Unlocking fruit dimensions: Quantification of functional traits driving plant–frugivore interactions

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Fleshy fruits attract animals to ingest fruit, swallow the seeds, and release them in the landscape, thus facilitating seed dispersal and plant regeneration. Attraction of animal dispersers is achieved via attractants such as color or scent, and rewards like sugars, lipids, and micronutrients.

An open‐label, single‐arm, dose‐escalating concentration–QT study to investigate the cardiac effects and safety of paroxetine in healthy adults

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Paroxetine is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), approved for treatment of major depressive disorder and anxiety disorders. Some SSRIs are known to prolong the QT interval; however, clinical evidence to establish a lack of association between paroxetine and corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation is limited. Therefore, this

The impacts of biological invasions

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological
