High‐elevation endemic plants predicted to lose habitat from changing climate in Washington State

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise High‐elevation plants face unique challenges from potential climate change impacts that will likely require upslope migration into increasingly smaller suitable habitat. This situation is particularly acute for endemic species that by definition occupy small geographic ranges.

Categorization of species as native or nonnative using DNA sequence signatures without a complete reference library. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
New genetic diagnostic approaches have greatly aided efforts to document global biodiversity and improve biosecurity. This is especially true for organismal groups in which species diversity has been underestimated historically due to difficulties ...

Endemic plant species are more palatable to introduced herbivores than non-endemics [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2019
Islands harbour a spectacular diversity and unique species composition. This uniqueness is mainly a result of endemic species that have evolved in situ in the absence of mammal herbivores. However, island endemism is under severe threat by introduced herbivores.

Comparative virology and pathology of Monkeypox virus in Syrian hamsters, C57BL/6, and BALB/c mice: A framework for preclinical model selection

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study compared monkeypox virus (MPXV) infection in three small animal models: Syrian hamsters, C57BL/6 mice, and BALB/c mice. Following intraperitoneal inoculation, Syrian hamsters exhibited the highest susceptibility, with rapid systemic viral dissemination, elevated splenic and renal viral burdens, and severe histopathological damage, followed ...

Long-Term Trends in the Structure and Dynamics of the Fish Communities in Buško Blato Reservoir

open access: yesCroatian Journal of Fisheries, 2020
Buško Blato Reservoir, the third largest hydro accumulation in Europe, is situated in the south-eastern part of the karstic Livanjsko Polje Valley. This aquatic ecosystem is distinguished by a very rich ichthyofauna and the presence of four endemic fish ...

Distribution and species diversity of freshwater crabs of the family Pseudothelphusidae in Colombia (Crustacea: Decapoda: Brachyura)

open access: yesNauplius, 2020
The study of Colombian freshwater crabs has advanced significantly, but species records are scattered across different museums and research institutions. Assuming that museum collections incorporate valuable information in estimating species diversity, a

The demography of invasion: Tephritids of La Reunion, a unique model to study invasion and competition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Despite quarantine procedures, many invasions of polyphagous fruit flies (family Tephritidae) have been observed in various parts of the world. These invasions usually result in decreased numbers of, and niche shifts by, established species, be they ...

Secondary metabolites with ecologic and medicinal implications in Anthemis cretica subsp. petraea from Majella National Park [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Anthemis cretica subsp. petraea (Ten.) Greuter is a plant belonging to the Asteraceae family and endemic of central Italy. In this paper, the first analysisof the ethanolic fraction of samples collected in the Majella National Park is reported.

Isolation, Endemism, and Multiplication of Species in the Darwin Finches [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 1963
In this paper we use multiple-regression analysis to consider the general evolutionary problem of the relative importance of the various factors governing the proliferation of related subspecies or species on member islands of an archipelago. From this quantitative analysis of the relation of isolation to endemism and sympatry' in the Darwin finches ...

A cost‐effective DNA extraction protocol for long‐read sequencing in non‐model plants

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Third‐generation sequencing has revolutionized genomics, enabling in‐depth analysis of genome sequence, structure, and epigenetic features. Yet, extracting high‐quality DNA for long‐read sequencing remains a bottleneck—particularly in non‐model plants, such as mature trees growing in natural environments, which often contain abundant ...
