Phylogenetically Diverse Introgression Drives Subtle Population Structure in Pacific RockfishesNARA Subscribed
Genomic methods have shown that admixture and introgression are common across animal taxa. Pacific rockfishes, genus Sebastes , are a group of commercially important species that primarily inhabit inshore, shelf and slope habitats along the North American west coast. Among these, Copper and Quillback Rockfishes are closely related species known to hybridize, particularly within the Salish Sea in North America's Pacific Northwe...
Motivation The database initiated by the Mountain Invasion Research Network (MIREN) is one of the few globally implemented standardized vegetation surveys in mountains. The focus is on collecting plant species occurrences at 5‐year intervals along and adjacent to mountain roads spanning elevational gradients, with the goal of providing critical information about the ongoing spread of non‐native plants and the potential impacts...
Prevalence of haemosporidian parasites in raptors in rehabilitation centers across the United StatesNARA Subscribed
Avian haemosporidians are common vector-transmitted parasites that infect birds. Although avian haemosporidians have been studied extensively in songbirds, less is known about haemosporidian prevalence in raptors, particularly in the United States. We used molecular methods to test blood samples collected from raptors at five wildlife rehabilitation centers across the United States for avian haemosporidians. We identified para...
A ‘common garden’ experimental approach was used to evaluate the production and carrageenan properties of Kappaphycus alvarezii cultivars collected from ten different locations throughout Indonesia. The evaluation was done with three 45-day culture cycles reproducing the longline cultivation method generally used by Indonesian seaweed farmers. The advantage of the common garden approach is that it isolates genetic variability...
Lake sturgeon ( Acipenser fulvescens ) growth and longevity estimated from adult capture–mark–recapture dataNARA Subscribed
Effective fishery management policy depends on accurate life‐history data, particularly for harvested species. Longevity is a core life‐history trait that is directly related to annual survival and lifetime reproductive potential, but fish longevity is generally not well documented, particularly for long‐lived species. We used capture–mark–recapture data spanning 44 years as an alternative method to estimate sex‐specific adult...
Integrated Reanalysis of Global Riverine Fish eDNA Datasets Shows Robustness and Congruence of Biodiversity ConclusionsNARA Subscribed
The analysis of environmental DNA (eDNA) has revolutionized biodiversity assessments in aquatic ecosystems, enabling non‐invasive monitoring of fish communities across diverse regions. However, the global comparability of these eDNA datasets remains ambiguous due to heterogeneous sampling protocols and bioinformatic workflows across studies, making it difficult to assess how robust and comparable the biodiversity patterns infe...
Relationships among peri-traumatic circulating endocannabinoids and long-term, negative outcomes following traumatic injuryNARA Subscribed
Rationale Traumatically injured individuals can develop chronic negative psychological sequelae. Improved understanding of contributing, peri-traumatic risk factors is essential to reduce the risk of these consequences. Previous studies have found that peri-traumatic, circulating endocannabinoid concentrations are positively associated with development of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), chronic pain and depression month...
