Temporal Changes in Land Use Highlight the Vulnerability of Highland Grasslands in Protected Areas in Southern Brazil

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.
Subtropical Highland Grasslands showed greater net conversion than Mixed Ombrophilous Forest across our study PAs. In one PA created to conserve Highland Grasslands, net grassland loss inside the PA exceeded loss in adjacent buffer zones during the study period.

Emergence of Livestock‐Associated Methicillin‐Resistant Staphylococcus aureus ST398 in Wild Birds, Brazil

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
In a protected forest fragment in southern Brazil, 197 wild birds were sampled, with 12.2% carrying Staphylococcus aureus. Two MRSA ST398 strains, the first reported in Brazilian wild birds, were identified. Genomic analysis revealed resistance and virulence genes, linking these strains to pigs and underscoring the critical need for resistance ...

Rapid DNA/eDNA‐Based ID Tools for Improved Chondrichthyan Monitoring and Management

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 8, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Rapid DNA/eDNA‐based ID tools, which detect specific genetic patterns without requiring sequencing, are essential for biodiversity and wildlife trade monitoring, particularly for species of conservation concern. However, the practical application of these methods remains limited by the availability of standardised protocols, accessibility of ...

Mapping Resilient Landscapes to Climate Change in a Megadiverse Country

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 10, October 2025.
Our mapping of terrestrial climate‐resilient sites for biodiversity across Brazil identifies sites with greater chances of providing suitable conditions for species to persist under regional climate change. Landscape resilience information has the potential to be used to effectively guide decision‐making and public policy on strategies for conservation,
