Do species conservation assessments capture genetic diversity?

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2014
The best known system for classifying threat status of species, the IUCN Red List, currently lacks explicit considerations of genetic diversity, and consequently may not account for potential adaptation of species to future environmental change.

Red list and checklist of the molluscs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Von den in Berlin nachgewiesenen 158 Molluskenarten und Unterarten wurden 38,6 % als bestandsgefährdet eingestuft. Der Anteil gefährdeter Taxa ist bei den Muscheln mit 43,3 % am höchsten, gefolgt von 39,8 % bei den Landschnecken und 33,3 % bei den ...

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

Redshifts and Luminosities for 112 Gamma Ray Bursts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Two different luminosity indicators have recently been proposed for Gamma Ray Bursts that use gamma-ray observations alone. They relate the burst luminosity (L) with the time lag between peaks in hard and soft energies, and the spikiness or variability ...

Hematopoietic (stem) cells—The elixir of life?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The aging of HSCs (hematopoietic stem cells) and the blood system leads to the decline of other organs. Rejuvenating aged HSCs improves the function of the blood system, slowing the aging of the heart, kidney, brain, and liver, and the occurrence of age‐related diseases.

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

Patterns of uncertainty in life-history and extinction risk for Arctic vertebrates

open access: yesArctic Science, 2018
Conserving Arctic wildlife will be challenging given the ongoing environmental changes in the region. In addition, there is a lack of fundamental biological information for many Arctic species, including a dearth of knowledge surrounding conservation ...

Ambiguity in guideline definitions introduces assessor bias and influences consistency in IUCN Red List status assessments

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2015
The IUCN Red List is the most widely used tool to measure extinction risk and report biodiversity trends. Accurate and standardised conservation status assessments for the IUCN Red List are limited by a lack of adequate information; and need consistent ...
