Bat-borne coronaviruses are of increasing interest due to their potential for zoonotic spillover, particularly within the Betacoronavirus genus. Partial genomic sequences related to MERS-like CoV was identified in multiple hosts, including humans, camelids, and bats from the families Vespertilionidae and Molossidae. In this study, we investigated the presence of coronaviruses in 65 Molossus molossus bats captured in southern B...
Physiological and Proteomic Shifts in Pfaffia glomerata Under Drought and Elevated CO₂NARA Subscribed
Drought is a major constraint to plant growth and productivity, and rising atmospheric CO₂ concentrations are expected to modify plant responses to water limitation. However, how CO₂ enrichment reshapes the physiological, metabolic, and molecular regulation of specialized metabolite production under drought remains poorly understood. Here, we investigated the combined effects of elevated CO₂ (e[CO₂]) and drought on plant morph...
The Brazilian Cerrado is becoming hotter and drierNARA Subscribed
The Brazilian Cerrado is a global biodiversity hotspot with notoriously high rates of native vegetation suppression and wildfires over the past three decades. As a result, climate change can already be detected at both local and regional scales. In this study, we used three different approaches based on independent datasets to investigate possible changes in the daytime and nighttime temperature and air humidity between the pe...
TRY plant trait database – enhanced coverage and open accessNARA Subscribed
Plant traits—the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants—determine how plants respond to environmental factors, affect other trophic levels, and influence ecosystem properties and their benefits and detriments to people. Plant trait data thus represent the basis for a vast area of research spanning from evolutionary biology, community and functional ecology, to biodivers...
Establishing links between phenotypic and genotypic variation is a central goal of evolutionary biology, as they might provide important insights into evolutionary processes shaping genetic and species diversity in nature. One of the more intriguing possibilities is when no genetic divergence is found to be associated with conspicuous phenotypic divergence. In that case, speciation theory predicts that phenotypic divergence ma...
ATLANTIC MAMMAL TRAITS : a data set of morphological traits of mammals in the Atlantic Forest of South AmericaNARA Subscribed
Measures of traits are the basis of functional biological diversity. Numerous works consider mean species‐level measures of traits while ignoring individual variance within species. However, there is a large amount of variation within species and it is increasingly apparent that it is important to consider trait variation not only between species, but also within species. Mammals are an interesting group for investigating trai...
