Bridging micro and macroevolution: insights from chromosomal dynamics in plants. [PDF]

Front Plant Sci
Understanding the relationship between macro- and microevolutionary processes and their delimitation remains a challenge. This review focuses on the role of chromosomal rearrangements in plant population differentiation and lineage diversification ...

The latitudinal variation in amphibian speciation rates revisited. [PDF]

Commun Biol
Speciation can increase regional species richness, however, our knowledge of how and why speciation rates vary across space is still incomplete. Using comprehensive information on species distributions and their phylogenetic relationships, we describe ...

Development of an online analyser to meet challenging new discharge limits for mercury in flue gas desulphurisation wastewater

Water Quality Research Journal, 2023
Anthropogenic emissions of mercury to the environment are of great concern due to its toxicity. The burning of coal contributes highly to Hg emissions and, as such, much lower effluent discharge limits for Hg in flue gas desulphurisation (FGD) wastewater

Direct Calibration Method for LA-HR-ICP-MS Apatite U-Pb Dating

Yankuang ceshi, 2022
BACKGROUND Apatite is a common U-bearing accessory mineral with a U-Pb closure temperature of ~500℃, making U-Pb dating of apatite a potentially valuable thermochronometer.

Impact of soil-type, soil-pH, and soil-metal (loids) on grain-As and Cd accumulation in Malawian rice grown in three regions of Malawi

Environmental Advances, 2022
Impact of soil type, soil-metal(loids) and soil-pH of rice paddies on grain-arsenic (As) and cadmium (Cd) accumulation in Malawian rice was investigated to explore the extent to which Malawi's geographical location, soil types, soil-metal(loids) and soil-

Research Progress on Elemental Speciation Analysis by Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry Hyphenated Techniques

Yankuang ceshi, 2021
BACKGROUND As a highly sensitive analytical technique, ICP-MS has been widely used in the analysis of trace inorganic elements. Combined with chromatographic separation technology, it provides a powerful detection tool for elemental speciation analysis ...

Metal Flux from Dissolution of Iron Oxide Grain Coatings in Sandstones

Geofluids, 2021
Iron oxide grain coatings in red sandstones contain trace metals that are released upon dissolution of the coatings. Analyses by ICP-MS following acid leaching of the grain coatings show that the dissolved metals can constitute an ore-forming fluid, as ...

Terrestrial and Subterranean Mammals as Reservoirs of Zoonotic Diseases in the Central Part of European Russia

Diversity, 2022
Russia has a number of historical foci of zoonotic anthropogenic diseases. In Central Russia, the Republic of Mordovia is one of such areas, a region being known to have foci of haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and tularemia.

Allopatric speciation is more prevalent than parapatric ecological divergence in a recent high-Andean diversification (Linochilus: Asteraceae) [PDF]

PeerJ, 2023
Elucidating how species accumulate in diversity hotspots is an ongoing debate in evolutionary biology. The páramo, in the Northern Andes, has remarkably high indices of plant diversity, endemicity, and diversification rates.
