Click Before You Pipette: Building Foundational Pipetting Skills and Confidence With an Interactive Prelaboratory Simulation

open access: yesBiochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Correctly setting and reading a manual air displacement micropipette is an essential yet challenging skill for life‐science students. The incorrect delivery of volumes affects both experimental outcomes and data interpretation, potentially reducing student confidence in the laboratory.

Individualised niches: an integrative conceptual framework across behaviour, ecology, and evolution

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Individuals differ. While seemingly trivial, this insight has nevertheless led to paradigm shifts, as three key fields of organismal biology have seen marked changes in key concepts over the past few decades. In animal behaviour, it has become increasingly recognised that behavioural differences among individuals can be stable over time and ...

Fear of grazing rivals the toxin‐inducing effects of nutrients in two marine harmful algae – a meta‐analysis

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT One of the major subfields of chemical ecology is the study of toxins and how they mediate interactions between organisms. Toxins produced by harmful algae (phycotoxins) impact a wide variety of organisms connected to the marine food web. Significant research efforts have thus aimed to identify the ecological and evolutionary drivers behind ...

Building phenotypic character matrices for phylogenetic inference: exploration of 35 years of practice

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent methodological development in phylogenetic inference has focused predominantly on molecular data. However, renewed interest in other data types, particularly morphological data, has followed from the increased recognition of the power of total evidence and tip‐dating approaches, including fossil data, for inference of time‐scaled trees ...
