- On the application of statistical physics to evolutionary biology. (2009, background): “There has been considerable recent discussion of the evolution of redundancy (e.g. de Visser et al., 2003; Hansen, 2006; Wagner, 2005), stimulated by the surprising discovery that most genes in eukaryotes can be deleted without obvious ill-effects.”
- The decline of the bumble bees and cuckoo bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae: Bombini) of Western and Central Europe (2007, background): “…and Psithyrus spp., respectively) have been receiv- ing increasing attention, and a marked decrease in numbers has been noted worldwide (Williams, 1982, 1988, 1989, 2005; Corbet et al., 1991; Monsevičius, 1995; Allen-Wardell et al., 1998; Kearns et al., 1998; Goulson, 2003; Goulson et al., 2005).”
- Improved detection of an alien invasive species through environmental DNA barcoding: the example of the American bullfrog Lithobates catesbeianus (2012, background): “Alien invasive species (AIS) constitute one of major causes of biodiversity loss and global homogenization (Vitousek et al. 1997; Ficetola, Thuiller&Miaud 2007b; Ehrenfeld 2010; Pyšek & Richardson 2010).”
- Framework and guidelines for implementing the proposed IUCN Environmental Impact Classification for Alien Taxa (EICAT) (2015, background): “For example, alien taxa have been shown to cause significant changes in native species extinction probabilities, genetic composition of native populations, behaviour patterns, species richness and abundance, phylogenetic and taxonomic diversity, trophic networks, ecosystem productivity, nutrient cyc”
- Pitfalls in supermatrix phylogenomics (2017, neutral): “In the mid-2000s, multigene phylogenetics therefore turned into phylogenomics (Delsuc et al. 2005; Philippe et al. 2005a).”
- Rarefaction and extrapolation of phylogenetic diversity (2015, methodology): “Here we apply the procedures proposed in Chao et al. (2014) to compare standardized samples between the two sites as follows:”
- Evaluating modularity in morphometric data: challenges with the RV coefficient and a new test measure (2016, neutral): “By contrast, other methods evaluate covariance patterns across subsets of traits defined a priori to determine whether the observed covariance patterns correspond to what is expected under a hypothesis of modular structure, or of integration among modules (Bookstein et al. 2003; Klingenberg 2008; fo”
- Coral disease following massive bleaching in 2005 causes 60% decline in coral cover on reefs in the US Virgin Islands (2009, background): “The number of described coral diseases and the number of documented cases have increased exponentially since the first description (Harvell et al. 2004; Lafferty et al. 2004).”
- Phylogenetic signal in plant pathogen–host range (2007, background): “Indeed, recent work has shown a strong phylogenetic signal in host range of herbivorous insects in tropical rain forest (16, 17), and there is qualitative support for such a signal for fungal pathogens (7).”
- Predicting species distribution at range margins: testing the effects of study area extent, resolution and threshold selection in the Sahara–Sahel transition zone (2014, background): “In terrestrial systems, climate dominates distributions at the global scale, but at regional and local scales, topography produces finer-scale variations in climate that influence species distribution (Elith & Leathwick, 2009; Wiens & Bachelet, 2009).”
- Robust sound event detection in bioacoustic sensor networks (2019, neutral): “human-caused) environmental pressures [20, 21].”
- Predicting evolution from the shape of genealogical trees (2014, methodology): “Our fitness model resembles the well-known infinitesimal model of Quantitative Genetics (Falconer and Mackay, 1996) in the sense that many small effect mutations give rise to a bell-shaped fitness distribution on which selection acts (Neher, 2013).”
