Comprehensive analysis of epigenetic clocks reveals associations between disproportionate biological ageing and hippocampal volumeNARA Subscribed
The concept of age acceleration, the difference between biological age and chronological age, is of growing interest, particularly with respect to age-related disorders, such as Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). Whilst studies have reported associations with AD risk and related phenotypes, there remains a lack of consensus on these associations. Here we aimed to comprehensively investigate the relationship between five recognised meas...
Commentary on Coram et al. (2021) on the use of Facebook to understand marine mammal stranding issues in Southeast AsiaNARA Subscribed
We reviewed Coram et al. (Biodivers Conserv 30:2341–2359, 2021, 10.1007/s10531-021-02196-6 ), a paper that highlights the use of social media data to understand marine litter and marine mammals in Southeast Asia. While we commend its intent, we find that the methodology used and conclusions drawn portray an incomplete and inaccurate perception of how strandings, stranding response, and analysis of stranding data have been cond...
Selection for cheating across disparate environments in the legume‐rhizobium mutualismNARA Subscribed
The primary dilemma in evolutionarily stable mutualisms is that natural selection for cheating could overwhelm selection for cooperation. Cheating need not entail parasitism; selection favours cheating as a quantitative trait whenever less‐cooperative partners are more fit than more‐cooperative partners. Mutualisms might be stabilised by mechanisms that direct benefits to more‐cooperative individuals, which counter selection f...
Intraspecific genetic variation can affect community structure and ecosystem processes (Bolnick et al . 2011). It can also influence phenotypic expression by genotypes within other species to produce genotype‐by‐genotype ( G × G ) interaction (Falconer & Mackay 1996). Evolution of one species drives correlated evolution of others when it causes G × G for fitness (Thompson 2005). However, the mechanisms by which species interac...
