Patterns of turnover and floristic similarity show a non-random distribution of naturalized flora in Chile, South America [PDF]

Revista chilena de historia natural, 2008
La distribucion geografica actual de especies exoticas puede ser informativa de los procesos involucrados en las invasiones biologicas facilitadas por humanos. Debido a que los factores ambientales y antropicos pueden afectar la distribucion geografica de plantas exoticas, hipotetizamos que las plantas naturalizadas deberian exhibir una distribucion no

BarnebyLives: An R package to create herbarium specimen labels and clean spreadsheets

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Accessioning herbarium specimens is labor intensive, yet remains vital for research in ecology, evolution, and conservation. As institutional support for herbaria declines, efficient tools are needed to streamline this process. The R package BarnebyLives was developed to assist collectors by supplementing collection notes, verifying ...

The gift remembered: The Human Anatomy and Physiology Society (HAPS) Anatomical Donor Stewardship's ethical and practical handbook for anatomy donor tributes

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Providing students with a way to honor human body donors during or after an anatomy course has been shown to help provide a sense of closure and comfort to students and, when present, donor families. Gestures of gratitude for donors can also emphasize humanistic values of respect, empathy, and professionalism.

Dissecting the dissection laboratory: Elements for designing a human anatomy laboratory

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The human anatomy dissection laboratory is a critical component of anatomical and medical education. Development, maintenance, and stocking of these laboratory spaces have unique demands, with all of the challenges in running a laboratory with Biosafety Laboratory Level 2 (BSL‐2) classification, housing a large volume of tissues saturated with

Understanding Plant Parasitism: Hydnora Africana and European Scientific Practice in the Early Nineteenth Century**

Berichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, EarlyView.
This article will analyze the uncertainties around collecting and classifying Hydnora africana in the first half of the nineteenth century. Emerging from the distinctive dryland ecologies of South Africa, Hydnora was interpreted as strange and cryptic by Europeans primarily because it is a root parasite—a complex floral trait that was little understood.
