Bacteriome Diversity of Soil Islands Associated With Bromeliads From Ironstone Outcrops in the Brazilian Pantanal

International Journal of Microbiology
Knowledge about the diversity and distribution of microorganisms in natural environments is essential for understanding the dominant microbial groups and predicting their ecological functions. This study is aimed at describing the bacteriome diversity in

A stomatal safety-efficiency trade-off constrains responses to leaf dehydration

Nature Communications, 2019
Stomata enable gas exchange for photosynthesis but close to promote survival during drought. Here, Henry et al. provide evidence for a safety-efficiency trade-off whereby plants with greater stomatal conductance under well-watered conditions are more ...

The contribution of statistical physics to evolutionary biology

, 2011
Evolutionary biology shares many concepts with statistical physics: both deal with populations, whether of molecules or organisms, and both seek to simplify evolution in very many dimensions.

Ecosystem size predicts eco-morphological variability in a postglacial diversification [PDF]

, 2017
Identifying the processes by which new phenotypes and species emerge has been a long-standing effort in evolutionary biology. Young adaptive radiations provide a model to study patterns of morphological and ecological diversification in environmental ...

Metascientific views: Challenge and opportunity for philosophy of biology in practice [PDF]

, 2017
In this paper I take evolutionary biology as an example to reflect on the role of philosophy and on the transformations that philosophy is constantly stimulated to do in its own approach when dealing with science.

Promoting transparency in evolutionary biology, ecology, and ornithology [PDF]

The Auk, 2016
ABSTRACT Transparency regarding methods, data, and results is essential to scientific progress. However, in ecological, evolutionary, and ornithological research, transparency is often insufficient, and the distribution of published results may often be biased.

Fuzzy species limits in Mediterranean gorgonians (Cnidaria, Octocorallia): inferences on speciation processes [PDF]

, 2017
The study of the interplay between speciation and hybridization is of primary importance in evolutionary biology. Octocorals are ecologically important species whose shallow phylogenetic relationships often remain to be studied. In the Mediterranean Sea,

Community assembly and the emergence of ecosystem pattern

Scientia Marina, 2001
A fundamental problem challenging natural scientists is to understand how macroscopic patterns, such as population abundance distributions and element ratios, emerge and are sustained in ecosystems, given that evolution typically operates most strongly ...
