Genome‐Wide Detection of Copy Number Variation and Association Studies With Physiological and Anatomical Indicators of Heat Stress Response in Lactating Sows

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Indicators of heat stress response are heritable complex traits with polygenic inheritance. Copy number variations (CNV) are important genomic structural variations that may be linked to climatic adaptation by influencing the phenotypic variability of traits related to thermal stress and disease resistance in animals.

Environmental and Geographic Conditions on the Breeding Grounds Drive Bergmannian Clines in Nightjars

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate (1) whether three migratory nightjar species (Family Caprimulgidae) adhere to Bergmann's rule, (2) whether environmental factors on the breeding or wintering grounds determine body size, and (3) which mechanistic hypotheses best explain Bergmannian patterns in body size.

Ecological and Evolutionary Predictors of Dorsal Colouration in Lagomorphs

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the extent to which dorsal body colouration in lagomorphs follows ecogeographical patterns, particularly Gloger's rule, by assessing the relative influence of climate, forest vertical structure, and phylogenetic relatedness on eumelanin‐ and pheomelanin‐based pigmentation. Location Global. Time Period Contemporary.

Ecological and Morphological Traits Determine Community‐Wide Responses of Birds to Climate Change in a Tropical Dry Forest

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim We evaluate the potential consequences of climate change on the Caatinga Dry Forest, asking how the future climate would affect its avifauna under three different carbon emission scenarios. First, we evaluate potential climate‐induced distributional changes.
