More Choosy for Minor Foods: Diet, Seasonality and Food Selection in Sympatric Frugivorous and Folivorous Lemurs. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Primates are deliberate and intelligent foragers and are presumed to select foods that maximize their fitness, yet little is known about the actual rules of food selection based on the nutritional chemistry of those foods, and less is known about how sympatric primates differ.

Estimation of contemporary effective population size in plant populations: Limitations of genomic datasets. [PDF]

Evol Appl
Abstract Effective population size (Ne) is a pivotal evolutionary parameter with crucial implications in conservation practice and policy. Genetic methods to estimate Ne have been preferred over demographic methods because they rely on genetic data rather than time‐consuming ecological monitoring.

Unlocking Tropical Forest Complexity: How Tree Assemblages in Secondary Forests Boost Biodiversity Conservation. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Secondary forests are crucial for achieving COP15/16 conservation goals. An operational national approach was developed to identify and characterise forest ecosystems based on the dominant tree species in the canopy, serving as indicators for ecosystem extent and condition.

Wet Season Environments Drive Local Adaptation in the Timber Tree Dicorynia guianensis in French Guiana. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT The vast tropical rainforests of the Guiana Shield in Northern South America play a vital role in maintaining the region's ecological balance and economy. Increasing pressure from selective logging, gold mining and climate variability threatens these ecosystems. Sustainable rainforest management requires understanding the genetic diversity and

Widespread introduced species dominate the urban tree assemblage on the endemic-rich tropical island of São Tomé. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Afrotropical cities are growing rapidly but how this impacts biodiversity is largely unclear. Our study on São Tomé Island, Central Africa, reveals that the urban tree assemblage is impoverished and dominated by introduced species, while the natural forest is essential for the protection of native and endemic species.
