What drives animal responses to high severity fire? The role of functional traits

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fire regimes are changing worldwide, with increases in the frequency, extent, and severity of fires posing growing risks to biodiversity. Fire severity – the degree of habitat alteration following fire – strongly influences both immediate survival and long‐term recovery of fauna.

Evidence for adaptive explanations of semelparity in animals

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Semelparity, the reproductive strategy of reproducing once, is widespread but uncommon in animals. Classes of models to explain the evolution of semelparity are based either on age structure and mortality schedules – demographic models in which high post‐reproductive mortality risk favours high reproductive effort and semelparity results from ...

Food‐solicitation displays in nestling birds: still begging for answers

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nestling begging is a key model for understanding animal communication and parent–offspring conflict. Dynamic begging displays are often interpreted as costly, honest signals of need, with honesty maintained by viability costs, as proposed in Godfray's influential signalling model.

The Effect of the MTHFR C677T Genotype Polymorphism on the Efficacy of Folic Acid Treatment for Hyperhomocysteinemia and Cardiovascular Endothelial Function

open access: yesChronic Diseases and Translational Medicine, EarlyView.
Flowchart of patient enrollment. ABSTRACT Background Cardiovascular disease remains a major public health burden. This study aimed to investigate the effect of the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T genotype on folic acid treatment response and cardiovascular endothelial function in patients with hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy).
