Published in 2024 at "Population Ecology"

DOI: 10.1002/1438-390x.12192

Abstract: Pedigree data have provided indispensable information for the study of ecology and evolution. Improvement of bioinformatics guidelines for discovering informative single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from genomic data is essential for pedigree reconstruction because of the… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Population Ecology"

DOI: 10.1002/1438-390x.70002

Abstract: Space use and movement are fundamental aspects of organisms' ecology, mirroring individual fitness, behavior, and life‐history strategies. These mechanisms are shaped by environmental heterogeneity, which often makes it difficult to understand these dynamics. Subterranean habitats… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Progress in Human Geography"

DOI: 10.1002/9781118786352.wbieg1110

Abstract: It has been over 15 years since the term ‘urban political ecology’ (UPE) was coined. While still often not incorporated into larger discussion of political ecology, its growing visibility in the published literature suggests that… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "American journal of botany"

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.1275

Abstract: PREMISE Evolutionary transitions among floral morphologies, many of which provide evidence for adaptation to novel pollinators, are common. Some trumpet-shaped flowers are among the largest flowers in angiosperms, occurring in different lineages. Our goal was… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "American journal of botany"

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.1447

Abstract: PREMISE Water-pollination (hydrophily) is a rare but important pollination mechanism that has allowed angiosperms to colonize marine and aquatic habitats. Hydrophilous plants face unique reproductive challenges, and many have evolved characteristic pollen traits and pollination… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "American journal of botany"

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16028

Abstract: PREMISE As part of global change, climate warming and pollinator decline are expected to affect plant phenology and plant-pollinator interactions. This paper aims at characterizing rapid evolution of life history traits and floral traits over… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "American Journal of Botany"

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16085

Abstract: Abstract Premise Numerous processes influence plant distributions and co‐occurrence patterns, including ecological sorting, limiting similarity, and stochastic effects. To discriminate among these processes and determine the spatial scales at which they operate, we investigated how… read more here.
