Dorsal Crypsis and Chemical Defense Jointly Shape Brain Size in Toads

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We found that total brain size and dorsal crypsis under both ultraviolet‐sensitive (UVS) and violet‐sensitive (VS) tetrachromatic bird visual models were negatively associated across eight species of toads. Our findings suggest that when species reduce predation risk by evolving increased dorsal crypsis, they may exhibit decreased brain size due to ...

Climate Change and Dispersal Limitation Reshape Future Habitat Accessibility for Lady Amherst's Pheasant (Chrysolophus amherstiae) in China

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We combined occurrence records across China with multisource environmental variables using ensemble species distribution modeling, optimal‐parameter geographical detector analysis, and dispersal simulations to estimate future habitat accessibility for Lady Amherst's Pheasant (Chrysolophus amherstiae). ABSTRACT Montane forest birds are highly vulnerable

Differentially Expressed Genes Identification of Kohlrabi Seedlings (Brassica oleracea var. caulorapa L.) under Polyethylene Glycol Osmotic Stress and AP2/ERF Transcription Factor Family Analysis

Plants
Osmotic stress is a condition in which plants do not get enough water due to changes in environmental factors. Plant response to osmotic stress is a complex process involving the interaction of different stress-sensitive mechanisms.

Leveraging obligate mutualism to resolve the rare species modeling paradox

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Species distribution models (SDMs) have emerged as vital tools for devising biodiversity conservation planning, yet modeling rare, data‐deficient species remains a significant challenge. To address this “rare species modelling paradox,” we propose a novel approach which posits that under the condition of significant niche overlap between the obligate ...
