Aim Understanding the spatial distribution of genetic variation within species is a central tenet in evolutionary biology and conservation biology. This study explores how historical demographic processes and/or environmental factors interact to affect contemporary genetic variation and adaptive potential, with a specific focus on testing the ‘centre‐periphery’ hypothesis (CPH). Location Subtropical China. Taxon Liquidambar. M...

Green manuring and crop straw returning are widely used to increase soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration, while the pathways and drivers in native SOC mineralization and new SOC formation after implementing these practices remain unclear. Here, through a 10‐locations' network field experiment in southern China, the effects of green manuring (Mv), rice straw returning (Rs), and their combination (MR) on soil C sequestration...

Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis is one of the most commercially important marine cephalopod species distributed throughout tropical and subtropical waters of the Indo-Pacific Seas. The Indian Ocean is a main fishing ground for S. oualaniensis with a high population density. To explore the distribution of S. oualaniensis in the east equatorial Indian Ocean, four surveys were carried out using light-lift-net fishing vessels. Meanwhil...
