Collection, handling and care of cephalopod eggsNARA Subscribed
Research on cephalopod early ontogeny has significantly advanced in recent decades, including embryo organogenesis and neurogenesis and early behavioural adaptations, particularly in commercially important and coastal species. Within this context, here we compiled current knowledge on the collection, handling and care under experimental conditions and monitoring in the field of cephalopod eggs and egg masses. It covers field o...
Towards an aligned nutritional and environmental impact assessment: a state-of-the-art reviewNARA Subscribed
Purpose While nutritional life cycle assessment (n-LCA) aims to integrate health and environmental sustainability, the compatibility of underlying data and methodological choices remains unclear. So, this study critically evaluates whether nutritional and environmental dimensions are methodologically adequate and aligned in n-LCAs. We assessed the consistency of functional units, system boundaries, data sources, geographic rep...
Eastern North Atlantic Strandings Validate Genetic Patterns in Pygmy and Dwarf Sperm Whales (Kogiidae)NARA Subscribed
Pygmy ( Kogia breviceps ) and dwarf ( Kogia sima ) sperm whales are among the least studied cetaceans due to their elusive behavior and low detectability at sea. Molecular approaches are therefore essential to clarify their taxonomy, population structure, and conservation status. We present new mitochondrial DNA data from stranded K. breviceps and K. sima specimens collected across the eastern North Atlantic, a region previous...
Top‐Down and Bottom‐Up Effects on Insect Herbivores Under Global Change—A Meta‐AnalysisNARA Subscribed
Global environmental change is driving widespread insect declines, yet underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood, particularly when mediated by trophic interactions. Many studies purportedly test global change stressors on insect herbivores mediated via their host plants (bottom‐up) and natural enemies (top‐down), but we lack a comprehensive understanding of overall effects. Here, we performed a meta‐analysis of 246 paper...
Anything you can eat, I can eat better: Evidence of generalism from species to individual level in an insect herbivoreNARA Subscribed
Most insect herbivores specialize on a few host plants; however, there are a minority of highly generalized species capable of feeding on hundreds of hosts. Generalism could emerge as a property of the species as a whole, while individuals would still exhibit greater specialization at more specific organizational levels. Yet, we lack studies with generalist insect herbivores directly testing this prediction. Here, we test if t...
