Data from: High-density lipoprotein receptor SCARB1 is required for...
Yellow, orange, and red coloration is a fundamental aspect of avian diversity and serves as an important signal in mate choice and aggressive interactions. This coloration is often produced through the...
View ArticleData from: Widespread hybridization within mound-building wood ants in...
Hybridization and gene flow between diverging lineages is increasingly recognized as a common evolutionary process and its consequences can vary from hybrid breakdown to adaptive introgression. We have...
View ArticleData from: Unravelling seed dispersal through fragmented landscapes:...
Seed dispersal constitutes a pivotal process in an increasingly fragmented world, promoting population connectivity, colonization and range shifts in plants. Unveiling how multiple frugivore species...
View ArticleData from: Habitat patch use by fishers in the deciduous forest-dominated...
Fishers (Pekania pennanti) are often associated with the coniferous and mixed forests of the northern United States and central Canada, and their ecology has been studied extensively in portions of...
View ArticleData from: Provisioning tactics of great tits in response to long-term brood...
Parents provisioning their offspring can adopt different tactics to meet increases in offspring demand. In this study, we experimentally manipulated brood demand in free living great tits (Parus major)...

Delineating species boundaries in the framework of the multi-species coalescent (MSC) proves to be a reliable, objective, and reproducible method in an increasing number of studies. However, the...
View ArticleData from: The diet of a nocturnal pelagic predator, the Bulwer’s petrel,...
The lunar cycle is believed to strongly influence the vertical distribution of many oceanic taxa, with implications for the foraging behaviour of nocturnal marine predators. Most studies to date...
View ArticleData from: Warming advances top-down control and reduces producer biomass in...
Global warming has been shown to affect ecosystems worldwide. Warming may, for instance, disrupt plant herbivore synchrony and bird phenology in terrestrial systems, reduce primary production in...
View ArticleData from: Comparative water use by maize, perennial crops, restored prairie,...
Water use by plant communities across years of varying water availability indicates how terrestrial water balances will respond to climate change and variability as well as to land cover change....
View ArticleData from: Inferring pathobiology from structural MRI in schizophrenia and...
Despite over 400 peer-reviewed structural MRI publications documenting neuroanatomic abnormalities in bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, the confounding effects of head motion and the regional...
View ArticleData from: A resource on latitudinal and altitudinal clines of ecologically...
The unique geography of the Indian subcontinent has provided diverse natural environments for a variety of organisms. In this region, many ecological indices such as temperature and humidity vary...
View ArticleData from: Seawater environmental DNA reflects seasonality of a coastal fish...
Coastal marine fish populations are in decline due to overfishing, habitat destruction, climate change and invasive species. Seasonal monitoring is important for detecting temporal changes in the...
View ArticleData from: Benefits of polyandry: molecular evidence from field-caught dung...
When females mate with multiple males, they set the stage for post-copulatory sexual selection via sperm competition and/or cryptic female choice. Surprisingly little is known about the rates of...
View ArticleData from: Heat stress affects facultative symbiont-mediated protection from...
Many insects carry facultative bacterial symbionts, which provide benefits including resistance to natural enemies and abiotic stresses. Little is known about how these beneficial phenotypes are...
View ArticleData from: A single migrant enhances the genetic diversity of an inbred puma...
Migration is essential for maintaining genetic diversity among populations, and pumas (Puma concolor) provide an excellent model for studying the genetic impacts of migrants on populations isolated by...
View ArticleData from: Friends and Family: a software program for identification of...
The identification of related and unrelated individuals from molecular marker data is often difficult, particularly when no pedigree information is available and the data set is large. High levels of...
View ArticleData from: Hybridization increases mitochondrial production of reactive...
Mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress have been suggested to be possible mechanisms underlying hybrid breakdown, as a result of mito-nuclear incompatibilities in respiratory complexes of the...
View ArticleData from: Pace-of-life in a social insect: behavioral syndromes in ants...
Behavioral syndromes are correlations between behavioral traits, but their selective advantage under different environmental conditions is not well understood. Here, we used the pace-of-life hypothesis...
View ArticleData from: Floral resource availability from groundcover promotes bee...
Patterns of bee abundance and diversity across different spatial scales have received thorough research consideration. However, the impact of short and long term temporal resource availability on...
View ArticleData from: Combined analysis of extant Rhynchonellida (Brachiopoda) using...
Independent molecular and morphological phylogenetic analyses have often produced discordant results for certain groups which, for fossil-rich groups, raises the possibility that morphological data...
