Exon-Primed Intron-Crossing (EPIC) Markers for Evolutionary Studies of Ficus and Other Taxa in the Fig Family (Moraceae)

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, 2013
Premise of the study: The genus Ficus (fig trees) comprises ca. 750 species of trees, vines, and stranglers found in tropical forests throughout the world. Fig trees are keystone species in many tropical forests, and their relationship with host-specific

Managing Robot Perception: How Families Present Their Faces to a Toy Robot

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
Playing with a robot's face detection capabilities constitutes a praxeological approach to learning about new technology. We explore how family members discover suitable formations for a Cozmo robot to scan a single face, drawing on video recordings from Swedish homes. Taking an ethnomethodology and conversation‐analysis perspective, we demonstrate how

Image_8_Diversity and metabolic potentials of microbial communities associated with pollinator and cheater fig wasps in fig-fig wasp mutualism system.JPEG

open access: yes, 2022
Microbial symbionts can influence a myriad of insect behavioral and physiological traits. However, how microbial communities may shape or be shaped by insect interactions with plants and neighboring species remains underexplored.

Impact of Environmental Microparticles on Insect Olfaction

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Terrestrial insects underpin key ecosystem services, including pollination, herbivory regulation, decomposition, nutrient cycling, and disease control. These functions depend on chemical communication that guides insects to food, mates, hosts, shelters, and oviposition sites while helping them avoid threats.

Large parameter uncertainty persists in soil food web models integrating stoichiometry, respiration and assimilation

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Soil food web models are essential for linking animal diversity to carbon and nutrient cycling. However, it is unclear how soil animals regulate excess carbon when nutrient availability limits their growth and how to best represent animal respiration in these models. To

Functional variation in butterfly egg pore traits: The potential role of climate

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Immobile eggs of terrestrial animals are exposed to variable environmental conditions. Insect egg pores, critical for gas exchange (aeropyles) and fertilisation (micropyles), are ecologically important yet understudied.

Contextually conspicuous species are more likely to be venomous: Habitat‐dependent aposematic colouration found throughout snakes

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Conspicuous colouration signals venomous nature throughout snakes. Abstract Many animals use conspicuous colours to advertise their unprofitability to potential predators, a phenomenon known as aposematism. For example, conspicuous banded patterns in snakes are often highlighted as aposematic signalling of their venomous nature.
