Taxonomic, Phylogenetic and Functional Diversity of Mammals Across a Nationwide Protected Area Network

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Using camera‐trap data from 26 protected across Tanzania, we show that greater landscape heterogeneity and stronger protection are associated with higher mammal species richness and, in turn, functionally and phylogenetically richer mammal assemblages. Greater landscape heterogeneity appears to favour generalist species while stronger protection seems ...

Tipping the Scales Using Cryopreservation: Modelling the Genetic Value and Management Potential of Integrated Cryopreservation for Threatened Ex‐Situ Pupfish Populations

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract depicts the number of additional fish that would be required to achieve 90% genetic diversity for endangered pupfish species housed in EAZA collections, with or without the use of cryopreserved material. ABSTRACT Zoos and aquaria must retain genetic diversity for the species they house if the populations are to remain viable ...

Supplementing beef cattle diets with brown seaweed affects coprophagous beetles' dung use

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Supplementing beef cattle diets with brown seaweed reduced the attractiveness of dung for a common dung beetle (Onthophagus nuchicornis). Dietary supplementation with brown seaweed appeared to reduce the proportion of major males in the F1 generation.

Influence of Environmental Pollution on Basophil Reactivity to Birch Pollen Allergens in Atopic and Non‐Atopic Subjects

Allergy, EarlyView.
Birch pollen and PM10 are key determinants of clinical symptoms, particularly in asthma. Allergic people react stronger to the pollen collected in the highly polluted area than in the less polluted areas. When evaluating the effectiveness of allergen immunotherapy, it is essential to consider not only pollen concentrations but also levels of air ...
