Aim Microbiome rewilding seeks to harness plant‐microbe interactions for sustainable agriculture, assuming that ancestral microbial partners have been lost during domestication and geographical spread. Designing microbiome rewilding strategies requires a quantitative and predictive understanding of the fundamental ecological processes—selection, dispersal, and drift—driving microbial assembly and persistence in the rhizosphere...
Renner recently offered a historical overview of Alexander von Humboldt and Aimé Bonpland's expeditions in the Tropical Andes and raises concerns regarding Siqueira‐Silva and colleagues, previously published in this journal. We clarify that these concerns arise from a misinterpretation of our data sources and analytical framework. Our study did not incorporate von Humboldt and Bonpland's collections, vegetation belts, or the T...
This study compared a silvopastoral system (SPS) with promising shrub and tree species against a traditional grazing system (TS) in the Amazonian foothills of Colombia, evaluating milk production and composition, dry matter intake (DMI), and economic performance. A crossover design was applied with 10 lactating gyr × holstein crossbreed cows. Dry matter intake, milk production and feed efficiency were significantly greater ( p...
Von Humboldt's Nightmare: Effects of Climate Change on the Plant Biodiversity of Mount Chimborazo (Tropical Andes)NARA Subscribed
Aim Mountain plants are highly sensitive to the effects of climate change, and many species have shifted upwards and lost habitat as temperatures rise. Two centuries after Alexander von Humboldt and Aimé Bonpland's renowned expedition to Mount Chimborazo (Tropical Andes, Ecuador), significant upward shifts have been detected in the mountain's vegetation due to climate change. Here, we conduct a study to forecast the effects of...
Limpet harvesting is a size‐selective activity that primarily removes the largest individuals, leading to reduced reproductive output. This study investigates the fecundity strategies of two limpet species, Patella aspera and Patella crenata , inhabiting the rocky shores of Gran Canaria. Between September 2023 and April 2024, a total of 288 P. aspera and 364 P. crenata specimens were sampled from four coastal settlements. Both...
The reef fish communities of the Guanahacabibes National Park have been studied for 20 years using various methodologies that have allowed us to understand aspects of their diversity and structure. However, due to gaps in information about the abundance and distribution of mesopredators (big fish and sharks), a new study was conducted in 2017 to determine their structure, explore the influence of different factors on their spa...
Geography and ecology shape the phylogenetic composition of Amazonian tree communitiesNARA Subscribed
Aim Amazonia hosts more tree species from numerous evolutionary lineages, both young and ancient, than any other biogeographic region. Previous studies have shown that tree lineages colonized multiple edaphic environments and dispersed widely across Amazonia, leading to a hypothesis, which we test, that lineages should not be strongly associated with either geographic regions or edaphic forest types. Location Amazonia. Taxon A...
The abundant fraction of soil microbiomes regulates the rhizosphere function in crop wild progenitorsNARA Subscribed
The rhizosphere influence on the soil microbiome and function of crop wild progenitors (CWPs) remains virtually unknown, despite its relevance to develop microbiome‐oriented tools in sustainable agriculture. Here, we quantified the rhizosphere influence—a comparison between rhizosphere and bulk soil samples—on bacterial, fungal, protists and invertebrate communities and on soil multifunctionality across nine CWPs at their site...
NEOTROPICAL FRESHWATER FISHES : A dataset of occurrence and abundance of freshwater fishes in the NeotropicsNARA Subscribed
The Neotropical region hosts 4225 freshwater fish species, ranking first among the world's most diverse regions for freshwater fishes. Our NEOTROPICAL FRESHWATER FISHES data set is the first to produce a large‐scale Neotropical freshwater fish inventory, covering the entire Neotropical region from Mexico and the Caribbean in the north to the southern limits in Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay. We compiled 185,787 distri...
Geographic patterns of tree dispersal modes in Amazonia and their ecological correlatesNARA Subscribed
Aim To investigate the geographic patterns and ecological correlates in the geographic distribution of the most common tree dispersal modes in Amazonia (endozoochory, synzoochory, anemochory and hydrochory). We examined if the proportional abundance of these dispersal modes could be explained by the availability of dispersal agents (disperser‐availability hypothesis) and/or the availability of resources for constructing zoocho...
Experimental evidence of antimicrobial activity in Antarctic seaweeds: ecological role and antibiotic potentialNARA Subscribed
Seaweeds contain a wide range of secondary metabolites which serve multiple functions, including chemical and ecological mediation with microorganisms. Moreover, owing to their diverse bioactivity, including their antibiotic properties, they show potential for human use. Nonetheless, the chemical ecology of seaweeds is not equally understood across different regions; for example, Antarctic seaweeds are among the lesser studied...
