Testing the size‐grain hypothesis in a generalist predator: The case of an ant species in the Brazilian savannah

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
In our recent study, we examined whether ants in the Brazilian Cerrado follow the “grain‐size hypothesis,” which proposes that larger ants should have proportionally longer legs to move efficiently across different environments. We used Ectatomma permagnum, a common predatory ant in the Cerrado, measuring hundreds of individuals collected from various ...

Combined TRPC3 and TRPC6 blockade by selective small-molecule or genetic deletion inhibits pathological cardiac hypertrophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Chronic neurohormonal and mechanical stresses are central fea-tures of heart disease. Increasing evidence supports a role forthe transient receptor potential canonical channels TRPC3 andTRPC6 in this pathophysiology.

Canalized to heat, plastic to cold: adaptive coordination of leaf and seed strategies in populations spanning an elevational gradient

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary In tropical mountains, surviving temperature extremes demands finely tuned strategies. We investigated how populations of the bromeliad Pitcairnia flammea across a 2200 m elevational gradient balance genetic canalization and plasticity, and whether thermal strategies are coordinated between seeds and leaves.

Marécages, une pollution par essence? Conditions d'une écopoétique des marais et autres zones humides au XXe siècle

open access: yesOrbis Litterarum, EarlyView.
Abstract To expose the pollution of marshes and swamps, whether by hydrocarbons or other contaminants, the French or Francophone author of the twentieth century must first confront a literary tradition that equates stagnant water with a volatile poison and, more broadly, wetlands with toxic environments. In his article “Wetland Gloom and Wetland Glory,”

Alterations in plant architecture and physiology allow maize to sustain yield after early defoliation

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Maize (Zea mays L.) tolerance to early defoliation is shaped by genotype‐specific physiological and morphological responses. Defoliation disrupts the source–sink balance, altering carbon allocation and plant development. Understanding these responses is crucial for optimizing breeding programs and agronomic management.
