ARL3 mutations cause Joubert syndrome by disrupting ciliary protein composition [PDF]

, 2018
Joubert syndrome (JBTS) is a genetically heterogeneous autosomal recessive neurodevelopmental ciliopathy. We investigated further the underlying genetic etiology of Joubert syndrome by studying two unrelated families in whom JBTS was not associated ...

Roadkill risk in European birds: the role of detection and plumage colouration

Oikos, EarlyView.
Wildlife–vehicle collisions (WVCs) are a significant cause of mortality among European birds. This poses a threat to the conservation of birds because pervasive human‐related structures, such as road networks, are expected to expand over the continent in the next few decades.

Functional and phylogenetic beta diversity response of nocturnal moth assemblages to land‐use intensity in grasslands and forests

Oikos, EarlyView.
Land‐use intensification is filtering for species, able to cope with anthropogenic landscapes. This was assumed to result in functionally and phylogenetically homogenous communities, but a recent meta‐analysis could not confirm a consistent homogenization response to human pressure and raises open questions.

Vertical and temporal niche partitioning in Amazonian butterflies: implications for the evolution of thermal tolerance

Oikos, EarlyView.
Closely related species living in sympatry are often partitioned into divergent ecological niches. Such specialization can be enabled by the evolution of divergent traits enhancing adaptation to different niches. In this study, we investigate the partitioning of closely related butterfly species into different forest strata and daily activity time and ...

Spring fever: collared lemmings warm up above the snow despite predation risk

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Small mammals inhabiting cold climates face high heat losses and thus, high energy demands for body temperature regulation. However, behavioral adaptations, such as seeking refuge from extreme cold in the subnivean space, can reduce the energetic cost of

Effect of temperature on body temperature and resting metabolic rate in pups of Eothenomys miletus [PDF]

Journal of Stress Physiology & Biochemistry, 2013
In order to investigate the ability of ambient temperature and thermoregulation in Eothenomys miletus, body temperature and resting metabolic rate (RMR) were measured during postnatal development (1-49 day) when E.

When water interacts with temperature: Ecological and evolutionary implications of thermo‐hydroregulation in terrestrial ectotherms

Ecology and Evolution, 2019
The regulation of body temperature (thermoregulation) and of water balance (defined here as hydroregulation) are key processes underlying ecological and evolutionary responses to climate fluctuations in wild animal populations.

Modernizing Relationship Therapy through Social Thermoregulation Theory: Evidence, Hypotheses, and Explorations

Frontiers in Psychology, 2017
In the present article the authors propose to modernize relationship therapy by integrating novel sensor and actuator technologies that can help optimize people’s thermoregulation, especially as they pertain to social contexts. Specifically, they propose
