Will seed dispersers keep pace? Vulnerability of seed-dispersing mammals to climate change in the Mesoamerican seasonally dry forestNARA Subscribed
Seed-dispersing mammals play essential roles in forest regeneration, landscape connectivity, and the maintenance of plant diversity. Understanding the impacts of climate change on these species is critical, particularly in highly threatened ecosystems such as tropical seasonally dry forests. Here, we assessed how projected climate change could affect the distribution of 87 seed-dispersing mammal species within the Mesoamerican...
Consistent topsoil carbon density and driving factors in urban greenspaces and natural ecosystemsNARA Subscribed
Background Urban greenspaces have the potential to mitigate urban carbon footprints by storing soil organic carbon (SOC). Different management and plant communities associated with different types of urban greenspaces may hold contrasting SOC, as well as different proportions of particulate (POC) and mineral-associated organic carbon (MAOC). In addition, management could outweigh the effects of climate or soil properties as dr...
Marine megafauna species are affected by a wide range of anthropogenic threats. To evaluate the risk of such threats, species’ vulnerability to each threat must first be determined. We build on the existing threats classification scheme and ranking system of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species by assessing the vulnerability of 256 marine megafauna species to 23 at‐sea threat...
Fusarium sp. Strain K-23 Alleviates Salt Stress in Arabidopsis thaliana Through its Root Hair Growth-Promoting EffectNARA Subscribed
Soil salinity is a significant abiotic stress factor that impedes plant growth and crop yield, particularly in arid and semi-arid regions. Recent reports indicate that 8.7% of soils globally and 20–50% of irrigated soils across all continents are affected by salt. This phenomenon jeopardizes the food security of more than 1.5 billion people worldwide. Numerous studies have elucidated the beneficial effects of diverse microbes...
A New Neotropical Species of Gnathostoma (Nematoda: Gnathostomatidae) from the Northern Four-Eyed Opossum Philander vossi (Marsupialia)NARA Subscribed
Purpose This work provides a detailed morphological description of a previously identified but unnamed lineage inside Gnathostoma spp. from Mexico. Methods Specimens of the four-eyed opossum Philader vossi were collected in Tlacotalpan, Veracruz, Mexico. Specimens were examined morphologically using both light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Additionally, we generate DNA sequences for the following loci: mitochond...
