Out of the stable: Social disruption and concurrent shifts in the feral mare (Equus caballus) fecal microbiota. [PDF]
We investigated the effects of increased social instability, as determined by the number of group changes made by females, on the microbiota in free‐living, feral horses (Equus caballus) on Shackleford Banks, a barrier island off the North Carolina coast.

Assessing the diet and seed dispersal ability of non-native sambar deer (Rusa unicolor) in native ecosystems of south-eastern Australia. [PDF]
Understanding the influence of non‐native herbivores on ecosystems through dietary foraging and seed dispersal requires multiple methodologies. In south‐eastern Australia, sambar deer (Rusa unicolor) are rapidly expanding in range and placing native ecosystems at risk through browsing and as vectors for seed dispersal.

Will the climate of plant origins influence the chemical profiles of cuticular waxes on leaves of Leymus chinensis in a common garden experiment? [PDF]
We analyzed the variations of cuticular waxes among 59 populations of Leymus chinensis in a common garden experiment. Great intraspecific trait variations (ITV) were observed for total wax coverage, wax compositions and the relative abundance of homologues within each wax class. Our results suggested that wax deposition patterns of L.

Sodium Chloride-Induced leaf senescence in Hydrocotyle bonariensis Lam. and Foeniculum vulgare L.
Leaf senescence induced by sodium chloride was studied in Hydrocotyle bonariensis Lam. and Foeniculum vulgare L. Both species belong to Umbelliferae family, however only H. bonariensis grows spontaneously in sandy soils of coastal regions (saline soils).
