Partial mycoheterotrophy: a common strategy in arbuscular mycorrhizal plants?
Proposed autotrophy to mycoheterotrophy continuum among arbuscular mycorrhizal plants. Summary The vast majority of land plants transfer part of the organic carbon they produce by photosynthesis to arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi inside their root cells; the fungi in turn help plants to take up nutrients and water from the soil.

Extent, characteristics and policy applications of Key Biodiversity Areas
ABSTRACT A global standard for the identification of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) was published 10 years ago to provide a unified set of criteria for identifying ‘sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity’. We review the initiative's origins, the KBA identification process, characteristics of the current network, threats, policy

ABSTRACT The paper aims to test the relationship between SDGs and money laundering levels. The empirical study is based on a panel dataset composed of 117 countries, covering many continents and income levels, over the period 2012–2019.

From armed roots to airline routes in South America: A dual imprinting perspective
Abstract Reserch Summary We propose that founding partner relationships can leave distinct imprints on organizations that differ in durability and in how they respond to subsequent changes involving the founding partner. Examining South American airlines founded between 1919 and 1984, we argue and find that such relationships simultaneously create an ...

Museomic phylogenomics of Orthosiinae (Apocynaceae) integrating targeted sequencing and morphology
Abstract Museum collections offer valuable resources for phylogenetic research, especially in taxonomically challenging groups. Here, we present a phylogenetic study of the South American Apocynaceae subtribe Orthosiinae, based on sequencing 835 nuclear genes and chloroplast genomes from ~120 species using a family‐specific probe set and multiple ...

Examining the efficacy of a sanctuary to protect sharks in the Galapagos Marine Reserve
Abstract In 2016, Ecuador established a no‐take marine sanctuary in the northern portion of the Galapagos Marine Reserve (GMR), ostensibly to protect sharks. Arguably because of this, experimental longlining was permitted in the rest of the reserve as part of a compensation package to local fishers. Considering this agreement and very low bycatch rates

As many species shift their geographic ranges coldward due to global warming, communities will undergo “thermophilization”—the increasing relative abundance of warm‐adapted (“thermophilic”) species and the concomitant decrease of cold‐adapted species over time.

ABSTRACT The growing literature on the structural and cultural covariates of homicide rates contain few studies of the role of citizens' prevailing sentiments. Yet population sentiments and perceptions of daily life tell us something about societies beyond official measures of economic and demographic structure, and studies show perceptions of things ...
