Pulmonary development in Squamata: Insights from embryonic studies using micro‐CT

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Pulmonary development in tetrapods is a complex process, especially within squamates, where single‐chambered, transitional, and multi‐chambered lungs can be found in adult animals. While the embryological development of the respiratory system of lizards and snakes was studied in a number of species between the 1830s and 1940s, the ...

Studying interspecific population synchrony: current status and future perspectives

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Interspecific population synchrony, or co‐fluctuations in the population dynamics and demographic parameters of different species, is an important ecological phenomenon with major implications for the stability of communities and ecosystems. It is also central in the context of biodiversity loss, as interspecific synchrony can influence how ecological ...

Naturalization of ornamental plants in the United States depends on cultivation and historical land cover context

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Cultivation by humans is the primary mode of introduction for naturalized plants and an important driver of naturalization, a critical step in the invasion process. Historical records of cultivated plants can represent introduced species pools and propagule pressure, allowing for tests of how species' traits and environmental context affect ...

A systematic review evaluating the performance of eDNA methods relative to conventional methods for biodiversity monitoring

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The rapid adoption of environmental DNA (eDNA) methods has drastically changed biodiversity monitoring efforts. It is often claimed that eDNA methods are more sensitive and efficient than conventional biodiversity monitoring methods, but it is often unclear what metrics support this claim.

Climate and microbial community composition drive shifts in ecosystem function along three parallel elevational gradients

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Mountains are home to steep elevational gradients in environmental factors, biodiversity and ecosystem functionality. Though these gradients are tightly connected, little is known about the relative contribution of environmental and biotic factors in driving elevational changes in ecosystem functionality.
