Phenotypic Plasticity Across Gradients of Predation and Competition in Larval Amphibians
Many taxa encounter a wide range of conditions for any particular environmental variable and they experience variation in multiple environmental variables simultaneously, which may have interactive effects if different environmental types induce opposing phenotypes.

By analyzing 277 anuran mitochondrial genomes, this study reconstructs a robust phylogeny for frogs and toads, tracing their origins to the Triassic and major radiations to the Cretaceous‐Neogene. The research identifies 58 distinct gene arrangement patterns, providing a novel evolutionary framework.

Detection and succession properties of forested vernal pools with eDNA metabarcoding
We examined the capacity of environmental DNA metabarcoding for studying biodiversity of forested vernal pools, using multiple assays to investigate different eukaryotic communities over space and time. Our results suggest that metabarcoding can serve as a complementary tool for ‘scaling up’ vernal pool biodiversity monitoring, illuminating ecological ...
