What makes a long tail short? Testing Allen's rule in the toque macaques of Sri Lanka

Sign Up to like & get
recommendations! Published in 2020 at "American Journal of Primatology"

DOI: 10.1002/ajp.23113

Abstract: Allen's rule (1877) predicts ecogeographical anatomical variation in appendage proportions as a function of body temperature regulation. This phenomenon has been tested in a variety of animal species. In macaques, relative tail length (RTL) is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/aps3.11474

Abstract: Abstract Premise Seed recruitment niches along estuarine elevation gradients are seldom experimentally field‐tested under tidal regimes of the Pacific Northwest of North America. Addressing this knowledge gap is important to better understand estuary restoration and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/bem.22425

Abstract: Mounting evidence suggests enhanced blood pressure (BP) variability (BPV) independent role in cardiovascular (CV) damage. The goal was to estimate the effect of the carotid baroreceptor (CB) magnetic stimulation on sudden high BP elevation. Mean… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2018 at "Clinical Cardiology"

DOI: 10.1002/clc.23062

Abstract: Hypothyroidism has been known to be associated with hyperlipidemia, endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis. Elevation of thyroid‐stimulation hormone (TSH) is a gold standard to detect these conditions. However, no large studies have investigated the association between… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/clc.23755

Abstract: Treatment decisions in myocardial infarction (MI) are currently stratified by ST elevation (ST‐elevation myocardial infarction [STEMI]) or lack of ST elevation (non‐ST elevation myocardial infarction [NSTEMI]) on the electrocardiogram. This arose from the assumption that… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2024 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.11151

Abstract: Abstract Conservation areas encompassing elevation gradients are biodiversity hotspots because they contain a wide range of habitat types in a relatively small space. Studies of biodiversity patterns along elevation gradients, mostly on small mammal or… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.70144

Abstract: Abstract Oceanic archipelagos provide striking examples of lineages that have radiated over pronounced ecological gradients. Accompanying this diversification, lineages have evolved adaptations allowing survival in extreme environments. Here, we investigate the genomic basis of ecological… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.72074

Abstract: ABSTRACT In the context of global change, mountain ecosystems are facing more threats than ever. Therefore, understanding spatial distribution patterns of diversity and their driving factors on mountains is gaining increasing attention. Although comprising an… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2021 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.7341

Abstract: Abstract Aim Anticipating and mitigating the impacts of climate change on species diversity in montane ecosystems requires a mechanistic understanding of drivers of current patterns of diversity. We documented the shape of elevational gradients in… read more here.

Environmental heterogeneity shapes physiological traits in tropical direct‐developing frogs

Sign Up to like & get
recommendations! Published in 2021 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.7521

Abstract: Abstract Tropical ectotherm species tend to have narrower physiological limits than species from temperate areas. As a consequence, tropical species are considered highly vulnerable to climate change since minor temperature increases can push them beyond… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2022 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9012

Abstract: Abstract Heterogeneity in riverine habitats acts as a template for species evolution that influences river communities at different spatio‐temporal scales. Although birds are conspicuous elements of these communities, the roles of phylogeny, functional traits, and… read more here.
