Fish on Fire: Shifts in Amazonian fish communities after floodplain forest fires

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 60, Issue 8, Page 1637-1646, August 2023., 2023
Amazonian fish communities change after floodplain forest fires. Unburnt forests have diverse fish communities, with a large proportion of unique and small omnivorous species. In contrast, carnivores and detritivores become more common in fire scars and white‐sand savannas formed after forest fires. Less omnivore fish after forest fires can reduce tree

Seasonality in niche occupation revealed through bird community functional structure in the southern Atlantic rainforest

Ibis, Volume 165, Issue 3, Page 986-997, July 2023., 2023
Seasonal variation in tropical and subtropical systems can have different effects on bird species depending on the resources they use and how they use them. However, despite recent research advances, knowledge of the drivers of the presence and abundance of species in different seasons is still limited for most tropical bird species.

Transdermal drug delivery in horses: An in vitro comparison of skin structure and permeation of two model drugs at various anatomical sites

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 235-245, June 2023., 2023
Background – Oral and parenteral drug delivery in horses can be difficult. Equine‐specific transdermal drug formulations offer improved ease of treatment; development of such formulations requires a deeper understanding of the structural and chemical tissue barrier of horse skin. Hypothesis/Objectives – To compare the structural composition and barrier

Taste for pollen comes in different shapes: Consumption by tadpoles from three divergent ecomorphotypes

Journal of Zoology, Volume 320, Issue 1, Page 42-52, May 2023., 2023
We studied pollen consumption and breakage of pollen grains by tadpoles of three different ecomorphotypes likely to influence ease of access to different feeding microhabitats. We found tadpoles adapted to feed on the water surface (where pollen is first available to aquatic food webs) to eat more pollen and break relatively more grains, which is ...

Trust your guts? The effect of gut section on diet composition and impact of Mus musculus on islands using metabarcoding

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 3, March 2022., 2022
In this article, we assessed the differences in diet estimates and potential ecological and economic impact measurements according to the section of the gastrointestinal tract (stomach, small and large intestine) analysed. We aimed to test which section(s) provided a better diet representation and putative impact of a common inland invader.

The skin microbiota in equine pastern dermatitis: a case‐control study of horses in Switzerland

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 32, Issue 6, Page 646-e172, December 2021., 2021
Background – Equine pastern dermatitis (EPD), a multifactorial syndrome, manifests as skin lesions of variable severity in the pastern area. Despite the widespread use of antibacterial therapy for treating this condition, little is known about the contributing bacteria.

Scientific Opinion on application EFSA‐GMO‐NL‐2016‐132 for authorisation of genetically modified of insect‐resistant and herbicide‐tolerant soybean DAS–81419–2 × DAS–44406–6 for food and feed uses, import and processing submitted in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003 by Dow Agrosciences LCC

EFSA Journal, Volume 18, Issue 11, November 2020., 2020
Abstract Soybean DAS–8419–2 × DAS–44406–6 was developed to provide protection against certain lepidopteran pests and tolerance to 2,4–dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and other related phenoxy herbicides, and glyphosate‐ and glufosinate ammonium‐containing herbicides.

El Niño impacts on human‐modified tropical forests: Consequences for dung beetle diversity and associated ecological processes

Biotropica, Volume 52, Issue 2, Page 252-262, March 2020., 2020
Abstract Our knowledge of how tropical forest biodiversity and functioning respond to anthropogenic and climate‐associated stressors is limited. Research exploring El Niño impacts are scarce or based on single post‐disturbance assessments, and few studies assess forests previously affected by anthropogenic disturbance.

Correlação entre função pulmonar, postura e composição corporal em pacientes com asma

Revista Portuguesa de Pneumologia, 2013
ResumoObjetivosA asma pode resultar em alterações posturais causadas pelo aumento da atividade da musculatura acessória, respiratória e insuflação pulmonar. Nosso objetivo primário foi avaliar a correlação entre função pulmonar e postura em pacientes adultos com asma.
