Phenological shift mitigates predicted impacts of climate change on sea turtle offspring

open access: yesEndangered Species Research
Many studies have documented the impacts of climate change on species and ecosystems, but few have shown how species may respond to mitigate these effects.

Investigations of the Evolved Molecular Basis for Terpenoid Biosynthesis in Marine Sponges

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Confirming and extending a previous observation in another Bubarida sponge, genomic and functional analyses of A. cavernosa reveal that sponges retain the mevalonate pathway and employ single α‐domain T1TSs and UbiA‐type TSs for terpenoid biosynthesis. The absence of T1TSs clustering with other biosynthetic genes tentatively suggests, based on limited ...

Big and Fast: GPS Loggers Reveal Long-Range Movements in a Large, Riverine Turtle

open access: yesConservation
Rio Grande Cooters (Pseudemys gorzugi) occupy the Rio Grande watershed and have among the smallest ranges of all North American freshwater turtles. Anthropogenic dewatering is considered to have caused range contractions and population declines.

State-dependent risk-taking by green sea turtles mediates top-down effects of tiger shark intimidation in a marine ecosystem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
1. A predictive framework of community and ecosystem dynamics that applies across systems has remained elusive, in part because non-consumptive predator effects are often ignored.

Exploring the Impact of Meat Alternative Labeling Regulations on the U.S. Meat Consumption Patterns

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global demand for conventional meat continues to rise, but it is also associated with substantial environmental and health challenges. In response, meat alternatives have gained popularity, sparking debates over meat alternative labeling regulations. This study investigates the effects of meat alternative labeling regulations in the United

The relative withdrawal of GFAP—An essential component of brain evolution

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy
The glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) is the principal intermediate filament protein and histochemical marker for astroglia. It appears contradictory that there are extended GFAP-poor or even GFAP-free areas in the brains of various vertebrate ...

Mycotic Diseases in Chelonians

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2023
Turtles and ‘tortoises’ populations are declining in number, the factors driving extinction risks being related to habitat loss and degradation, climate change, introduction of invasive plant and animal species, consumption by humans for food and ...
