Transposable elements: Functional aspects and applications as drivers of crop innovation
Abstract Transposable elements (TEs), which were once relegated to the status of genomic parasites, are today accepted as important agents of plant genome evolution and adaptation. This review integrates evidence pointing to their dual function as drivers of genetic diversity and instability, with a focus on their contribution to phenotypic innovation,

Phenotypic and Ecological Correlates of Population Decline in the World's Anurans
In this study, we assess the ecological and environmental factors associated with population decline in the world's anurans, taking into account their evolutionary relationships. A large majority of evaluated species were in decline. Range size and temperature annual range were negatively correlated with decline, whereas latitude was positively ...

We evaluated whether climatic gradients or spatial structure better explain body size variation in the South American rattlesnake (Crotalus durissus) across its wide geographic range. After explicitly accounting for spatial autocorrelation, climatic variables were not significant predictors of body size in either sex, whereas sex‐specific spatial ...

Mammal defaunation leads to biotic homogenization of plant communities in tropical rainforests
Abstract Biotic homogenization is the process in which species communities become increasingly similar across different regions over time. This phenomenon has substantial ecological, evolutionary, and economic implications, primarily driven by human activities such as habitat destruction, invasive species introduction, and climate change.
