A systematic review and meta‐analysis of variation in nest predation of ground‐nesting birds

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Predation and communities of predators of ground‐nesting bird nests and fledglings have been studied across multiple groups of ground‐nesting birds, such as waders, waterbirds, gamebirds and passerines, and habitats, but differences and similarities between groups are less studied.

Not all crickets are equal: selective shrike predation highlights the conservation value of diverse arthropod communities to grassland birds

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Understanding dietary preferences and prey selection is pivotal for interpreting the ecology and conservation needs of threatened species. We investigated the diet composition and prey selection of the Red‐backed Shrike Lanius collurio in a montane grassland of the central Italian Apennines, with special regard to sex‐related differences and the ...

Theorizing Waste as a Technique of Power in Capitalistic Stakeholder Relations

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Waste is an important socio‐ecological challenge of contemporary capitalism, contributing to climate change and environmental degradation. Despite its pervasiveness and its impacts on diverse stakeholders, it yet remains largely underexplored in management and organization studies.

Genetic, phenotypic, and ecological differentiation indicate a new cryptic and threatened species in the orchid genus Epidendrum from Alcatrazes Island, southeastern Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
Epidendrum insularis occurs on the remote Alcatrazes Island in the southeastern Brazilian coast. The description of this new cryptic species was only possible by the joint use of molecular markers, reproductive experiments, flower morphometry, functional traits, and community analysis.

Molecular phylogenetic analysis sheds light on the diversity and evolutionary history of the Neotropical and African Triplophyllum (Tectariaceae)

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
We used a molecular approach to resolve the evolutionary lineages of Neotropical Triplophyllum, uncovering that current species circumscriptions are hindered by high morphological homoplasy in indument characters. Our results support the recognition of three new species and provide a necessary neotypification for T.

Symphonic Gift: Wagner's Siegfried Idyll and the Hermeneutics of Sonata Form

open access: yesMusic Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article reimagines the place of programmatic interpretation within the New Formenlehre through the case study of Richard Wagner's Siegfried Idyll. To theorise the interaction between form and programme, I reconcile ‘separation’ and ‘conflation’ views – as represented by Julian Horton (2020) and Lawrence Kramer (2004a) – by deploying ...

Nodulation does not alter root hydraulic conductance in pea

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Root hydraulic conductance (Kr) normalised by root dry mass (including nodules) under hydrated and drought conditions in Pisum sativum wild‐type (Frisson, Nod+), non‐nodulator (sym19, Nod−), and supernodulator (Psrdn1, Nod++).

Dual mechanisms give rise to biphasic stomatal opening in onion

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Anisotropic guard cell wall stiffness enhances onion stomatal pore opening by increasing guard cell arc length. Summary Stomata are controllable micropores on the leaf surface that regulate gas exchange and water loss. Pore aperture adjustment is a mechanical process whereby changes in guard cell turgor drive changes in cell shape, resulting in ...

Evolutionary Conserved and Divergent Responses to Copper Zinc Superoxide Dismutase Inhibition in Plants

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT After an initial evolution in a reducing environment, life got successively challenged by reactive oxygen species (ROS), especially during the great oxidation event (GOE) that followed the development of photosynthesis. Therefore, ROS are deeply intertwined into the physiological, morphological and transcriptional responses of most present‐day
