Global artificial light masks biologically important light cycles of animals

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
We document the importance of low‐light conditions in 136 animal species and then translate the new world atlas of skyglow, which reports artificial night sky brightness, into estimates of anthropogenic illuminance (that is, artificial light reaching Earth's surface).

Sustainable production of ectomycorrhizal fungi in the Mediterranean region to support the European Green Deal

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 14-26, January 2023., 2023
The planet faces a climate crisis with severe health, economic and environmental consequences. Political actions such as the European Green Deal aim to mitigate climate change by shifting production and consumption patterns, and the production of mycorrhizal sporocarps—the fruiting body of fungi—is no exception. The production of mycorrhizal sporocarps

Effects of recreational fishing on three fish species from the Posidonia oceanica meadows off Minorca (Balearic archipelago, western Mediterranean)

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2007
Experimental fishing and visual censuses were conducted at nine Posidonia oceanica sites off Minorca exposed to different levels of fishing intensity to assess the effects of recreational fishing on the species that dominate the catch.

Analyzing recreational fishing effort -- Gender differences and the impact of Covid-19 [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Recreational fishing is an important economic driver and provides multiple social benefits. To predict fishing activity, identifying variables related to variation, such as gender or Covid-19, is helpful. We conducted a Canada-wide email survey of users of an online fishing platform and analyzed responses focusing on gender, the impact of Covid-19, and

Recommendations for built marine infrastructure that supports natural habitats

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
The extent of built marine infrastructure—from energy infrastructure and ports to artificial reefs and aquaculture—is increasing globally. The rise in built structure coverage is concurrent with losses and degradation of many natural habitats. Although historically associated with net negative impacts on natural systems, built infrastructure—with ...

Pedigree reconstruction for triploid apple cultivars using single nucleotide polymorphism array data

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 98-111, January 2023., 2023
Many economically, culturally, and historically important apple cultivars are triploids, which have three copies of each chromosome instead of the more typical two copies in diploids. Despite their prevalence and importance, there have been conflicting reports regarding their origin and their ability to beget diploids.
