Entomological and community‐related risk factors for Chagas disease were assessed through peridomestic sampling, calculation of entomological indices and surveys of community knowledge, attitudes and practices. Forty‐six triatomines, all identified as Triatoma pallidipennis, were collected, and all specimens showed natural infection with Trypanosoma ...

Diversification and coexistence amid widespread and persistent gene flow in Andean trees
Andean Prunus species diversify into and occupy distinct elevation zones, remaining morphologically distinct. Yet, ancient introgression and recent admixture cross both phylogenetic and ecological distances. This suggests these species function as a long‐lived syngameon rather than fully isolated lineages, which may help explain how tree diversity ...

The phylogenetically conserved trade‐off between the investment in root hairs and mycorrhization formation. Summary Plants take up nutrients from the soil while investing in absorptive root surface or mycorrhizal partners. Root hairs – a major structure for nutrient uptake and cheap to build – increase the absorptive root surface.

Trait‐based plant ecology: some history and some future
Schematic of plant species range boundaries, some mechanisms that might set them, and some traits that might explain them. Summary Since around the year 2000, trait‐based ecology has become self‐aware as a strand of research within ecology. How did this happen? What is trait‐based ecology now? And where might it go in future?

The phagostimulation and reproductive effects of individual essential amino acids, without other nutrient except fructose, were investigated. Methionine, Arginine and Leucine display significantly higher phagostimulation strength than fructose. Arginine and Methionine showed a significant improvement in reproductive activity compared to other tested ...

Drought resistance is influenced by soil water uptake depth in dryland shrubs
Higher drought resistance was associated with shifts from shallow to deep soil water uptake under drier conditions, with both covarying with functional traits in drylands. Abstract Climate change exacerbates aridity in dry shrublands leading to different responses of coexisting shrubs to drought, including different resistance (capacity to sustain ...

Abstract Introduction Open ecosystems, such as native grasslands and savannas, cover vast tropical areas and sustain multiple ecosystem services. However, they face intense degradation due to conversion into pastures with exotic grasses that invade natural ecosystems.

Rethinking EU environmental law: Towards the ecologisation of the European legal order
Abstract This article critically examines the structural limitations of the EU's environmental legal framework in the context of the current ecological crisis and explores the potential transition towards an ecocentric paradigm. While the EU has developed one of the most advanced environmental regulatory systems globally, its effectiveness remains ...
