Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 4, Page 351-360, May 2026.ABSTRACT Animals with seasonal reproductive cycles, as the Roe deer (Capreolus capreolus), have developed mechanisms to synchronize reproduction with the environmental cycle in order to optimize reproductive success through melatonin. Angiogenesis and oxidative stress are key processes in spermatogenesis, contributing to testicular remodeling and ...

Abundance–Occupancy Relationships are Informed by Species Temporal Occupancy
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.Understanding how species spatial and temporal distributions are related to abundance is fundamental to ecology. Indeed, the relationship between species spatial occupancy and abundance has been investigated across taxa and environments. Less studied, is how species temporal occupancy may inform the spatial abundance–occupancy relationship.

Post-mating parental behavior trajectories differ across four species of deer mice.
PLoS ONE, 2022 Among species, parental behaviors vary in their magnitude, onset relative to reproduction, and sexual dimorphism. In deer mice (genus Peromyscus), while most species are promiscuous with low paternal care, monogamy and biparental care have evolved at ...
