Proximity to bait and social interactions influence individual wild pig (Sus scrofa) visitation at bait sites

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Individual wild pig bait site visitation and time to initial detection is primarily influenced by space use (i.e., proximity to bait) and whether wild pigs from other social groups visited before. Specifically, females are less likely to visit a bait site if an adult male visits a site before them.

Biochar‐Induced Shifts in Fungal Community Structure and Their Association With Soil Physical Properties in Degraded Soil From the Brazilian Semiarid

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil degradation compromises ecosystem functioning. Biochar, a carbon‐rich amendment, has gained attention as a promising strategy to enhance soil structure and restore microbial balance. This study investigated the effects of two biochars, cashew bagasse biochar (CBB) and a co‐pyrolyzed biochar produced from sewage sludge and cashew pruning ...

Vegetation Structure and Diversity Under Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration: A Comparison of Silvo‐Arable and Silvo‐Pastoral Systems in Kenya

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR) is a low‐cost, adaptable agroforestry practice that enhances land restoration by promoting systematic integration of naturally regenerating trees within farming systems through tree selection and management.

Deep Learning Unlocks Behavioral Prediction and Neurobehavioral Decoding

Med Research, EarlyView.
This review evaluates deep learning frameworks that surmount conventional limitations through high‐dimensional nonlinear modeling, spatiotemporal dependency capture, and multimodal information integration. Focusing on biological behavior forecasting and neural mechanism decoding, we delineate cutting‐edge applications, including real‐time action ...

Shark scavenging behavior in the presence of competition

Current Zoology, 2010
The distribution of organisms within a community can often be determined by the degree of plasticity or degree of specialization of resource acquisition.

Foraging in a non-foraging task: Fitness maximization explains human risk preference dynamics under changing environment.

PLoS Computational Biology
Changes in risk preference have been reported when making a series of independent risky choices or non-foraging economic decisions. Behavioral economics has put forward various explanations for specific changes in risk preference in non-foraging tasks ...

Generalist‐pollinated Arabis alpina exhibits floral scent variation at multiple scales

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Plants that depend on animals for reproduction often use complex floral traits to attract pollinators. Floral scent is recognized as part of the pollinator attraction module and can be shaped by plant‐pollinator interactions. In recent decades, research has started to reveal the dynamic properties of floral scent, identifying patterns of spatial and ...

G Protein‐Coupled Receptor 17 (Gpr17) Enhances Leptin and Insulin Sensitivity in Lean and Obese Mouse Models

Obesity, EarlyView.
This study identifies G protein‐coupled receptor 17 (Gpr17) as a novel regulator of leptin and insulin sensitivity. Using complementary knockout models, we demonstrate that Gpr17 deletion enhances energy expenditure, restores leptin responsiveness, and improves insulin sensitivity, revealing Gpr17 as a potential therapeutic GPCR target for obesity and ...

Stratified sampling enhances the understanding of bat–fruit networks in the southern Atlantic Forest

Oikos, EarlyView.
Few studies have sought to understand the vertical patterns of bat–fruit systems, and therefore, it is not possible to evaluate whether interpretations based on data collected from a single stratum adequately represent the interaction patterns of this system. In this context, we evaluated the dissimilarity in the assemblage of frugivorous bats, plants,
