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.

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16273
Abstract: PREMISE Density-dependent pollinator visitation can lead to density-dependent mating patterns and within-population genetic structure. In Gymnadenia conopsea, individuals in low-density patches receive more self pollen than individuals in high-density patches, suggesting higher relatedness at low… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajp.70088
Abstract: As a major model for biomedical research, the rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) is one of the most important and heavily studied nonhuman primates. Despite this importance, the level of population structure and subspecific division in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/aqc.3139
Abstract: Protecting species often involves the designation of protected areas, wherein suitable management strategies are applied either at the taxon or ecosystem level. Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) have been created in European waters under the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.2830
Abstract: Abstract Geographic variation is commonly observed in plant resistance traits, where plant species might experience different selection pressure across a heterogeneous landscape. Arabidopsis halleri subsp. gemmifera is dimorphic for trichome production, generating two morphs, trichome‐producing… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.71380
Abstract: ABSTRACT Insect antennae are covered in hairlike sensilla that detect diverse environmental cues. Selection on these functions has produced a bewildering variety of antennal forms, including many examples of sexual dimorphism (SD). Antenna length SD… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9031
Abstract: Abstract Predicting the likelihood of wildlife presence at potential wildlife–livestock interfaces is challenging. These interfaces are usually relatively small geographical areas where landscapes show large variation over small distances. Models of wildlife distribution based on… read more here.
