Effects of cold stress on reproductive biology and epigenetic profiles of the alpine plant Ranunculus kuepferi (Ranunculaceae)
(2022-01-17)Alpine habitats are shaped by harsh abiotic conditions and cold climates. Plant life in such habitats is challenging, as environmental influence can alter the conditions for development and reproduction. More specifically, ... -
Impacts of leaf litter diversity and root resources on microorganisms and microarthropods (Acari, Collembola) during early stages of decomposition in tropical montane rainforest ecosystems
(2021-03-04)Soil organisms influence organic matter turnover and nutrient cycling via processing of organic matter entering the soil as litter and root-derived resources. Plant species differ enormously in the quality and quantity of ... -
Evolution of Melicope J.R.Forst & G.Forst (Rutaceae), the largest adaptive radiation of woody plants on the Hawaiian Islands.
(2020-11-27)Adaptive radiation describes the divergence of an ancestral taxon into multiple, phenotypically diverse species, adapted to a range of ecological niches by means of natural selection. The process is recognized as a fundamental ... -
No sex, No problem? Mutation accumulation in asexual animals
(2020-07-03)According to classical predictions, sex is beneficial because it allows for purging of slightly deleterious mutations via effective purifying selection. In asexual organisms mutational load increases over time, eventually ... -
Habitat selection, cryptic diversity, phylogeny, and phylogeography of the European Lepidocyrtus lanuginosus species group (Collembola: Entomobryidae)
(2019-02-12)Accurate species identification and assessment of species diversity are essential for studies on phylogeny and phylogeography, adaptation and ecological function. The development of molecular methods triggered the discovery ...
