Ecological interactions shape the evolution of flower color in communities across a temperate biodiversity hotspot

open access: yesEvolution Letters, 2021
Processes driving the divergence of floral traits may be integral to the extraordinary richness of flowering plants and the assembly of diverse plant communities.

Reproductive interference between alien species in Veronica

open access: yesJournal of Plant Research, 2023
Abstract Reproductive interference can lead to the exclusive distribution of species. Although interference from alien to native species has been reported, reports on reproductive interference between alien species are scarce. However, because alien species are becoming more abundant, evaluations of reproductive interference between aliens and ...

Alternative reproductive tactics in male freshwater fish influence the accuracy of species recognition

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Sexual conflict can result in coercive mating. Because males bear low costs of heterospecific mating, coercive males may engage in misdirected mating attempts toward heterospecific females. In contrast, sexual selection through consensual mate choice can

Positive density dependence acting on mortality can help maintain species-rich communities

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Conspecific negative density dependence is ubiquitous and has long been recognized as an important factor favoring the coexistence of competing species at local scale.

Endocrine Effect of Some Mycotoxins on Humans: A Clinical Review of the Ways to Mitigate the Action of Mycotoxins

open access: yesToxins, 2023
Fungi such as Aspergillus spp. and Fusarium spp., which are commonly found in the environment, pose a serious global health problem. This study aims to present the results of epidemiological studies, including clinical cases, on the relationship between ...

Reproductive interference between honeybee species in artificial sympatry [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, 2014
AbstractReproductive isolation between closely related species is often incomplete. The Western honeybee, Apis mellifera, and the Eastern hive bee, Apis cerana, have been allopatric for millions of years, but are nonetheless similar in morphology and behaviour.

Social environment and reproductive interference affect reproductive success in the frog Rana latastei. [PDF]

open access: yesBehavioral Ecology, 2003
Variation in the social environment produces selection on morphological and behavioral traits. It is less clear how the social environment generates variation in demography through behavioral mechanisms. Theory suggests that one aspect of social environment, relative abundance of heterospecifics, influences the intensity of reproductive interference ...

Reproductive justice: Non‐interference or non‐domination?

open access: yesDeveloping World Bioethics, 2021
AbstractThe reproductive justice movement started by black women’s rights activists made its way into the academic literature as an intersectional approach to women’s reproductive autonomy. While there are many scholars who now employ the term ‘reproductive justice’ in their research, few have taken up the task of explaining what ‘justice’ entails in ...
