NGATHA carpel development genes evolved in the common ancestor of seed plants. [PDF]

Plant J
SUMMARY The evolution of the carpel, the defining feature of angiosperms, remains a fundamental question in plant biology. Understanding how this organ originated is crucial because it underpins the reproductive success and diversity of flowering plants.

Indigenous peoples and local community reports of climate change impacts on biodiversity. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Climate change impacts on biodiversity have been primarily studied through ecological research methods, largely ignoring other knowledge systems. Indigenous and local knowledge systems include rich observations of changes in biodiversity that can inform climate change adaptation planning and environmental stewardship.

Assessment of the diet of the critically endangered northern hairy-nosed wombat (Lasiorhinus krefftii) using DNA metabarcoding. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2023
Diet of the critically endangered northern hairy‐nosed wombat was assessed. They are generalist herbivores consuming mostly grasses followed by legumes. The northern hairy‐nosed wombat diet is significantly different across seasons and sites.

Phylogenetic reconciliation provides new insights into the evolutionary diversification of the glutamine synthetase gene family in seed plants. [PDF]

FEBS J
Phylogenetic analyses of glutamine synthetase (GS) in seed plants revealed that all three major evolutionary lineages (GS2, GS1a, and GS1b) must have been present in the common ancestor, with GS2 being the first lineage to diverge. Unlike GS1b, GS1a and GS2 are usually single‐copy genes, even though they underwent duplications that resulted in ...

Vicariance or dispersal- trans-Tasman faunal relationships among Thysanoptcra (Insecta), with a second species of Lomatothrips from Podocarpus [PDF]

, 2006
Lomatothrips pinopsidis sp.n. (Insecta: Thysanoptera) is described as the second species of the genus. This species is widespread in Australia on Podocarpus and Callitris male cones, but the only other species in the genus is from New Zealand breeding in

Contrasting seasonal patterns in diet and dung‐associated invertebrates of feral cattle and horses in a rewilding area

Molecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 8, Page 2071-2091, April 2023., 2023
Abstract Trophic rewilding is increasingly applied in restoration efforts, with the aim of reintroducing the ecological functions provided by large‐bodied mammals and thereby promote self‐regulating, biodiverse ecosystems. However, empirical evidence for the effects of megafauna introductions on the abundance and richness of other organisms such as ...

Using eDNA metabarcoding to understand the effect of fire on the diet of small mammals in a woodland ecosystem

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022
Information regarding diet changes over time after disturbance is lacking for many animals living in habitats prone to disturbances such as fires. DNA metabarcoding is a versatile molecular method that allows simultaneous characterization of many biotas using taxonomically informative barcode regions.
