Exercise, exerkines, and muscle–brain crosstalk in Parkinson's disease
Neuroprotection, EarlyView.Abstract Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder with motor and non‐motor symptoms, driven by dopaminergic loss and α‐synuclein accumulation. Beyond neurodegeneration, growing evidence highlights skeletal muscle health as a key determinant of prognosis, with sarcopenia and frailty contributing to greater disability, fall ...

Incorporating Human Beliefs and Behaviors into Wildlife Ecology [PDF]
, 2019 Like much of the global biosphere, wildlife species have experienced rapid declines during the Anthropocene. Wildlife ecologists have responded to these crises by developing a range of technologies, techniques, and large datasets, which together have ...

Fruit‐quality tradeoffs generate asymmetry in plant reliance on mutualistic frugivores
Oikos, EarlyView.Seed dispersal is a fundamental ecological process influencing the evolution of plant life‐history strategies. In fleshy‐fruited plants dispersed by mutualistic frugivores, variation in fruit traits among closely related species may shape the temporal and spatial dynamics of dispersal events critical to population success.

Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2014 The work had as objective to do a morphometric characterization of the fruits and seeds, to identify the best treatments to overcome dormancy, identify the best temperature for germination and also evaluate adequate conditions for storing the seeds of ...

The effects of single versus successive warm summers on an intertidal community
Oikos, EarlyView.To accurately predict how organisms and ecological communities will respond to future conditions caused by climate change, we must consider the temporal dynamics of environmental stressors, including the effects of repeated exposures to stress. We performed a two‐year passive thermal manipulation in coastal British Columbia, Canada to determine how ...

Age ratio in groups of a social ungulate affects epizoochorous dispersal and diaspore exchanges
Oikos, EarlyView.Animal‐mediated seed dispersal is a key process in plant population dynamics, species distribution and ecosystem functioning. As long‐distance dispersal agents, ungulates help to maintain native plant populations facing abiotic changes in their habitat and habitat fragmentation or habitat loss.

Relationships between socioeconomic variables and cover tree of humid tropic cattle farms Ecuador
Revista Cubana de Ciencias Forestales, 2016 The tree cover in livestock farms in Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas was characterized and related to socioeconomic variables. Information about characteristics of the farm, livestock production system, the cover tree and pastures was collected through ...

Oikos, EarlyView.As habitats change, the effectiveness of animal‐mediated seed dispersal increasingly depends on animal responses to altered structure and resources. With habitat loss and degradation accelerating across the tropics, understanding how dispersers' foraging behavior and movement influence seed removal and deposition is critical to promoting forest ...
