Molecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 22, Page 5986-5999, November 2023., 2023 Abstract After decades of intense persecution, the Iberian wolf subspecies faced a severe bottleneck in the 1970s that considerably reduced its range and population size, nearly leading to its extinction in central and southern Iberian Peninsula. Such population decline could have impacted the genetic diversity of Iberian wolves through different ...

Reputational recovery under political instability: Public debt in Portugal, 1641–83
The Economic History Review, Volume 76, Issue 3, Page 871-891, August 2023., 2023 Abstract This article examines the reputation recovery of Portugal's public debt during the war of liberation against the former Habsburg ruler. Using novel datasets on long‐ and short‐term debt and nominal interest rates, this study provides evidence that the sovereign borrower used debt credibility to build a pact of regime in a revolutionary context

Freshwater Biology, Volume 68, Issue 8, Page 1428-1441, August 2023., 2023 Abstract Riparian plant communities are key to ecosystem functioning and important providers of ecosystem services on which wildlife and people depend. Ecosystem functioning and stability depend on functional diversity and redundancy. Therefore, understanding which and how different drivers shape community assembly processes and functional patterns is ...

Bryophyte assembly rules across scales
Journal of Ecology, Volume 111, Issue 7, Page 1531-1544, July 2023., 2023 Results highlight the role of environmental filtering in bryophyte community assembly at fine spatial scales, emphasizing the importance of measuring environmental conditions at the same spatial scales where biotic interactions take place. In line with the stress‐dominance hypothesis, the relative importance of environmental filtering increased with ...

Reticulate evolution underlies synergistic trait formation in human communities
Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 32, Issue 1, Page 26-38, February 2023., 2023 Abstract This paper investigates how reticulate evolution contributes to a better understanding of human sociocultural evolution in general, and community formation in particular. Reticulate evolution is evolution as it occurs by means of symbiosis, symbiogenesis, lateral gene transfer, infective heredity, and hybridization.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 10, Issue 18, Page 9788-9807, September 2020., 2020 The manuscript presents the transcriptome of maritime pine trees that show contrasted response to drought. Comparison of transcriptomic profiles at the organ level allowed to identify organ‐specific and genotype‐specific transcripts as well as differentially expressed genes between organs, genotypes, and treatments.

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 12, Issue 4, Page 679-691, April 2019., 2019 Abstract Human‐mediated introductions of species may have profound impacts on native ecosystems. One potential impact with largely unforeseen consequences is the potential admixture of introduced with autochthonous species through hybridization. Throughout the world, bumblebees have been deliberately introduced for crop pollination with known negative ...

Improving Whole Biodiversity Monitoring and Discovery With Environmental DNA Metagenomics
Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 6, August 2025.ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) metagenomics sequences all DNA molecules present in environmental samples and has the potential of identifying virtually any organism from which they are derived. However, due to unacceptable levels of false positives and negatives, this approach is underexplored as a tool for biodiversity monitoring across the tree of

Forest Age Rivals Climate to Explain Reproductive Allocation Patterns in Forest Ecosystems Globally
Ecology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 8, August 2025.Forest allocation of net primary productivity (NPP) to reproduction is poorly quantified globally, despite its critical role in forest regeneration and a well‐supported trade‐off with allocation to growth. We present the first global synthesis of forest reproductive allocation (RA) using a comprehensive dataset of 824 observations across 393 sites ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.In this work, we described three new endemic species of Namib Day geckos (Rhoptropus) from the northern Benguela Province, highlighting the importance of this region as an important center of endemism. ABSTRACT Angola remains one of the least explored countries in Africa, and several groups of reptiles still require taxonomic and phylogenetic revision.
