Genetic diversity landscapes in outcrossing and selfing Caenorhabditis nematodes

This study compares genetic diversity and recombination patterns between outcrossing and selfing Caenorhabditis nematodes, finding similar genomic patterns but differing in scale and effective population size history.

Fragment size and diversity of mulches affect their decomposition, nutrient dynamics, and soil microbiology

This study examines how mulch diversity and size affect decomposition, nutrient dynamics, and soil microbiology, finding that long residues maintain soil fertility without reducing crop yield.

Genotypic variability enhances the reproducibility of an ecological study

This study tests whether introducing genotypic variability improves reproducibility in ecological experiments across multiple labs, finding it increases consistency in controlled environments but not in variable ones.
