Nuclear and chloroplast DNA phylogeography reveals high genetic diversity and postglacial range expansion in Quercus mexicana

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, Volume 110, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Premise Phylogeographical studies are fundamental for understanding factors that influence the spatial distribution of genetic lineages within species. Population expansions and contractions, distribution shifts, and climate changes are among the most important factors shaping the genetic compositions of populations.

The Commission Knocked Out Cold: Laura Serrano and the End of the Mexico City Prohibition of Women's Boxing in the 1990s

open access: yesGender &History, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 1135-1152, October 2023., 2023
Abstract This article examines the conflict over the legalisation of women's boxing in Mexico City in the 1990s. In 1995, Laura Serrano's Women's International Boxing Federation world boxing title put pressure on the legal system that had banned women from professional boxing in the Mexican capital since 1946.

Chasing the Numinous: Hungry Ghosts in the Shadow of the Psychedelic Renaissance

open access: yesJournal of Analytical Psychology, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 638-664, September 2023., 2023
Abstract In recent years a renewed scientific, public and commercial interest in psychedelic medicines can be observed across the globe. As research findings have been generally promising, there is hope for new treatment possibilities for a number of difficult‐to‐treat mental health concerns.

‘Nobody taught her how to be a mother’: The lived experience of mothering without a mother

open access: yesInfant Mental Health Journal: Infancy and Early Childhood, Volume 44, Issue 4, Page 554-571, July 2023., 2023
Abstract Maternal grandmothers play a vital role in the transition to motherhood for their own daughters. The current study adds to this literature by investigating the lived experience of motherhood for women who lacked a meaningful relationship with their mothers.

Low‐cost technologies in a rich ecological context: Hotel California open‐air site at Sierra de Atapuerca, Burgos, Spain

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 38, Issue 5, Page 658-684, July 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Hotel California is part of a network of open‐air Neanderthal sites located in the Sierra de Atapuerca (Burgos, Spain). In this study, we examine the technology of the lithic assemblages recovered from this site's archaeological levels 3 to 7, which are characterised by the use of local raw materials, non‐hierarchical centripetal exploitation ...

Transgenerational effect on sexual reproduction in rotifer populations in relation to the environmental predictability of their habitats

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 68, Issue 6, Page 1041-1054, June 2023., 2023
Abstract One way to cope with predictable environmental fluctuations that affect several generations of individuals is through nongenetic transgenerational effects. Ancestors match the phenotype of their descendants to the environment the latter are expected to experience.

Estimation of additive genetic variance when there are gene–environment correlations: Pitfalls, solutions and unexplored questions

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 1245-1258, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Estimating the genetic variation underpinning a trait is crucial to understanding and predicting its evolution. A key statistical tool to estimate this variation is the animal model. Typically, the environment is modelled as an external variable independent of the organism, affecting the focal phenotypic trait via phenotypic plasticity.

Tourism may threaten wildlife disease refugia

open access: yesConservation Letters, Volume 15, Issue 4, July/August 2022., 2022
Abstract The remoteness and isolation of South American tabletop mountain (tepui) summits may protect against infections that underpin global amphibian declines. Increases in recreational pressure in such unspoiled destinations, and in isolated ecosystems globally, pose a poorly understood risk of wildlife disease introduction, especially in supposedly

Simulating drifting fish aggregating device trajectories to identify potential interactions with endangered sea turtles. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol
Abstract Purse‐seine fishers using drifting fish aggregating devices (dFADs), mainly built with bamboo, plastic buoys, and plastic netting, to aggregate and catch tropical tuna, deploy 46,000–65,000 dFADs per year in the Pacific Ocean. Some of the major concerns associated with this widespread fishing device are potential entanglement of sea turtles ...

Orthographic consistency influences morphological processing in reading aloud: Evidence from a cross‐linguistic study

open access: yesDevelopmental Science, Volume 23, Issue 6, November 2020., 2020
Developing readers of four alphabetic orthographies (i.e. English, French, German, Italian) read aloud morphologically structured and non‐morphologically structured nonwords. English is the least consistent language, in terms of its spelling‐to‐sound relationships, and the most morphologically sparse, compared to the other three. English readers showed
