Phytohormonal and Transcriptomic Mechanisms of Multigenerational Stress Memory in Wheat Under Weed Competition

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multigenerational stress exposure induces stress memory in plants, influencing resource allocation, defence mechanisms, and productivity. Weed competition imposes both resource‐based (abiotic) and allelopathic (biotic) stress, engaging overlapping hormonal pathways.

Effects of outbreeding depression on meristics and bilateral asymmetry in hybrids of spatially separated populations of pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Thesis (M.S.) University of Alaska Fairbanks, 2005Different populations of a species distributed over diverse conditions adapt to their local environments to improve their ability to survive or reproduce. Intraspecific hybridization can alter the locally

A review of ecological risks of coral reef interventions

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coral reefs, essential for biodiversity, livelihoods, and global economies, face severe threats from climate change and other stressors. Curbing greenhouse emissions is crucial, but the urgent situation also calls for immediate intervention strategies.

Interactive effects of inbreeding and endocrine disruption on reproduction in a model laboratory fish

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2013
Inbreeding depression is expected to be more severe in stressful environments. However, the extent to which inbreeding affects the vulnerability of populations to environmental stressors, such as chemical exposure, remains unresolved.

Inferences About Inbreeding Depression Based on Changes of the Inbreeding Coefficient [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 1990
In a mixed-mating population, the fitness of selfed individuals, relative to outcrossed individuals, can be estimated from observed changes of the inbreeding coefficient F. In general, three measurements of F, or two measurements of F and one of the selfing rate, spanning two generations are needed.

Adaptive Capacity of Freshwater Organisms in North America: Current Understanding and Future Applications

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2026.
This paper tailors adaptive capacity understanding for North American freshwater fishes, mussels, and crayfishes by integrating trait‐based approaches to provide practical guidance for improving management and conservation decisions under global change.

Resource management as a conservation tool to impact genetic diversity through mating patterns in wild populations

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 3, April 2026.
Abstract The distribution of resources influences interactions in wild populations by affecting movement, space‐use patterns, and, as a result, mating systems. Limited resources may reduce encounters between potential breeders, reducing the number and variety of individuals contributing to the population's gene pool.

Population Genomics Informs Conservation Strategies for Critically Endangered Kokia Species in Hawaiʻi

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Once a common feature of the xeric‐mesic habitats of the Hawaiian Islands, trees from the genus Kokia have undergone severe human‐driven population reductions, with island‐specific pressures resulting in different outcomes for each single island endemic species.

Inbreeding depression in Holstein cattle in Brazil

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Zootecnia
The objective of this study was to evaluate inbreeding depression in Holstein cows in Brazil, considering their 305-day milk production (MP), age of first calving (AFC), and calving interval (CI).

Challenges of Introgression in Conservation: Genetic Diversity of the Endangered Wild Camel (Camelus ferus) in Mongolia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Using non‐invasive nuclear and mitochondrial analysis, this study reveals evidence of introgression in critically endangered Wild Camels (Camelus ferus) from the domestic Bactrian camel (Camelus bactrianus), alongside reduced genetic diversity and higher inbreeding in both in situ and ex situ populations in Mongolia.
