Rainfall homogenizes while fruiting increases diversity of spore deposition in Mediterranean conditions
(Elsevier, 2019-08-20)
There is a lack of knowledge regarding the main factors modulating fungal spore deposition in forest ecosystems. We have described the local spatio-temporal dynamics of fungal spore deposition along a ...
A chromosome-level genome assembly enables the identification of the follicule stimulating hormone receptor as the master sex determining gene in the flatfish Solea senegalensis
(Wiley, 2023-01-01)
Sex determination (SD) shows huge variation among fish and a high evolutionary rate, as illustrated by the Pleuronectiformes (flatfishes). This order is characterized by its adaptation to demersal life, ...
A polyphasic approach to the study of the genus Nitzschia (Bacillariophyta): three new planktonic species from the Adriatic Sea
(Wiley, 2020-10-21)
The paraphyletic diatom genus Nitzschia comprises over 1000 morphologically distinct pennate taxa, known from the benthos and plankton of freshwater, brackish and marine environments. The principal ...
Normalized abundance spectra of fish community reflect hydro-peaking on a Mediterranean large river
(Elsevier, 2018-10-19)
The European Water Framework Directive requires the integration of body size characters as an important part of fish-based bioassessment tools for freshwaters ecological status determination. The study ...
Lignin biosynthesis as a key mechanism to repress Polystigma amygdalinum, the causal agent of the red leaf blotch disease in almond
(Elsevier, 2019-03-23)
The red leaf blotch (RLB) of almond, caused by the fungus Polystigma amygdalinum, is considered as one of the most important leaf diseases of this fruit tree. Differential cultivar susceptibility to the ...
Determinants of the current and future distribution of the West Nile virus mosquito vector Culex pipiens in Spain
(Elsevier, 2020-06-23)
Changes in environmental conditions, whether related or not to human activities, are continuously modifying the geographic distribution of vectors, which in turn affects the dynamics and distribution ...
Clinical characteristics and management of neurocysticercosis patients: a retrospective assessment of case reports from Europe
(Oxford University Press, 2022-10-12)
Objectives: Neurocysticercosis (NCC) is a parasitic disease caused by the larval stage of the tapeworm Taenia
solium. NCC mainly occurs in Africa, Latin America and South-East Asia and can cause a ...
How Modelers Model: the Overlooked Social and Human Dimensions in Model Intercomparison Studies
(American Chemical Society, 2022-09-02)
There is a growing realization that the complexity of model ensemble studies depends not only on the models used but also on the experience and approach used by modelers to calibrate and validate results, ...
Most likely causes of infection and risk factors for tuberculosis in Spanish cattle herds
(Wiley, 2021-02-10)
Introduction: This study aims to assess the most likely causes of Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) breakdowns in Spanish cattle herds and to identify the main risk factors at farm‐level. Methods: Causes of bTB ...
Ensemble modelling of carbon fluxes in grasslands and croplands
(Elsevier, 2020-04-25)
Croplands and grasslands are agricultural systems that contribute to land–atmosphere exchanges of carbon (C). We evaluated and compared gross primary production (GPP), ecosystem respiration (RECO), net ...
