Human land‐use changes the diets of sympatric native and invasive mammal species
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023 We simultaneously study the diet of nine native and two invasive mammal species inhabiting three different anthropogenic land‐uses across six bioclimatic regions using environmental DNA and stable isotope analysis. We show that land‐use influences the trophic relationships in invaded communities.

Past human‐induced ecological legacies as a driver of modern Amazonian resilience
People and Nature, Volume 5, Issue 5, Page 1415-1429, October 2023., 2023 Abstract People have modified landscapes throughout the Holocene (the last c. 11,700 years) by modifying soils, burning forests, cultivating and domesticating plants, and directly and indirectly enriched and depleted plant abundances. These activities also took place in Amazonia, which is the largest contiguous piece of rainforest in the world, and for

Global effects of forest modification on herpetofauna communities
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023 Abstract As the area covered by human‐modified environments grows, it is increasingly important to understand the responses of communities to the novel habitats created, especially for sensitive and threatened taxa. We aimed to improve understanding of the major evolutionary and ecological processes that shape the assemblage of amphibian and reptile ...

Biotropica, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 738-752, May 2021., 2021 We identified 83 published paired studies that reported data on microbial biomass, abundance, composition, and enzyme activity under representative land‐use changes in the tropics. We found that microbial biomass, abundance, and functions were affected by land‐use change.

Conservación de suelos mediante la modificación de la frecuencia de labranza: Un caso en Costa Rica
Ciencias Ambientales, 2020 [Introducción]: En Costa Rica, los productores hortícolas labran el suelo cada seis meses, usando sistemas convencionales que pulverizan la capa arable y provocan degradación. [Objetivo]: Se evaluó el efecto de diferentes tipos de labranza con el fin de

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.Findings here show that successional forest predicts greater kissing bug infestation risk in palm trees, whereas native forest predicts lower kissing bug occurrence but greater infection with T. cruzi. These insights can guide land use planning towards vegetation management practices that help minimize T. cruzi transmission risks for rural communities.

Phylogenomics‐based click‐beetle classification tackles multiple origins of phenotypic modifications
Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.Using a concatenated dataset consisting of new genomic data from 73 species across 40 click‐beetle tribes and an earlier published, smaller dataset, we conducted the first 4200‐ortholog study targeting the phylogeny of Elateridae with the highest resolution to date.
