Top‐Down and Bottom‐Up Processes Jointly Explain Mesopredator Movement and Foraging Ecology
This study integrates top‐down (polar bear habitat selection) and bottom‐up (fish distribution) processes to test how mesopredators (ringed seals) balance risk–reward tradeoffs in habitat selection. Ringed seals reduced their space use and foraging time in response to predation risk, yet accepted higher risk when prey diversity was elevated ...

ABSTRACT Conservation hatcheries aim to produce fish for supplementation of wild populations, but hatchery environments may drive phenotypic divergence from wild fish. These diverged traits may have reduced fitness in the wild, which could compromise wild population sustainability and evolutionary potential, such as in response to climate change. Delta

Genetic Rescue: Latest Advances and Applications
ABSTRACT Genetic rescue is the increase in individual or population fitness caused by new genetic variation. It typically involves the deliberate movement of genetically diverse individuals into small and isolated populations to reduce inbreeding and maladaptation while enhancing evolutionary potential.

Semi‐arid ecosystems are particularly vulnerable to elevated N deposition. However, there is still a critical gap in understanding the impact of N:P imbalance by considering biophysical changes and biogeochemical cycle. This study presents the complex scale‐dependent warming and cooling effects due to altered nutrient balance on the Mediterranean semi ...

Revisiting the relationship between stomatal size and speed across species – a meta‐analysis
Summary The rate of stomatal opening and closure in response to changes in light affects leaf photosynthesis and water use. However, it is unclear how strongly stomatal size (SS) and density (SD) influence stomatal conductance (gs) kinetics, and whether variation arises from methodological differences, guard cell type or degree of amphistomaty.

SUMMARY The use of wild relatives to introduce original diversity in the genome of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is an interesting approach to face the challenges of sustainable agriculture and the impact of climate change on wheat production. However, the influence of these wild‐species introgressions on meiosis in inter‐varietal wheat hybrids ...
