eLife, 2020 Zinc and copper are involved in neuronal differentiation and synaptic plasticity but the molecular mechanisms behind these processes are still elusive due in part to the difficulty of imaging trace metals together with proteins at the synaptic level.

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2015 What are species? How do they arise? These questions are not easy to answer and have been particularly controversial in microbiology. Yet, for those microbiologists studying environmental questions or dealing with clinical issues, the ability to name and recognize species, widely considered the fundamental units of ecology, can be practically useful ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Cadmium (Cd) speciation ratio in arable land determines the Cd exposure risk and Cd uptake in crops. However, the driving mechanisms of Cd speciation change on the vertical scale of paddy fields remain poorly understood.

Invasive species and biodiversity crises: testing the link in the late devonian. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 During the Late Devonian Biodiversity Crisis, the primary driver of biodiversity decline was the dramatic reduction in speciation rates, not elevated extinction rates; however, the causes of speciation decline have been previously unstudied.

Geographic range size and speciation in honeyeaters
BMC Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Background Darwin and others proposed that a species’ geographic range size positively influences speciation likelihood, with the relationship potentially dependent on the mode of speciation and other contributing factors, including geographic setting ...

Ability of Current Phylogenetic Clustering to Detect Speciation History
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Phylogenetic diversity aims to quantify the evolutionary relatedness among the species comprising a community, using the phylogenetic tree as the metric of the evolutionary relationships.

Frequency-dependent selection predicts patterns of radiations and biodiversity. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2010 Most empirical studies support a decline in speciation rates through time, although evidence for constant speciation rates also exists. Declining rates have been explained by invoking pre-existing niches, whereas constant rates have been attributed to ...
