐specific. Overall, our findings indicate that host genetic variation contributes to
