Management and incipient domestication of Chamaedorea tepejilote in agroforestry systems in Mexico

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Native wild plants are key elements in addressing global biodiversity loss and supporting sustainable food systems. We investigated how rural communities in Mexico manage Chamaedorea tepejilote, a wild palm with edible male inflorescences, by combining ethnobotanical, genetic, morphological and ecological approaches.

Influence of researcher presence towards nest attendance and breeding of barn owls Tyto javanica javanica

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Human disturbance to nesting raptors can influence breeding success, especially during early breeding. This study examined the impact of researcher presence, a relatively low impact human disturbance, on eastern barn owls Tyto javanica javanica during monitoring of 57 nest‐boxes in oil palm plantations in Malaysia over a period of 30 months.

Tree Squirrels Selectively Disperse High‐Quality Acorns Away From Tree Trunks

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Acorn quality and squirrel feeding behavior significantly structured spatial dispersal patterns of two Californian oak species. Non‐infested acorns were preferentially selected for embryo excision and dispersed farther than infested ones. Acorns were fully consumed near tree trunks, signaling rapid feeding in safe refuges, whereas non‐eaten, partially ...

Some Tuco‐Tucos Hide More Than Others: An Integrative Approach Reveals Cryptic Diversity in Ctenomys (Rodentia: Ctenomyidae) From Central Argentina

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Here, we adopt an integrative framework (molecular phylogenetics and geometric morphometrics) to reassess patterns of diversity and differentiation across this region. We analyzed cytochrome b sequences and quantified cranial shape variation. Our analyses indicate the presence of three species groups (mendocinus, talarum, and tucumanus) and two ...

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates

Conservation 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.
