Subspecies divergence, hybridisation and the spatial environment shape phylosymbiosis in the microbiome of house mice

The paper examines how host subspecies divergence, hybridisation, and spatial environment influence microbiome composition in house mice, finding that host genetics shape microbiome similarity more than hybridisation.

Resource asynchrony and landscape homogenization as drivers of virulence evolution

This study uses a model to show that landscape homogenization increases pathogen virulence, while fragmentation favors less virulent strains, with high virulence strains dominating at high host density.

Global disparity of research allocation and the Aichi biodiversity conservation targets

The paper assesses global research allocation on biodiversity, showing it often misses key conservation areas and is driven by country income, biome, mammal richness, and accessibility.

Modelling Eurasian lynx populations in Western Europe: What prospects for the next 50 years?

The paper models Eurasian lynx populations in Western Europe to predict their persistence over 50 years, finding likely large-scale survival despite challenges.

Halfway to self-sustainability: Reintroduced migratory European Northern Bald Ibises (Geronticus eremita) still need management interventions for population viability

This study analyzes the survival and reproduction of reintroduced Northern Bald Ibises over 12 years and uses population viability analysis to assess their long-term survival prospects.

Mosquito community composition shapes virus prevalence patterns along anthropogenic disturbance gradients

The paper examines how mosquito community composition influences virus prevalence along disturbance gradients, finding that increased host abundance, not infection rates, drives virus emergence in disturbed habitats.

Keeping the kids at home can limit the persistence of contagious pathogens in social animals

The paper models how offspring with restricted between-group contact reduces epidemic persistence in social animals by increasing fade-out probability, especially for fast-spreading diseases.
