Interdependent Preferences for Financing and Providing Public Goods—The Case of National Defense

open access: yesKyklos, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Governments often choose deficit financing over budget cuts or tax increases to fund public goods, driven by the political unpopularity of the latter options. This study investigates the potential trade‐off between maintaining prudent public finances and securing voter support by analyzing the relationship between preferences for the provision

Mating system variation and gene expression in the male reproductive tract of Peromyscus mice

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Genes involved in reproduction often evolve rapidly at the sequence level due to postcopulatory sexual selection (PCSS) driven by male–male competition and male–female sexual conflict, but the impact of PCSS on gene expression has been under‐explored.

Expression patterns of melanin‐related genes are linked to crypsis and conspicuousness in a pumpkin toadlet

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Colour signals play pivotal roles in different communication systems, and the evolution of these characters has been associated with behavioural ecology, integumentary production processes and perceptual mechanisms of the species involved. Here, we present the first insight into the molecular and histological basis of skin colour polymorphism ...

Protection of Photosynthesis by UVR8 and Cryptochromes in Arabidopsis Under Blue and UV Radiation

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Photosynthesis in plants is negatively affected by high light intensity and UV radiation. The photoreceptors UV RESISTANCE LOCUS 8 (UVR8) and CRYPTOCHROMES (CRYs) mediate perception and acclimation of plants to UV‐B/UV‐A2 (290–340 nm) and UV‐A1/blue light (350–500 nm), respectively.

A Holistic Investigation of Arabidopsis Proteomes Altered in Chloroplast Biogenesis and Retrograde Signalling Identifies PsbO as a Key Regulator of Chloroplast Quality Control

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Communication between the diverse compartments of plant cells relies on an intricate network of molecular interactions that orchestrate organellar development and adaptation to environmental conditions. Plastid‐to‐nucleus signalling pathways play a key role in relaying information from developing, mature, and damaged or disintegrating ...

Low genetic differentiation across restored and natural populations shortly after a large‐scale, post‐fire seeding in the Great Basin

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Genetic diversity is essential for species to adapt to environmental changes. In restoration efforts, such as those after large wildfires in the sagebrush steppe of the Great Basin, commercially produced native seeds are used to revegetate the burned areas.

Are planting site conditions more important than soil amendments when direct seeding in the semiarid Mallee in regional Victoria, Australia?

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Direct seeding is a potentially valuable method for restoration in arid areas due to its low cost and labor input but suffers from the drawback of reduced survival rates, which may lead to planting failure. As such, the addition of soil amendments may be one way to increase planting success rates.
