Genomic variation in a widespread Neotropical bird (Xenops minutus) reveals divergence, population expansion, and gene flow [PDF]
(2015) Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution 83: 305-316, 2014 Elucidating the demographic and phylogeographic histories of species provides insight into the processes responsible for generating biological diversity, and genomic datasets are now permitting the estimation of histories and demographic parameters with unprecedented accuracy.

Lévy like patterns in the small-scale movements of marsupials in an unfamiliar and risky environment [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 9, 2737 (2019), 2019 We investigate the movement patterns of three different Neotropical marsupials in an unfamiliar and risky environment. Animals are released in a matrix from which they try to reach a patch of forest. Their movements, performed on a small spacial scale, are best approximated by L\'evy flights.

Insecticidal Gene Silencing by RNAi in the Neotropical Region
Neotropical Entomology, 2019 Insecticidal gene silencing by RNA interference (RNAi) involves a post-transcriptional mechanism with great potential for insect control. Here, we aim to summarize the progress on RNAi research toward control of insect pests in the Neotropical region and
