Genetic diversity and IUCN Red List status

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 4, August 2023., 2023
Abstract The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List is an important and widely used tool for conservation assessment. The IUCN uses information about a species’ range, population size, habitat quality and fragmentation levels, and trends in abundance to assess extinction risk.

Validating graph‐based connectivity models with independent presence–absence and genetic data sets

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 3, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Habitat connectivity is a key objective of current conservation policies and is commonly modeled by landscape graphs (i.e., sets of habitat patches [nodes] connected by potential dispersal paths [links]). These graphs are often built based on expert opinion or species distribution models (SDMs) and therefore lack empirical validation from data

Estimation of additive genetic variance when there are gene–environment correlations: Pitfalls, solutions and unexplored questions

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 1245-1258, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Estimating the genetic variation underpinning a trait is crucial to understanding and predicting its evolution. A key statistical tool to estimate this variation is the animal model. Typically, the environment is modelled as an external variable independent of the organism, affecting the focal phenotypic trait via phenotypic plasticity.

Disentangling direct from indirect effects of habitat disturbance on multiple components of biodiversity

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 91, Issue 11, Page 2220-2234, November 2022., 2022
Given that anthropogenic disturbance is one of the most important factors influencing ecological communities, a better understanding of the reciprocity of the various components of biodiversity is needed to predict the development of disturbed natural communities.

Meristic co‐evolution and genomic co‐localization of lateral line scales and vertebrae in Central American cichlid fishes

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2024.
We dissect the co‐evolution and genetic architecture of lateral line scale counts and vertebrae numbers in Neotropical Heroine cichlids. Our phylogenetic comparative analyses recovered a positive correlation between these two traits. Furthermore, our qualitative traits locus (QTL) analyses identified significant genomic co‐localized associations for ...

Thermal plasticity has higher fitness costs among thermally tolerant genotypes of Tigriopus californicus

Functional Ecology, Volume 38, Issue 7, Page 1562-1577, July 2024.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Under climate change, ectotherms will likely face pressure to adapt to novel thermal environments by increasing their upper thermal tolerance and its plasticity, a measure of thermal acclimation. Ectotherm populations with high thermal tolerance are often less thermally
