Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We performed 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolite profiling for three sympatric lizard species—Teratoscincus roborowskii, Phrynocephalus axillaris, and Eremias roborowskii—and compared their goblet cell and enzyme activities in the digestive tract. Our study suggests that the dietary niche may promote divergence or convergence of microbiota across host ...

Underwater Whispers: Unveiling the Chemical Language of Plankton
The vast ocean depths may seem silent, but a hidden symphony unfolds beneath the surface. Here, plankton engage in a fascinating conversation, not through sound or sight, but through a complex language of chemical signals. These silent cues orchestrate a

Maximizing eDNA detections of rare marine organisms: A case study of a delphinid species
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Environmental DNA (eDNA) is an emerging tool for surveying marine organisms. Advances in molecular assay designs and bioinformatic methods provide new opportunities for detecting rare species; however, overcoming methodological challenges of rare species detection remains an important obstacle for the widespread deployment of eDNA methods for ...

DeepZoo: A cost‐effective and modular sampler for ecological studies in the deep ocean
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Understanding the structure and dynamics of deep‐ocean communities requires effective sampling of pelagic organisms in near‐bottom waters. These dispersive organisms contribute to biodiversity, connectivity and ecosystem recovery. Yet, current sampling methods remain constrained by size, cost, and depth, leaving key questions unanswered in ...

A century of inertia in quantitative ecology education
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Ecology has undergone a profound methodological transformation through the rapid growth in new technologies, data volume, statistical innovation and analytical sophistication. These developments create unprecedented opportunities for novel ecological insights, but have also magnified longstanding concerns about quantitative training, which ...
