High Fluctuating Asymmetry in Birds in a Large Neotropical City
Urbanisation is a powerful environmental force, negatively impacting the few organisms that persist in urban areas. Here, we investigated the relationship between urbanisation intensity and Fluctuating asymmetry (FA) in birds. Our results suggest that urbanisation (even at lower intensities) may impose stronger genetic and/or environmental stress on ...

Our study shows that the generalized structure of urban plant–pollinator interactions is mirrored in the mechanisms that shape them, as interactions are governed primarily by less restrictive drivers such as abundance and spatiotemporal overlap rather than by trait matching.
