Genetic differentiation and adaptive evolution of buff‐tailed bumblebees in Asia

Insect Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates the genetic differentiation and local adaptation of the buff‐tailed bumblebee (Bombus terrestris) across its European and Asian populations. Using whole‐genome resequencing, we identified distinct genetic differences between populations, with Asian B. terrestris representing a unique genetic resource.

Monetary policy and gender discrimination in the credit market

Journal of Government and Economics, 2023
The studies on monetary policy highlight that a contractionary policy reduces a firm's access to external funds. However, it is unknown whether it affects men and women equally. In this scenario, the aim of this paper is twofold.

The Multiplicity of M-Dwarfs in Young Moving Groups

, 2017
We image 104 newly identified low-mass (mostly M-dwarf) pre-main sequence members of nearby young moving groups with Magellan Adaptive Optics (MagAO) and identify 27 binaries with instantaneous projected separation as small as 40 mas.

Harnessing community science and open research‐based data to track distributions of invasive species in Japan

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Information gaps about invasive alien species (IAS) distributions hinder local governments in Japan, where many prefectures still lack official lists. This study shows that open research‐based data (ORD, GBIF.org) from museums and herbaria and community science data (CSD, Biome and iNaturalist) from volunteers can substantially reduce these gaps.
