Thermomechanical factor in genesis of the transversefaults on the North-Western Caucasus
The transverse deep faults are inherent for the North-Western Caucasus. Their genesis can be explained by thermo-mechanical processes on the late geosyncline-orogenic stage of the geological evolution of the district. These processes include: the cooling

Biogeography and host associations of Russula subsection Xerampelinae based on large-scale analysis of UNITE sequence data. [PDF]
Summary Estimating fungal geographic ranges and niche potential is limited by the ephemeral nature of fruiting bodies. While environmental DNA offers broader insights, species‐level identification remains difficult due to uncertain sequence clustering thresholds, low interspecific variation in barcoding regions, and limited taxonomic resolution.
