Abstract Background Relatively little is known about voice and speech abnormalities and their changes after deep brain stimulation (DBS) in patients with dystonia. Objective The aim was to determine the incidence of speech abnormalities, including laryngeal dystonia, among patients with dystonia receiving DBS and to characterize their response to this ...

Many habitat‐specialist plant species have been endangered by fragmentation or destruction of their habitats. Minuartia smejkalii is a serpentinophyte endemic to the Czech Republic. It is highly threatened by recent habitat destruction and fragmentation, calling for effective conservation measures.

Both density‐ and frequency‐dependent effects determine plant growth in a dune heath ecosystem
We tested the hypothesis that both density‐ and frequency‐dependent interactions play important roles in determining plant growth in a dune heath ecosystem at several levels of available nitrogen. Plant growth was measured using the pin‐point method in a five‐block experiment with four nitrogen levels.

Inequalities in intraspecific plant–lemur interactions drive seed dispersal patterns
Biotic interactions occur between individuals and accumulate to shape species‐level interaction structure across a community. Skewed interaction structures, where a few individuals are highly connected and most have few interactions, are increasingly identified at the individual‐level.

Fruit‐quality tradeoffs generate asymmetry in plant reliance on mutualistic frugivores
Seed dispersal is a fundamental ecological process influencing the evolution of plant life‐history strategies. In fleshy‐fruited plants dispersed by mutualistic frugivores, variation in fruit traits among closely related species may shape the temporal and spatial dynamics of dispersal events critical to population success.
