Ecological implications of reduced pollen supply in the alpine: a case study using a dominant cushion plant species [v2; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/3xc]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2014
The reproductive assurance hypothesis states that self-incompatible female plants must produce twice the number of seeds relative to their self-compatible hermaphroditic counterparts to persist in gynodioecious populations.

An open-access platform for camera-trapping data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In southern Mexico, local communities have been playing important roles in the design and collection of wildlife data through camera-trapping in community-based monitoring of biodiversity projects. However, the methods used to store the data have limited

Effective engagement of conservation scientists with decision-makers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
This chapter offers advice on how the conservation science community can effectively engage with decision-makers. The rationales for why we, as scientists, need to do this have been widely discussed in the literature.

Ecological interactions shape the evolution of flower color in communities across a temperate biodiversity hotspot [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution Letters, 2021
AbstractProcesses driving the divergence of floral traits may be integral to the extraordinary richness of flowering plants and the assembly of diverse plant communities. Several models of pollinator-mediated floral evolution have been proposed; floral divergence may (i) be directly involved in driving speciation or may occur after speciation driven by

Laboratory growth of denitrifying water column microbial consortia from deep-sea shipwrecks in the northern Gulf of Mexico [version 3; referees: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2018
Background: Shipwrecks serve as a rich source for novel microbial populations that have largely remained undiscovered. Low temperatures, lack of sunlight, and the availability of substrates derived from the shipwreck’s hull and cargo may provide an ...

Environmental DNA detects biodiversity and ecological features of phytoplankton communities in Mediterranean transitional waters

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
AbstractClimate changes and anthropogenic pressures are causing a biodiversity decline in terms of species number and genetic diversity, reducing the adaptability and evolvability of natural communities. Transitional water ecosystems are more sensitive to habitat reduction and degradation and, thus, are more exposed to biodiversity declines requiring ...

High reproductive synchrony of Acropora (Anthozoa: Scleractinia) in the Gulf of Aqaba, Red Sea [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/4yh]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2015
Coral spawning in the northern Gulf of Aqaba has been reported to be asynchronous, making it almost unique when compared to other regions in the world.

Congruence between breeding and wintering biodiversity hotspots: A case study in farmlands of Western Poland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Farmland landscapes are recognized as important ecosystems, not only for their rich biodiversity but equally so for the human beings who live and work in these places. However, biodiversity varies among sites (spatial change) and among seasons (
