How methanotrophs respond to pH: A review of ecophysiology
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Varying pH globally affects terrestrial microbial communities and biochemical cycles. Methanotrophs effectively mitigate methane fluxes in terrestrial habitats. Many methanotrophs grow optimally at neutral pH.

Decreasing parental task specialization promotes conditional cooperation
Scientific Reports, 2017 How much to invest in parental care and by who remain puzzling questions fomented by a sexual conflict between parents. Negotiation that facilitates coordinated parental behaviour may be key to ease this costly conflict.

Reply to Farine and Aplin: Chimpanzees choose their association and interaction partners [PDF]
, 2019 Farine and Aplin (1) question the validity of our study reporting group-specific social dynamics in chimpanzees (2). As alternative to our approach, Farine and Aplin advance a “prenetwork permutation” methodology that tests against random assortment (3).

Functional traits of expanding, thicket-forming shrubs: contrasting strategies between exotic and native species [PDF]
, 2017 Woody expansion has been documented for decades in many different systems globally, often yielding vast changes in ecosystem functioning. While causes and consequences of woody expansion have been well documented, few studies have addressed plant ...

N-hydroxypipecolic acid primes plants for enhanced microbial pattern-induced responses
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 The bacterial elicitor flagellin induces a battery of immune responses in plants. However, the rates and intensities by which metabolically-related defenses develop upon flagellin-sensing are comparatively moderate.

Geobacter, Anaeromyxobacter and Anaerolineae populations are enriched on anodes of root exudate-driven microbial fuel cells in rice field soil [PDF]
, 2015 Plant-based sediment microbial fuel cells (PMFCs) couple the oxidation of root exudates in living rice plants to current production. We analysed the composition of the microbial community on anodes from PMFC with natural rice field soil as substratum for
