The mutualism-antagonism continuum in Neotropical palm-frugivore interactions: from interaction outcomes to ecosystem dynamics. [PDF]
Biol Rev Camb Philos Soc, 2022 ABSTRACT Frugivory, that is feeding on fruits, pulp or seeds by animals, is usually considered a mutualism when interactions involve seed dispersal, and an antagonism when it results in the predation and destruction of seeds. Nevertheless, most frugivory interactions involve both benefits and disadvantages for plants, and the net interaction outcomes ...

Collared Peccary Wallows are Hubs of Animal Activity and Diversity in a Central American Wet Forest. [PDF]
Ecol EvolCollared peccary wallows are used by a diverse assemblage of vertebrates in a Central American tropical wet forest. Wallows had significantly higher vertebrate activity and diversity compared to surrounding forest. Wallow visitors included 13 amphibian, 2 reptile, 11 bird, and 16 mammal species, engaged in behaviors including reproduction, drinking ...

Two rodent suborders have evolved missing amino acids in the lipid-binding region of apolipoprotein E. [PDF]
LipidsAbstract The order Rodentia comprises nearly 45% of all extant taxa, currently organized into 31 living families, some 450 genera, and roughly 2010 species (Kelt & Patton, 2020). Considering that rodents began evolving at least 66 million years ago, it is not surprising that they have diversified into five distinct suborders.

, 1991 The isolation of Leishmania (V.) lainsoni is recorded for the first time from a wild animal, the rodent Agouti paca (Rodentia: Dasyproctidae), from Pará State, north Brazil. Isolates of the parasite were made from apparently normal skin of 3 specimens of this rodent captured on the Island of Tocantins, in the municipality of Tucuruí, an area ...

Trait-based climate vulnerability of native rodents in southwestern Mexico. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2020 We used a trait‐based approach together with climate exposure models to evaluate the potential vulnerability of rodent species to climate change in Oaxaca, the most mammal‐diverse state in Mexico. Depending on the climate scenario, most to all species were projected to have some level of vulnerability with narrow and restricted range species projected ...

Pitfalls of using sequence databases for heterologous expression studies – a technical review
The Journal of Physiology, Volume 601, Issue 9, Page 1611-1623, 1 May 2023., 2023 Abstract figure legend Projects involving heterologous gene expression are often characterised by similar steps. Initially, database research (A) is necessary to retrieve information of full or partial sequences of a gene of interest. A multitude of genome assemblies are annotated and deposited in public databases or are available for refined search ...

POTENTIAL HISTORY: READING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FROM INDIGENOUS KNOWLEDGES*
History and Theory, Volume 62, Issue 1, Page 3-29, March 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT Until the beginning of the twentieth century, history, as a core concept of the political project of modernity, was highly concerned with the future. The many crimes, genocides, and wars perpetuated in the name of historical progress eventually caused unavoidable fractures in the way Western philosophies of history have understood change over ...
