Home range size, habitat selection, and mycophagy of sympatric North American flying squirrels

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The northern flying squirrel (Glaucomys sabrinus) is a mycophagous specialist (i.e., having a fungi‐dominated diet) which might be displaced following northward range expansion by the congeneric southern flying squirrel (Glaucomys volans). Loss of the northern flying squirrel could, in turn, limit fungi spore dispersal in forest communities ...

Quantifying the Dietary Overlap of Two Co‐Occurring Mammal Species Using DNA Metabarcoding to Assess Potential Competition

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2025.
Interspecific competition among co‐occurring species with similar resource requirements can be assessed by measuring diet overlap. A study on common brushtail possums and bush rats used DNA metabarcoding of faecal samples to quantify their dietary overlap, finding a significant similarity.

Bayesian functional linear regression with sparse step functions

, 2016
The functional linear regression model is a common tool to determine the relationship between a scalar outcome and a functional predictor seen as a function of time. This paper focuses on the Bayesian estimation of the support of the coefficient function.

Habitat parameters influencing the distribution of a geographically isolated flying squirrel

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 6, Issue 6, June 2024.
The southern extent of Humboldt's Flying Squirrel (Glaucomys oregonensis) exists in the San Bernardino and San Jacinto mountains of southern California, USA. These two populations are isolated from the continuous northern range by 245 kilometers of Mojave Desert.

Unearthing the soil‐borne microbiome of land plants

Global Change Biology, Volume 30, Issue 5, May 2024.
We studied the soil organisms consistently associated with land plants (vascular plants and mosses) across contrasting climates, soils, and vegetation types. We found a small subset of bacteria, fungi, and protists that defined the consistent soil‐borne microbiome of land plants and determined their importance for the functioning of plant‐associated ...
