Dynamics of postnatal bone development and epiphyseal synostosis in the caprine autopod

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bones develop to structurally balance strength and mobility. Bone developmental dynamics are influenced by whether an animal is ambulatory at birth. Precocial species, which are ambulatory at birth, develop advanced skeletal maturity in utero and experience postnatal development under mechanical loading.

Progress of in situ conservation and use of crop wild relatives for food security in a changing climate: a case of the underutilised Vigna Savi

Frontiers in Sustainability
Crop wild relatives (CWRs) - wild plant taxa genetically closely related to domesticated plants - are considered an alternative pathway to solving global food insecurity in a changing climate.

Freshwater fish functional diversity shows diverse responses to human activities, but consistently declines in the tropics

Ecography, EarlyView.
Freshwater environments are intertwined with human activities and the consequence has been environmental degradation and biodiversity loss. Fish provide key ecological and economic benefits, and fish abundance and diversity can be affected by human activities resulting in functional diversity (FD) changes that might scale up to ecosystem impacts ...

Genome-wide analysis and stress-responsive expression profiling of the LEA (late embryogenesis abundant) gene family in wild peanut

Oil Crop Science
Late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins generally accumulate in seeds during the later stages of maturation. Here we studied the LEA genes in two wild peanut species (Arachis duranensis and Arachis ipaensis) in an effort to create a genetic resource ...

Plant diversity estimates of Mediterranean islands differ among biodiversity databases

Ecography, EarlyView.
Large‐scale biodiversity databases encompass three main types of data for plants, namely single species point occurrences, co‐occurrences in vegetation plots, and checklists for specific areas. Evidence shows that such data types exhibit specific biases, reporting different species assemblages at local scales.

Warming summers limit reindeer grazing, weakening herbivory pressure in the mountain tundra

Ecography, EarlyView.
Climate change is predicted to alter species interactions by exposing ecosystems to increasingly frequent and intense warm spells. In the mountain tundra, grazing by large herbivores, particularly reindeer, can limit shrub expansion and preserve Arctic plant diversity.

Shared Waters, Shared Responsibility: Solving Collective Action Problems in an Upstream‐Downstream Setting

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The governance of shared water systems requires collaboration across diverse stakeholders. In this study we advance the theoretical understanding of asymmetric collective action problems (CAPs) by reassessing the role of third‐party interventions and emphasizing the strategic importance of policy brokers and institutional venues.

A real‐life snapshot: Evaluating exposures to low energy availability in male athletes from various sports

Physiological Reports
Problematic low energy availability (LEA) is the underlying cause of relative energy deficiency in sport (REDs). Male specific etiology, as well as the duration and degree of LEA exposures resulting in REDs remain to be adequately described.
