The most abundant and widespread of Australia's rock‐rats shows marked genetic diversity, with the Great Sandy Desert marking a long‐standing genetic dichotomy between populations in the monsoonal and arid biomes. Genetically depauperate relictual island populations formed from 10 ky bp are divergent but nonetheless align with mainland cognates, and ...

Empowering Regional Conservation: Genetic Diversity Assessments as a Tool for Eelgrass Management
ABSTRACT To halt the loss of biodiversity, collaboration among scientists, managers and decision‐makers is vital. Although biodiversity loss is a global problem, management actions influencing diversity are often on a local to regional scale. Our study is an example of a regional conservation genomic assessment developed in collaboration between ...

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

ABSTRACT Global change and urbanisation profoundly alter wildlife habitats, driving native animals into novel habitats while increasing the co‐occurrence between native and invasive species. Host‐microbiome associations are shaped by host traits and environmental features, but little is known about their plasticity in co‐occurring native and invasive ...

Anti‐mosquito salivary gland antibodies were detected in the sera of macaques (Macaca arctoides, M. leonina and M. fascicularis) from Kaeng Krachan, Khao Yai and Mu Ko Ranong National Parks, respectively. For M. leonina and M. fascicularis, the highest titres were against Ae. aegypti while Ae. albopictus antibody titres were observed in M.

Schwannia was recently reestablished and circumscribed to include most of the species previously included in the non‐monophyletic Janusia s.lat. The recently published Janusia longibracteolata Amorim & R.Sebast. clearly matches the morphology of Schwannia due to its enantiostylous flowers, petal margin long‐fimbriate, 6 fertile stamens, and curved ...

There is an urgent need for woodland expansion to help enhance and restore vital forest ecosystem services. However, the process of natural regeneration of woodlands is often slow, requiring active reforestation approaches. Factors limiting regeneration are complex, but there is increasing evidence that natural woodland expansion onto sites that have ...

Shifting baselines and the forgotten giants: integrating megafauna into plant community ecology
The extensive, prehistoric loss of megafauna during the last 50 000 years led early naturalists to build the founding theories of ecology based on already‐degraded ecosystems. In this article, we outline how large herbivores affect community ecology, with a special focus on plants, through changes to selection, speciation, drift, and dispersal, thereby

Human Population and the Biosphere
Abstract The neglect of population in national and international discourses on environment and development has led to a misleading picture of policy options. This article reconstructs the language in which extreme poverty and economic development are discussed by deploying recent advances in our understanding of the population–consumption–biosphere ...
