Adaptation of microbial communities to anthropogenic stressors can lead to reductions in microbial diversity and disequilibrium of ecosystem services. Such adaptation can change the molecular signatures of communities with differences in taxonomic and ...

Prescottia equi gen. nov., comb. nov.: a new home for an old pathogen [PDF]
The taxonomic status of Rhodococcus equi, originally isolated from foal specimens, has been the subject of discussion for a number of years. The chequered history of the taxon has prompted this polyphasic analysis of R. equi strains, close members of the

Taxon Influence Index: Assessing Taxon-Induced Incongruities in Phylogenetic Inference [PDF]
Understanding the evolutionary history of species is at the core of molecular evolution and is done using several inference methods. The critical issue is to quantify the uncertainty of the inference. The posterior probabilities in Bayesian phylogenetic inference and the bootstrap values in frequentist approaches measure the variability of the ...

Seed Mass and Morphology in Outcrossing and Selfing Species of Clarkia (Onagraceae): An SEM Study [PDF]
Seeds from three pairs of outcrossing-selfing sister taxa from the genus Clarkia (farewell-to-spring, Onagraceae)—Clarkia unguiculata, Clarkia exilis, Clarkia xantiana ssp. xantiana and ssp. parviflora, and Clarkia concinna ssp.

Why Vouchers Matter in Botanical Research
What is a voucher and why is it important in research? As a preserved specimen of an identified taxon deposited in a permanent and accessible storage facility, the voucher serves as the supporting material for published studies of the taxon and ensures ...

Apple is cultivated in most of the temperate regions due to the fruit’s quality, its easiness to propagate, and its natural aptitude to bear. Malus classifications differ primarily in the taxonomic level at which infrageneric groupings of species are ...

A new subspecies of Stellaria alsine (Caryophyllaceae) from Yakushima, Japan [PDF]
An unknown taxon of Stellaria was discovered in Yakushima, a Japanese island known to harbor several endemic species. To determine the identity of this taxon, this study employed MIG-seq for the reconstruction of a finely resolved phylogenetic tree of ...

Species relationships in the genus Vasconcellea (Caricaceae) based on molecular and morphological evidence [PDF]
Validity of the taxa currently recognized in the genus Vasconcellea was analyzed by investigating morphological and molecular data from 105 specimens of this genus and six specimens of the related genus Carica. Taxon identification of these specimens was

Match Algorithms for Scientific Names in FlorItaly, the Portal to the Flora of Italy
Scientific names are not part of everyday language in any modern country, and their input as strings in a query system can be easily associated with typographical errors.

Influence of nontrophic interactions between benthic invertebrates on river sediment processes: a microcosm study [PDF]
The main objective of this study was to measure the impact of benthic invertebrate diversity on river sediment processes. We quantified the effects of interactions between three taxa (asellids, chironomid larvae, and tubificid worms).
