Maternal Mosaicism Challenges in Non‐Invasive Prenatal Diagnosis

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, Volume 45, Issue 11, Page 1426-1432, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective To report the incidental detection of maternal somatic mosaicism during the development of exclusion‐based non‐invasive prenatal diagnosis for monogenic disorders (NIPD‐MD) initially indicated for apparently de novo pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants.

Factors influencing the presence of the cinereous vulture Aegypius monachus at carcasses: food preferences and implications for the management of supplementary feeding sites

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 16, Issue 1, Page 25-34, March 2010., 2010
Abstract We studied the factors that determine the presence of the cinereous vulture Aegypius monachus at 134 carcasses experimentally distributed in Special Protection Areas for Birds (SPA) in western and central Spain. Our goals were to assess the use of these carcasses and by‐products in order to find out the cinereous vulture's food preferences and

Modeling rice leaf area index and canopy height in the US Mid‐South region

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2025.
Abstract Crop growth modeling plays a critical role in addressing the global challenges of food scarcity, carbon cycling, and water management. By simulating crop development from environmental factors, these models help predict harvest yield and carbon or water cycle terms and thus can inform policy and investment decisions.

Reproduction parameters of the Iberian hare Lepus granatensis at the edge of its range

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 14, Issue 4, Page 434-443, December 2008., 2008
Abstract In order to provide a basis for the sustainable exploitation of the heavily hunted Iberian hare Lepus granatensis, we compared its reproductive parameters at the northern edge of its range, where it occurs at low densities, with those reported in other studies elsewhere within the species' range.

The Agroecological Transition of Farms in the Ecuadorian Andes Through the Lens of the Main Agroecological Structure

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 424-440, 30 January 2025.
ABSTRACT Many sectors of society have urged a transition from modern conventional agriculture to more sustainable alternatives. One of the most frequently mentioned is agroecology, due to its potential to improve soil health, promote agrobiodiversity, food sovereignty, and regenerate ecosystem functions.

Sex‐selective harvesting of polar bears Ursus maritimus

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 14, Issue 1, Page 52-60, March 2008., 2008
Abstract We explored limits and consequences of male‐biased harvesting of polar bears Ursus maritimus using a simulated population based on empirically‐derived estimates of age‐specific rates of survival and reproduction. The maximum sustainable yield (MSY) was identified as the total kill in which the number of females that could be taken resulted in ≤

Genetic implications of reduced survival of male red deer Cervus elaphus under harvest

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 12, Issue 4, Page 427-441, December 2006., 2006
Abstract We use simple, multivariate evolutionary models to evaluate the short‐term potential for size‐selective harvest to reduce genetic variability and alter life history in cervids. These genetic effects limit sustainable levels of harvest of the animals because they determine how changes in sex ratio, generation length and traits contributing to ...
