Improved COI taxonomic assignment workflow enhances detection of invertebrates in environmental DNA
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is an increasingly popular and powerful tool in ecology, offering a non‐invasive method to assess biodiversity and monitor ecosystem health across diverse environments. While the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene is one of the most widely used markers for studying eukaryotic ...

A Biophysical Approach to the Design of Networks of Communication Systems
Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Inspired by the growth dynamics of the protist Physarum polycephalum, we employ a formalism that describes adaptive, incompressible Hagen‐Poiseuille flows on channel networks to identify graphs connecting different nodes within Euclidean space. These graphs are either suboptimal or optimal relative to their length.

Bottom–up and top–down drivers influence urbanization effects on insect herbivory in oaks
Oikos, EarlyView.Urban forests provide essential ecosystem services, including pest control, biodiversity conservation, and human health benefits. Herbivory is a widespread biotic interaction that shapes ecosystem functions, such as primary productivity and soil fertility, which underpin these services.
