DOI: 10.1016/j.pecon.2021.03.008
Abstract: Abstract Species are disappearing worldwide with increasing rates through the time, especially in the tropics. The human-induced impacts have a pivotal role in the discussion about the cause of these extinctions events. Although researchers are… read more here.

Climatic affinities of Neotropical species of Capparaceae: an approach from ecological niche modelling and numerical ecology
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society"
DOI: 10.1093/botlinnean/boz092
Abstract: In the Neotropics, the distribution of Capparaceae has been historically associated with seasonally dry forest (NSDF), but recent taxonomic studies have questioned this assumption. Given the environmental co-occurrence of species and the need to understand… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/2041-210x.12832
Abstract: Ecological niche modelling (ENM) is used widely to aid in conservation planning and management, often focusing on rare species characterized by the biased observations associated with restricted geographic ranges, habitat specialization, small population size and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jbi.12748
Abstract: AimStudying the changes in species ranges during the last glaciation event is an important step towards the understanding of the observed patterns of intra-specific genetic variability. We focused on bumblebees, an interesting biological model to… read more here.

Historical biogeography and ecological niche modelling of the Asimina-Disepalum clade (Annonaceae): role of ecological differentiation in Neotropical-Asian disjunctions and diversification in Asia

DOI: 10.1186/s12862-017-1038-4
Abstract: BackgroundThe Asimina-Disepalum clade (Annonaceae subfam. Annonoideae tribe Annoneae) includes a major Neotropical-Asian biogeographical disjunction. We evaluate whether this disjunction can be explained by the Eocene boreotropics hypothesis, which relies on the existence of extensive boreotropical… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2022.968961
Abstract: The Tigray region is an ancient entry route for the domestic chickens into Africa. The oldest African chicken bones were found in this region at Mezber, a pre-Aksumite rural farming settlement. They were dated to… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/tropicalmed8040187
Abstract: Vector-borne diseases (VBDs) pose a major threat to human and animal health, with more than 80% of the global population being at risk of acquiring at least one major VBD. Being profoundly affected by the… read more here.
