Effect of locomotor preference on the evolution of mitochondrial genes in Bovidae
Locomotor preferences and habitat types may drive animal evolution. In this study, we speculated that locomotor preference and habitat type may have diverse influences on Bovidae mitochondrial genes. We used selection pressure and statistical analysis to

Abstract Premise Desert plant assemblages in southern California provide an opportunity to link patterns of community structure with climate‐driven vulnerability in a rapidly changing environment. California sustains an exceptionally diverse flora of approximately 4300 plant species, with 31% identified as endemic.

Success of coastal sage scrub restoration is influenced by local adaptations of shrub species
Abstract Premise Restoring plant communities is increasingly challenging with climate change. While practitioners have traditionally used local seed sources, many are recommending assisted migration, possibly from more extreme environments such as inland rather than coastal environments, for restoration.

Habitat Imprinting and Natal Habitat Preference Induction
In this article, what is currently understood about the role that early experience has in the formation of habitat preferences is reviewed. The umbrella concept, Natal Habitat Preference Induction (NHPI), which includes a number of effects that natal ...

ABSTRACT Saponification is a key step for recovering the unsaponifiable fraction (USF) of lipids, which contains bioactive sterols, tocopherols, and carotenoids. This study optimized direct saponification conditions (50–300 g L−1 KOH; 60°C–100°C) to recover sterol‐rich USFs from the microalga Isochrysis galbana and the brown seaweed Ascophyllum nodosum,
