Distribution under climate change of Anemone coronaria: linking flower colour and seed dispersal

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Flower colour polymorphism is driven by divergent selection regimes on the colour morphs across time and space. Anemone coronaria, a colour‐polymorphic geophyte with red, purple, and white flowers, displays a geographic pattern along Israel's aridity gradient: polymorphic populations are restricted to Mediterranean climates, while monomorphic‐red ...

Bone Anvils and New Types of Osseous Tools at Walīla (Volubilis, Morocco): Use of Animal Byproducts in the Industries of a Medieval Town

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bone anvils used to sharpen metal sickle blades are frequently documented in the archaeological record of the Roman and medieval Mediterranean and beyond, with new finds reported each year. This article reports anvils from the early medieval town of Walīla (Roman Volubilis) in northern Morocco and presents two other types of bone tools (bone ...

Age ratio in groups of a social ungulate affects epizoochorous dispersal and diaspore exchanges

Oikos, EarlyView.
Animal‐mediated seed dispersal is a key process in plant population dynamics, species distribution and ecosystem functioning. As long‐distance dispersal agents, ungulates help to maintain native plant populations facing abiotic changes in their habitat and habitat fragmentation or habitat loss.

Lupinosis and reproduction reduce the wool growth of Merino ewes

, 1997
Lupinosis was induced in Merino ewes by subcutaneous injections of phomopsins. Liver damage and impairment of liver function was measured by increases in plasma activities of glutamate dehydrogenase and gamma glutamyl transferase, plasma concentrations ...

Fruit use and fruit processing by euphonias, specialized avian frugivores

Oikos, EarlyView.
Euphonias (Neotropical passerines in the genera Euphonia and Chlorophonia) form the quintessential example of a specialized avian frugivore, combining a high reliance on fruit as food and the restriction of fruit taxa exploited. To understand their specialization, we explored the integration of fruit morphological and nutritional traits with their ...
