Testing the size‐grain hypothesis in a generalist predator: The case of an ant species in the Brazilian savannah

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
In our recent study, we examined whether ants in the Brazilian Cerrado follow the “grain‐size hypothesis,” which proposes that larger ants should have proportionally longer legs to move efficiently across different environments. We used Ectatomma permagnum, a common predatory ant in the Cerrado, measuring hundreds of individuals collected from various ...

Microclimate drives demographic compensation in a narrow endemic tropical species

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Demographic compensation occurs when reductions in some vital rates are offset by increases in others, allowing populations to maintain similar performance across varying environments. This mechanism may help explain species' ecological distributions and range limits, yet its role at microenvironmental scales remains poorly understood.

The Complex Relation of Branched‐Chain Amino Acids and Inflammation in the Obesity and Diabetes Context

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In a scenario with increasing cases of obesity and diabetes worldwide, branched‐chain amino acids (BCAA) metabolism has become an important factor in the understanding of these pathologies. More recently, its chronic high plasma levels have been postulated, alongside glucose, inflammatory factors, and other molecules, as an important ...
