Are current ecological restoration practices capturing natural levels of genetic diversity? A New Zealand case study using AFLP and ISSR data from mahoe (Melicytus ramiflorus) [PDF]

, 2015
Sourcing plant species of local provenance (eco-sourcing) has become standard practice in plant community restoration projects. Along with established ecological restoration practices, knowledge of genetic variation in existing and restored forest ...

Harnessing Large Language Models to Advance Microbiome Research: From Sequence Analysis to Clinical Applications

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Large language models are transforming microbiome research by enabling advanced sequence profiling, functional prediction, and association mining across complex datasets. They automate microbial classification and disease‐state recognition, improving cross‐study integration and clinical diagnostics.

Impact of Biomimetic Pinna Shape Variation on Clutter Echoes: A Machine Learning Approach

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Bats with dynamic ear structures navigate dense, echo‐rich environments, yet the echoes they receive are highly random. This study shows that machine learning can reliably detect structural signatures in these seemingly chaotic biosonar signals. The results open new directions for biologically inspired sensing, where time‐varying receiver shapes ...

Intraspecific variation in stomatal architecture, gas exchange, and drought response of a dominant prairie grass sourced from broad climatic gradients

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Understanding how plant populations adapt to water limitation through stomatal traits is key to predicting drought responses. The dominant C4 grass Andropogon gerardi, distributed across sharp climate gradients in North America, offers an excellent focal species to study stomatal architecture (size and density).

Benefits From Tree Growing in the Degraded Uplands: Empirical Realities from Tabango, Leyte, the Philippines [PDF]

, 2005
Understanding the poor upland farmers' rationality in managing their agroforestry systems necessarily includes analyses of the complex socio-economic and ecological niche in which their local knowledge is embedded.

The sleeping giant needs coffee: Overlooked areas for integrating plant ecophysiology and evolutionary biology

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Interpretations of evolutionary outcomes are limited without incorporation of physiological ecology, and ecophysiological interpretations would benefit from incorporating evolutionary perspectives. Although there has been a rise of studies in the last 20 years between these fields, evolutionary studies that incorporate plant physiology have ...

A community‐partnered process for construct & measure development: The 3Rs: Reading, Racial equity, & Relationships

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper describes a 3‐year community–partnered research initiative focused on advancing early reading, racial equity, and relationships—collectively known as the 3Rs Initiative. The project brought together researchers and community members committed to ensuring that all adults in the county embody a shared “3Rs mindset” to better support ...

Predicting animal abundance through local ecological knowledge

Given the ongoing environmental degradation from local to global scales, it is fundamental to develop more efficient means of gathering data on species and ecosystems. Local ecological knowledge, in which local communities can consistently provide information on the status of animal species over time, has been shown to be effective.
