Vitamin B12 (cobalamin, Cbl) is a coordination compound of the cobalt, located at the center of a corrin ring composed of four pyrrolic-like groups. The cobalt ion can be bound to a variety of upper axial ligands, which vary among different cobalamin forms, including hydroxocobalamin (OHCbl), cyanocobalamin (CNCbl), methylcobalamin (MeCbl), and adenosylcobalamin (AdoCbl). MeCbl and AdoCbl are considered the biologically active...

Species distributed across heterogeneous environments often evolve locally adapted populations, but understanding how these persist in the presence of homogenizing gene flow remains puzzling. In Gabon, Anopheles coluzzii, a major African malaria mosquito, is found in various ecological settings, including urban areas, remote rural villages, and forested environments away from any human presence. This study investigates the gen...

The large‐scaled gurnard Lepidotrigla cavillone (Lacepède, 1801) is heavily affected by trawl fisheries targeting more economically valuable species. This species plays a key role in the food web and its potential collapse could negatively affect commercially exploited species. To date, few studies have attempted to provide needed life‐history information for this species' stock status evaluation. With this in mind, we collect...

The rapid increase in the volume and variety of terrestrial biosphere observations (i.e., remote sensing data and in situ measurements) offers a unique opportunity to derive ecological insights, refine process‐based models, and improve forecasting for decision support. However, despite their potential, ecological observations have primarily been used to benchmark process‐based models, as many past and current models lack the c...

Aim Trait variation across geographic gradients can reveal how species respond to different environmental settings, which is crucial under the growing threat of climate change. Although on the basis of evolutionary theory, the patterns and drivers of intraspecific functional variation remain largely underexplored. In ants, pilosity and body size are morphological traits associated to thermoregulation and heat tolerance, which...
