Abstract: More than 80% of animals have complex life cycles and undergo distinct changes in ecology and morphology during development. The strength and type of factors regulating each life-stage may differ as an organism may occupy… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jvs.70017
Abstract: The outcome of plant interactions depends on the physiological, morphological, and reproductive traits harbored by the interacting species. The outcomes of plant interactions depend on: (a) trait dissimilarity mechanisms, whereby species with similar traits compete… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s40168-024-02015-4
Abstract: Background Beta-diversity is a fundamental ecological metric for exploring dissimilarities between microbial communities. On the functional dimension, metaproteomics data can be used to quantify beta-diversity to understand how microbial community functional profiles vary under different… read more here.
