Biogeographic affiliation and centers of richness as predictors of elevational range‐size patterns for Malesian flora

Ecography, Volume 2024, Issue 5, May 2024.
Our goal was to interrogate the idea that “mountain passes are higher in the tropics” by investigating ecological and biogeographic drivers of elevational range‐sizes patterns among equatorial flora. We used herbarium records for 60 species‐rich plant families, representing 18 535 species total, to estimate distributions over a 4500 m elevational ...

Reassessment of the enigmatic “Prestosuchus” loricatus (Archosauria: Pseudosuchia) from the Middle‐Late Triassic of southern Brazil

The Anatomical Record, Volume 307, Issue 4, Page 974-1000, April 2024.
Abstract Our knowledge of the diversity and evolution of South American Triassic pseudosuchians has greatly improved in the past 15 years, due to new discoveries, but also to the revision of several historically important specimens. One of the earliest descriptions of pseudosuchians from the Triassic of Brazil stems from the classic work of Huene from ...

Diversification of West Nile virus in a subtropical region

Virology Journal, 2009
Background West Nile virus (WNV) has spread across North, Central, and South America since its introduction in 1999. At the start of this spread, Florida was considered a potentially important area with regards to transmission due to its geographic ...

Molecular identification of heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) gene in the Indian edible oyster Crassostrea madrasensis (Preston) and Indian brown mussel Perna indica Kuriakose & Nair, 1976 [PDF]

, 2012
Bivalves are constantly exposed to different kinds of stressors as they live in a habitat with frequent changes in environmental parameters. The xenobiotic pollutants also contribute to the stressful routine of bivalves.

Layer‐specific imprints of traits within a plant–herbivore–predator network – complementary insights from complementary methods

Ecography, Volume 2024, Issue 4, April 2024.
Who interacts with whom is a key question in community and network ecology. The concept that these interactions may be driven by a match between the traits of consumer and resource species is known as trait‐matching. If trait‐matching would allow for general predictions of interaction structure based on sufficiently few and easily‐measurable traits ...

Genome-wide identification and expression profiling of tomato Hsp20 gene family in response to biotic and abiotic stresses

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
The Hsp20 genes are involved in the response of plants to environment stresses including heat shock and also play a vital role in plant growth and development.

Topology reconstruction using time series data in telecommunication networks

Networks, Volume 83, Issue 2, Page 408-427, March 2024.
Abstract We consider Hybrid fiber‐coaxial (HFC) networks in which data is transmitted from a root node to a set of customers using a series of splitters and coaxial cable lines that make up a tree. The physical locations of the components in a HFC network are always known but frequently the cabling is not.

Piecing the barcoding puzzle of Palearctic water frogs (Pelophylax) sheds light on amphibian biogeography and global invasions

Global Change Biology, Volume 30, Issue 3, March 2024.
By revisiting three decades of molecular data, we retraced the evolution and mapped the diversity of Pelophylax water frogs, a famous group of Eurasian amphibians. The results highlight the Paratethys Paleo‐sea as a major driver of diversification, implement a new timetree validation approach, emphasize the rare ability of lineages to hybridize despite
