Globally widespread weeds show preadaptation to non‐analogue climates: a common garden approach

Oikos, EarlyView.
Climatic niche shifts have been documented for plant species introduced into new regions, however the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Niche shifts into novel climates are particularly difficult to predict as previous occurrence data cannot reveal whether these novel climates are within species' fundamental niche limits.

Penile erection and ejaculation induced by the serotonin releasers in male rats [PDF]

, 2004
Methodological shortcomings present in elicitation of penile erection and ejaculation in anesthetized rats. The present study has demonstrated that intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of p-chloromethamphetamine (PCMA ; 1-10 mg/kg) and fenfluramine (FEN ; 1 ...

Belief and the beast: Religion and attitudes towards tigers in Central India

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Human perceptions of wildlife are critical to shaping conservation outcomes, particularly in landscapes where people coexist with large carnivores. Religion, a deeply rooted sociocultural force, remains underexplored in the context of human–wildlife conflict.

Nutritional properties, traditional uses and potential new applications for the sotol plant (Asparagaceae, Convallarioideae): A review

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Sotol (Dasylirion spp.) is a resilient desert plant that sustains ecosystems, cultures and livelihoods in Chihuahua Desert. Our review highlights its nutritional properties, traditional uses and potential new applications in food, pharmaceuticals, renewable energy and water remediation. By synthesizing evidence across disciplines, we show how sotol can

Management and incipient domestication of Chamaedorea tepejilote in agroforestry systems in Mexico

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Native wild plants are key elements in addressing global biodiversity loss and supporting sustainable food systems. We investigated how rural communities in Mexico manage Chamaedorea tepejilote, a wild palm with edible male inflorescences, by combining ethnobotanical, genetic, morphological and ecological approaches.

Some basics on tolerances [PDF]

In this note we deal with sensitivity analysis of combinatorial optimization problems and its fundamental term, the tolerance. For three classes of objective functions (?, ?, MAX) we prove some basic properties on upper and lower tolerances. We show that

Leaf heat tolerance in a native Californian shrub responds in expected and unexpected ways to differences in range, season, and sunlight exposure

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Earth's ecosystems are experiencing wide‐ranging impacts from global climate change, including increased average and extreme temperatures. These temperature shifts can drastically affect plant physiology, threatening the future of even common plant species. Here, we focus on photosynthetic function in a native Southern California shrub species.

Combinatorial optimization tolerances calculated in linear time [PDF]

For a given optimal solution to a combinatorial optimization problem, we show, under very natural conditions, the equality of the minimal values of upper and lower tolerances, where the upper tolerances are calculated for the given optimal solution and ...

Quantifying the embodied‐carbon premium of RC transfer beams via automated design

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Transfer structures in reinforced concrete (RC) buildings enable architectural flexibility but often increase material use and embodied carbon. This study introduces an automated framework to quantify the embodied‐carbon premium associated with such systems. For each parametric configuration, two equivalent RC frames—one regular and one with a
