Unveiling the Taxonomic Diversity and Unprecedented Biosynthetic Treasure of the Phylum Myxococcota

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Natural products remain vital sources of therapeutics, and the phylum Myxococcota constitutes an especially rich reservoir for them. Based on decades of microbiological efforts, we present 154 new Myxococcota genomes and revise taxonomy quadrupling the number of families and genera.

Groundwater Rise Sustains the World's Largest Alpine Water System Under Global Warming

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Shallow groundwater depth (SGWD) across the non‐permafrost plains of the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau decreased at averagely 0.02 m year−1, adding 31.44 Gt of freshwater storage from 2000 to 2020 and sustaining ∼53 500 km2 of alpine ecosystems. A vadose‐zone capacity of 426.6 Gt reveals these aquifers as promising reservoirs, highlighting groundwater's ...

Modelling individual variability in habitat selection and movement using integrated step‐selection analysis

Methods in Ecology and Evolution
Integrated step‐selection analysis (ISSA) is frequently used to study habitat selection using animal movement data. Methods for incorporating random effects in ISSA have been developed, making it possible to quantify variability among animals in their ...

Phenotypic divergence across populations does not affect habitat selection in an Amazonian poison frog

Global Ecology and Conservation
Understanding intraspecific variation in habitat selection by polytypic species, where distinct variants occur in separate populations, can improve our knowledge of population-specific selective pressures and inform conservation measures.

A Permutation-based Combination of Sign Tests for Assessing Habitat Selection [PDF]

The analysis of habitat use in radio-tagged animals is approached by comparing the portions of use vs the portions of availability observed for each habitat type.

Habitat selection of Dendrocygna javanica in heterogeneous lakes of Malaysia

, 2017
Monitoring the habitat selection of lesser whistling Duck (Dendrocygna javanica) is highly crucial for species conservation and management. In this study, habitat selection of D.

Symbiont‐Induced HSP83 Establishes Two‐Tiered Control of Antifungal Immunity in an Invasive Beetle–Fungus Complex

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In an invasive beetle–fungus complex, the mutualist Leptographium procerum induces host HSP83 and modulates Toll‐dependent antifungal immunity. HSP83 mediates two‐tiered control by associating with selected fungal recognition receptors and restraining Dorsal‐driven antimicrobial peptide transcription.

Spatial ecology and habitat selection of Eastern Pinesnakes: Case study on the importance of scale in conservation biology

Global Ecology and Conservation
Species are in decline world-wide, driven by multiple factors including habitat fragmentation. Understanding the habitat selection processes of species in these fragmented landscapes has become a focus of ecological studies and is a major component of ...

Habitat Selection and Mating Success in a Mustelid

International Journal of Zoology, 2011
Habitat selection remains a poorly understood ecological process, but relating mating behaviour to pattern of habitat selection constitutes a fundamental issue both in evolutionary ecology and in biological conservation.
