Ecological niche modeling of the genus Papio
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2018 AbstractObjectiveEcological niche modeling (ENM) has been used to assess how abiotic variables influence species distributions and diversity. Baboons are broadly distributed throughout Africa, yet the degree of climatic specialization is largely unexplored for individual taxa. Also, the influence of climate on baboon phylogenetic divergence is unknown.

An evaluation of transferability of ecological niche models [PDF]
Ecography, 2018 Ecological niche modeling (ENM) is used widely to study species’ geographic distributions. ENM applications frequently involve transferring models calibrated with environmental data from one region to other regions or times that may include novel environmental conditions.

Ecological niche modeling of bioindicator mosses
, 2021 As briófitas podem ser utilizadas como bioindicadoras, no entanto, uma das limitações desse uso são as lacunas no conhecimento sobre a ocorrência das espécies. Assim, o presente estudo teve como objetivo realizar a modelagem de nicho ecológico para Helicodontium capillare (Hedw.) A.Jaeger e Thuidium tomentosum Schimp., duas espécies de musgos ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Ecologic Niche Modeling of Blastomyces dermatitidis in Wisconsin
PLoS ONE, 2008 Blastomycosis is a potentially fatal mycosis that is acquired by inhaling infectious spores of Blastomyces dermatitidis present in the environment. The ecology of this pathogen is poorly understood, in part because it has been extremely difficult to identify the niche(s) it occupies based on culture isolation of the organism from environmental samples ...

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

A test of species' mobility hypothesis in ecological niche modelling
Journal of Biogeography, 2022 AbstractAimEcological niche modelling (ENM) or species distribution modelling is increasingly used in decision‐making regarding land use and biodiversity conservation. Model accuracy is essential, but can be affected by modelling choices, including the critical and ubiquitous question of how to define a model training domain.

Spatial biology in cancer epigenetics
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Spatial epigenomics combines molecular profiling with tissue architecture to reveal how gene regulation is organized within intact tissues. In cancer, these technologies uncover the mechanisms driving tumor heterogeneity and microenvironmental interactions, opening new opportunities for biomarker discovery and precision medicine.

Local-scale models reveal ecological niche variability in amphibian and reptile communities from two contrasting biogeographic regions [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Ecological Niche Models (ENMs) are widely used to describe how environmental factors influence species distribution. Modelling at a local scale, compared to a large scale within a high environmental gradient, can improve our understanding of ecological ...

Leaftronics: Bio‐Fractal Scaffolds From Leaf Venation for Low‐Waste Electronics
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.“Leaftronics” transforms naturally evolved leaf venation into quasi‐fractal scaffolds for sustainable electronics. Polymer‐infiltrated leaf skeletons can be used to fabricate ultra‐smooth, reflow‐ and thin‐film‐compatible decomposable substrates, while making the same lignocellulose networks conducting results in flexible transparent electrodes.
