• Evidence of opposing fitness effects of parental heterozygosity and relatedness in a critically endangered marine turtle? 

  Phillips, Karl P.; Jorgensen, T. H.; Jolliffe, K. G.; Richardson, D. S. (Wiley, 2017-08-28)

  How individual genetic variability relates to fitness is important in understanding evolution and the processes affecting populations of conservation concern. Heterozygosity–fitness correlations (HFCs) have been widely ...
• Exceptionally preserved fossil assemblages through geologic time and space 

  Muscente, A. D.; Schiffbauer, James D.; Broce, Jesse; Laflamme, Marc; O'Donnell, Kenneth; Boag, Thomas H.; Meyer, Michael; Hawkins, Andrew D.; Huntley, John Warren; McNamara, Maria E.; MacKenzie, Lindsay A.; Stanley Jr, George D.; Hinman, Nancy W.; Hofmann, Michael H.; Xiao, Shuhai (Elsevier Ltd, 2017-04-26)

  Geologic deposits containing fossils with remains of non-biomineralized tissues (i.e. Konservat-Lagerstätten) provide key insights into ancient organisms and ecosystems. Such deposits are not evenly distributed through ...
• Extreme oxygen dynamics in shallow water of a fully marine Irish sea lough 

  Trowbridge, Cynthia D.; Davenport, John; Cottrell, Dylan M.; Harman, Luke; Plowman, Caitlin Q.; Little, Colin; McAllen, Rob (Elsevier Ltd, 2017-02-02)

  The benthos of Lough Hyne (Europe’s first marine reserve) in SW Ireland has changed dramatically in the past decade with declining invertebrate communities and proliferating ephemeral macroalgae. In summer 2011 and 2012, ...
• Myrteae phylogeny, calibration, biogeography and diversification patterns: increased understanding in the most species rich tribe of Myrtaceae 

  Vasconcelos, Thais N. C.; Proença, Carol E. B.; Ahmad, Berhaman; Aguilar, Daniel S.; Aguilar, Reinaldo; Amorim, Bruno S.; Campbell, Keron; Costa, Itayguara R.; De-Carvalho, Plauto S.; Faria, Jair E. Q.; Giaretta, Augusto; Kooij, Pepijn W.; Lima, Duane F.; Mazine, Fiorella F.; Peguero, Brigido; Prenner, Gerhard; Santos, Matheus F.; Soewarto, Julia; Wingler, Astrid; Lucas, Eve J. (Elsevier Ltd, 2017-01-06)

  Myrteae (c. 2500 species; 51 genera) is the largest tribe of Myrtaceae and an ecologically important groups of angiosperms in the Neotropics. Systematic relationships in Myrteae are complex, hindering conservation initiatives ...
• Baseline and stress-induced levels of corticosterone in male and female Afrotropical and European temperate stonechats during breeding 

  Apfelbeck, Beate; Helm, Barbara; Illera, Juan Carlos; Mortega, Kim G.; Smiddy, Patrick; Evans, Neil P. (BioMed Central, 2017-05-22)

  Latitudinal variation in avian life histories falls along a slow-fast pace of life continuum: tropical species produce small clutches, but have a high survival probability, while in temperate species the opposite pattern ...
