Amelioration of Nephrotoxicity in Mice Induced by Antituberculosis Drugs Using Ensete ventricosum (Welw.) Cheesman Corm Extract. [PDF]

Int J Nephrol, 2022
Background. Antituberculosis drugs are antimicrobial agents important for treating a communicable disease called tuberculosis. Despite their importance, antituberculosis drugs such as isoniazid and rifampicin have severe adverse effects like nephrotoxicity with acute renal failures.

Three-dimensional stratification pattern in an old-growth lowland forest: How does height in canopy and season influence temperate bat activity? [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2021
We investigated three‐dimensional and seasonal habitat use by insectivorous bats in a temperate lowland old‐growth forest. We identified guild‐ and species‐specific differences in canopy height use and species‐dependent seasonal microhabitat shifts that can be explained by ecomorphological adaptations.

Analysis of the Impact of Agriculture and Logging on Forest Habitat Structure in the Ankasa and Bia Conservation Area of Ghana. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Ghana's Ankasa and Bia Conservation Areas are facing rapid forest loss due to the expansion of agricultural activities, leading to widespread land conversion. As a result, forest patches on the outskirts of these protected areas have become fragmented, isolated and disconnected.

Positive association between emerald ash borer residence time and accumulation of invasive plants

Ecosphere, Volume 14, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Invasive forest pests can affect the composition and physical structure of forest canopies that may facilitate invasion by non‐native plants. However, it remains unclear whether this process is generalizable across invasive plant species at broad spatial scales, and how other landscape characteristics may simultaneously facilitate non‐native ...

Trait‐mediated responses of caterpillar communities to spongy moth outbreaks and subsequent tebufenozide treatments

Ecological Applications, Volume 33, Issue 6, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Outbreaks of the spongy moth Lymantria dispar can have devastating impacts on forest resources and ecosystems. Lepidoptera‐specific insecticides, such as Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki (BTK) and tebufenozide, are often deployed to prevent heavy defoliation of the forest canopy.

Not all temperate deciduous trees are leafless in winter: The curious case of marcescence

Ecosphere, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Temperate deciduous forests by definition include a large proportion of woody species that shed their leaves each autumn and are completely leafless during winter months. Leaf senescence in deciduous trees is an active, complex process typically involving the physiological formation of an abscission layer causing the petiole to mechanically ...

Optimizing bat bioacoustic surveys in human‐modified Neotropical landscapes

Ecological Applications, Volume 31, Issue 6, September 2021., 2021
Abstract During the last decades, the use of bioacoustics as a non‐invasive and cost‐effective sampling method has greatly increased worldwide. For bats, acoustic surveys have long been known to complement traditional mist‐netting, however, appropriate protocol guidelines are still lacking for tropical regions.

Human augmentation of historical red pine fire regimes in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness

Ecosphere, Volume 12, Issue 7, July 2021., 2021
Abstract The Border Lakes Region of Minnesota and Ontario has long been viewed as a fire‐dependent ecosystem. High‐severity fire in the region's near‐boreal forests has been a focus of ecological research and public fascination. However, the surface fire history within this transnational wilderness landscape has received more limited attention. We used

Foraging habitat drives the distribution of an endangered bat in an urbanizing boreal landscape

Ecosphere, Volume 12, Issue 3, March 2021., 2021
Abstract The boreal forest is the largest intact forest in the world, and a refuge for species experiencing range retractions as a consequence of climate and landscape change. Yet, large tracts of the boreal forest are threatened by the cumulative impacts of climate change, natural resource extraction, agriculture, and urbanization, perhaps warranting ...
