Conservation Implications for the Iberian Narrow Endemic <i>Androsace cantabrica</i> (Primulaceae) Using Population Genomics With Target Capture Sequence Data. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study uses Angiosperms353 target capture sequencing to resolve the taxonomic status and conservation needs of Androsace cantabrica, a rare alpine plant endemic to northern Spain. Phylogenomic analyses confirm its distinctiveness from related species, and population genomic data reveal shallow genetic structure and moderate diversity, supporting ...

A Comparative Analysis of DNA Metabarcoding and Morphological Identification in Diatoms Reveals Similar Patterns of Environmental Response. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study compares the use of two universal molecular markers (COI and 18S rRNA) with morphological identification to evaluate patterns in diatom communities from high mountain mires. The results revealed a strong correspondence in beta diversity and environmental response across beta and alpha diversity. However, these molecular markers were found to

Linking Functional Traits To Trophic Roles In Scavenger Assemblages. [PDF]
Ecol EvolABSTRACT Scavenging is a widespread feeding strategy involving a diversity of taxa from different trophic levels, from apex predators to obligate scavengers. Scavenger species play a crucial role in ecosystem functioning by removing carcasses, recycling nutrients and preventing disease spread.

Characterizing grazing and terrain use patterns of Hispano-Breton mares in the Spanish Pyrenees using GPS devices and remote sensing data. [PDF]
Aust Vet JGeotechnologies, such as Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and remote sensing, are essential for documenting topographic features and analyzing land use. Among them, the GPS (Global Position System)‐based sensors have proven highly effective in monitoring livestock, providing high‐resolution data on movement patterns.

Parallel adaptation to lower altitudes is associated with enhanced plasticity in Heliosperma pusillum (Caryophyllaceae). [PDF]
Plant J, 2023 Significance Statement In early stages of adaptation to hotter and drier habitats, an alpine plant in the carnation family shows increased expression plasticity at ecologically relevant genes. This paper investigates two contrasting hypotheses regarding the role of phenotypic plasticity during evolution of alpine/montane plant ecotypes.

Unveiling the Evolutionary History of European Vipers and Their Venoms From a Multi-Omic Approach. [PDF]
Mol EcolABSTRACT Snake genomes attract significant attention from multiple disciplines, including medicine, drug bioprospection, and evolutionary biology. However, genomic research within the Viperidae family has mostly focused on the subfamily Crotalinae, while the true vipers (Viperinae) have largely been overlooked.

MOPREDAS_century database and precipitation trends in mainland Spain, 1916–2020
International Journal of Climatology, Volume 43, Issue 8, Page 3828-3840, 30 June 2023., 2023 Monthly trends were analysed using a moving windows approach with increasing, decreasing and fixed‐length intervals. The main results showed that the global trend (i.e., annual precipitation) between 1916 and 2020 mostly is not significant. Results obtained from monthly trend analysis show wet and dry periods.

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 6, August 2026.ABSTRACT Traditional classification of flagellates (i.e., flagellated protists) relies on morphological traits or a single molecular marker, which suffer from subjectivity and limited data sources. This study proposes a multimodal deep learning model, Residual Multi‐Feature Attention‐50 (ResMFA50), that integrates photomicrographs and small subunit ...
