Global Change Biology, 2019 Leaf phenology is one of the most reliable bioindicators of ongoing global warming in temperate and boreal zones because it is highly sensitive to temperature variation.

Fishes, 2022 Continuous photoperiod is extensively used in fish farming, to regulate the reproductive cycle, despite evidence suggesting that artificial photoperiods can act as a stressor and impair the immune system.

Multiple-line inference of selection on quantitative traits [PDF]
Genetics 201 (1), 305-322 (2015), 2014 Trait differences between species may be attributable to natural selection. However, quantifying the strength of evidence for selection acting on a particular trait is a difficult task. Here we develop a population-genetic test for selection acting on a quantitative trait which is based on multiple-line crosses.

Photoperiod controls vegetation phenology across Africa
Communications Biology, 2019 Vegetation phenology is driven by environmental factors such as photoperiod, precipitation, temperature, insolation, and nutrient availability.

Evolution Letters, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 460-473, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Plants have evolved diverse reproductive allocation strategies and seed traits to aid in dispersal, persistence in the seed bank, and establishment. In particular, seed size, dormancy, and early seedling vigor are thought to be key functional traits with important recruitment and fitness consequences across abiotic stress gradients.

Uncovering functional brain signature via random matrix theory [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology 15(5): e1006934 (2019), 2017 The brain is organized in a modular way, serving multiple functionalities. This multiplicity requires that both positive (e.g. excitatory, phase-coherent) and negative (e.g. inhibitory, phase-opposing) interactions take place across brain modules. Unfortunately, most methods to detect modules from time series either neglect or convert to positive any ...

Evolution Letters, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 394-411, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Temperature has a profound effect on the growth and development of ectothermic animals. However, the extent to which ecologically driven selection pressures can adjust thermal plastic responses in growth schedules is not well understood. Comparing temperature‐induced plastic responses between sexes provides a promising but underexploited ...

BMC Plant Biology, 2023 Background Though many abiotic factors are constantly changing, the photoperiod is a predictable factor that enables plants to time many physiological responses.
