A link between increased temperature and avian body condition in a logged tropical forest

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The combined effects of anthropogenic disturbances, such as logging and climate change, remain poorly understood; yet, they are the main threats to tropical biodiversity. Most tropical African countries lack long‐term climate data, so climate impacts on biodiversity cannot be assessed.

An experimental approach to assess the combined effects of multiple stressors on a large vertebrate species

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The design of experiments to investigate the combined effects of multiple stressors requires exposing target organisms to multiple combinations of stressor doses. Concurrent manipulation of stressors is often infeasible with wildlife, but long‐lasting health effects allow individual health to be used as an integrator of prior stressor exposure.

Molecular Phylogeny and Strain Genotyping of the Bacterial Endosymbiont Wolbachia Associated With Tuta absoluta Populations

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
This study was designed to understand the association between reproductive endosymbiotic bacteria and wild and laboratory‐reared Tuta absoluta populations. The majority of T. absoluta populations showed Wolbachia presence at varying levels of infection, whereas Arsenophonus, Cardinium, and Spiroplasma were not detected. Wolbachia‐positive T.

Impact of Female Mating Status on Male Courtship Behaviour in a Sexually Cannibalistic New Zealand Fishing Spider

open access: yesEthology, EarlyView.
Scoring of male courtship behaviour in Dolomedes minor revealed no effect of female mating status on courtship duration or sequence structure, but males delayed the initiation of courtship when encountering previously mated females. ABSTRACT The evolution of male courtship rituals has traditionally been attributed to female mate selection, but may also

Genetic Diversity and Impacts of Stocking on Cyprinus carpio Populations in Türkiye: Insights From Mitochondrial, Nuclear, and Microsatellite Markers

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding genetic diversity and population structure is essential for the sustainable management of widely stocked freshwater species such as common carp (Cyprinus carpio). In this study, we conducted a comprehensive genetic assessment of C.

Stayability in the Era of Early‐Challenged Females: Genetic Parameters and Correlations With Economically Relevant Traits

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to estimate the variance components, heritabilities and genetic correlations between four new different categories of stayability (STAY48‐2, STAY48‐3, STAY54‐2, STAY54‐3) with weight at 240 days of age (W240), weight at 450 days of age (W450), scrotal circumference at 365 days of age (SC365), age at puberty in males (APM ...
