Genomic Connectivity and Adaptation Signals of the Freshwater Sponge Ephydatia muelleri Across Its DistributionNARA Subscribed
Aim Genetic connectivity and local adaptation were examined across the distribution of the freshwater sponge Ephydatia muelleri . Because it occupies an exceptional breadth of freshwater environments across a broad geographic range, this species offers key insights into biogeographic processes shaping genetic structure and adaptation in inland waters. Location Freshwater habitats across North America, Europe and Asia. Taxon Fr...
Variability of photosynthetic and related traits in maize and other summer crops in a temperate humid areaNARA Subscribed
Photosynthetic rate and water use efficiency (WUE) are crucial for the sustainable use of water in agriculture. Our objective was to analyze the variability of photosynthetic and related traits in maize ( Zea mays L.) and other summer crops in a temperate humid area. We evaluated photosynthetic parameters in maize for three years and compared them to pigeonpea and chickpea, adapted to arid environments, and pepper, tomato and...
An updated life‐history scheme for marine fishes predicts recruitment variability and sensitivity to exploitationNARA Subscribed
Aim Patterns of population renewal in marine fishes are often irregular and lead to volatile fluctuations in abundance that challenge management and conservation efforts. Here, we examine the relationship between life‐history strategies and recruitment variability in exploited marine fish species using a macroecological approach. Location Global ocean. Time period 1950–2018. Major taxa studied Bony and cartilaginous fish. Meth...
The abyssal demosponge Plenaster craigi inhabits the Clarion‐Clipperton Zone ( CCZ ) in the northeast Pacific, a region with abundant seafloor polymetallic nodules with potential mining interest. Since P. craigi is a very abundant encrusting sponge on nodules, understanding its genetic diversity and connectivity could provide important insights into extinction risks and design of marine protected areas. Our main aim was to ass...
The spring phytoplankton bloom plays a key role in the dynamics of temperate and polar seas. Nevertheless, the mechanisms and processes behind these blooms remain a subject of considerable debate. We analyzed the influence of deep mixing during winter on the spring phytoplankton bloom in the Cantabrian Sea (southern Bay of Biscay). To this end, we combined long‐term physical and biogeochemical in situ data (1993–2012) and sate...
Local genes for local bacteria: Evidence of allopatry in the genomes of transatlantic Campylobacter populationsNARA Subscribed
The genetic structure of bacterial populations can be related to geographical locations of isolation. In some species, there is a strong correlation between geographical distance and genetic distance, which can be caused by different evolutionary mechanisms. Patterns of ancient admixture in Helicobacter pylori can be reconstructed in concordance with past human migration, whereas in Mycobacterium tuberculosis it is the lack of...
