Engaging the public in plant science: Communication facilitators and barriers of scaling up a citizen science campaign

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Volunteers have been involved in nature observations for decades through citizen science initiatives, providing large data sets as well as problem identification that allow a more complete understanding of many natural phenomena. Although communication is a core component in citizen science, the key factors that determine its effectiveness in ...

Phylogenomics of a new fungal phylum reveals multiple waves of reductive evolution across Holomycota

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Unicellular fungi with free-living flagellated stages (zoospores) remain poorly known. Here, Galindo et al. sequence single-cell genomes for two atypical parasitic fungi with amoeboid zoospores, and re-evaluate the branching order of early-diverging ...

Cultivating biophilia: Domestic gardens foster positive emotions towards wildlife, with gardening influence shaped by species' ecological functions

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding how different types of nature interactions influence emotional responses to animal species is especially important in the context of the biodiversity crisis, as these emotions can shape conservation‐related attitudes and behaviours. Gardening is recognised as one such interaction, although its influence likely depends on the type

A novel and dual digestive symbiosis scales up the nutrition and immune system of the holobiont Rimicaris exoculata

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2022
Background In deep-sea hydrothermal vent areas, deprived of light, most animals rely on chemosynthetic symbionts for their nutrition. These symbionts may be located on their cuticle, inside modified organs, or in specialized cells.

Leaf longevity and structure, fruit mass and phenology in 52 cultivated varieties and wild accessions of olive

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Although phenology has long been recognized as a critical feature for the adaptation of organisms to their local environment, until recently, phenological events have seldom been considered in the broader context of trait‐based ecology.

A multi‐trait evaluation of patterns and fitness consequences of breeding phenology plasticity with nocturnal warming and food restriction in a lizard

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Faced with climate warming, ectothermic species shift their breeding phenology, which is in part attributed to an acceleration of gestation or incubation in warmer environments.

Global determinants of home range sizes in felids: Evidence of human disturbance impact

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study is the first to demonstrate the influence of anthropogenic factors and species richness in felids on home range size across the entire felid taxon. Felids are a taxon of major interest in conservation biology, and gaining a comprehensive view of their spatial ecology will help derive global conservation recommendations.
