Inferring eco-evolutionary feedbacks from time series data using neural ordinary differential equations by Bonnaffé, W

“…We develop a mathematical framework, neural ordinary differential equations (NODEs), to quantify feedbacks from time series data of the evolutionary, ecological, and environmental variables in the system. …”

Gene response profiles for <it>Daphnia pulex </it>exposed to the environmental stressor cadmium reveals novel crustacean metallothioneins by Davey Jennifer C, Colbourne John K, Shaw Joseph R, Glaholt Stephen P, Hampton Thomas H, Chen Celia Y, Folt Carol L, Hamilton Joshua W

“…</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>The genomic information obtained from this study represents an important first step in characterizing microarray patterns that may be diagnostic to specific environmental contaminants and give insights into their toxicological mechanisms, while also providing a practical tool for evolutionary, ecological, and toxicological functional gene discovery studies. …”

The dynamics of evolutionary rescue from a novel pathogen threat in a host metapopulation by Jing Jiao, Nina Fefferman

“…When hosts also live in metapopulations, there may be critical differences in the dynamics that emerge from the synergy among evolutionary, ecological, and epidemiological factors. Here we used a Susceptible-Infected-Recovery model to explore how spatial and temporal ecological factors may drive the epidemiological and rapid-evolutionary dynamics of host metapopulations. …”

Two Species with an Unusual Combination of Traits Dominate Responses of British Grasshoppers and Crickets to Environmental Change. by Björn C Beckmann, Bethan V Purse, David B Roy, Helen E Roy, Peter G Sutton, Chris D Thomas

“…Previous studies on these two species emphasised wing-length dimorphism as the key to their success, resulting in a high phenotypic plasticity of dispersal and evolutionary-ecological feedback at their expanding range margins. …”

Modelling optimal strategies for novel genetics-based pest management by Alphey, N

“…I examine the evolutionary, ecological, and economic cost and benefit aspects of these novel interventions. …”

Do sexually transmitted infections exacerbate negative premenstrual symptoms? Insights from digital health by Alvergne, A, Marija Vlajic Wheeler, M, Vedrana Högqvist Tabor, V

“…Here we test the evolutionary ecological hypothesis that some negative premenstrual symptoms may be exacerbated by the presence of chronic sexually transmitted infections (STIs). …”

THE IMPERATIVES OF INCLUSIVE ECONOMIC GROWTH THEORY by O. Chaikin, T. Usiuk

“…The necessity of national inclusive development model implementation that would take into account the evolutionary ecological needs of the population and ensure the sustainability and competitiveness of the domestic economy, uniform population welfare increase has been shown. …”

Pre-migratory flights in migrant songbirds: the ecological and evolutionary importance of understudied exploratory movements by Zephyr Züst, Andrey Mukhin, Philip D. Taylor, Heiko Schmaljohann

“…We provide the first definition for this behaviour, summarise the current knowledge of this cryptic movement, and hypothesise what evolutionary/ecological advantages conducting it may confer to the individuals that undertake it. …”

The first mitogenomic phylogenetic framework of Dorcus sensu lato (Coleoptera: Lucanidae), with an emphasis on generic taxonomy in Eastern Asia by Muhammad Jafir, Liyang Zhou, Yongjing Chen, Xia Wan

“…The generic relationship would facilitate the systematics of Dorcus stag beetles and thus be useful for exploring their evolutionary, ecological, and conservation aspects.…”

A second horizon scan of biogeography: Golden Ages, Midas touches, and the Red Queen by Michael N Dawson, Jan C. Axmacher, Carl Beierkuhnlein, Jessica L. Blois, Bethany A. Bradley, Anna F. Cord, Jürgen Dengler, Kate S. He, Lawrence R. Heaney, Roland Jansson, Miguel D. Mahecha, Corinne Myers, David Nogués-Bravo, Anna Papadopoulou, Björn Reu, Francisco Rodríguez-Sánchez, Manuel J. Steinbauer, Alycia Stigall, Mao-Ning Tuanmu, Daniel G. Gavin

“…That core is being enriched by large datasets (e.g. of environmental variables, ‘omics’, species’ occurrences, traits) and new techniques (e.g., advances in genetics, remote sensing, modeling) that promote studies with increasing detail and at increasing scales; disciplinary breadth is being diversified (e.g., by developments in paleobiogeography and microbiology) and integrated through the transfer of approaches and sharing of theory (e.g., spatial modeling and phylogenetics in evolutionary–ecological contexts). Yet some subdisciplines remain on the fringe (e.g., marine biogeography, deep-time paleobiogeography), new horizons and new theory may be overshadowed by popular techniques (e.g., species distribution modelling), and hypotheses, data, and analyses may each be wanting. …”

Differential responses of Bactrocera dorsalis and its parasitoids to headspaces of different varieties of tree-attached mango fruits and the associated chemical profiles by Raphael Njurai Miano, Raphael Njurai Miano, Samira A. Mohamed, Xavier Cheseto, Shepard Ndlela, Tibebe Dejene Biasazin, Abdullahi Ahmed Yusuf, Egmont Rohwer, Teun Dekker

“…A follow-up study can reveal whether there is a convergence in olfactomes which is significant when developing baits that selectively attract the fruit fly and not its natural enemies and fill the knowledge gap from an evolutionary ecological perspective.…”

Four problems in nonlinear Earth system dynamics by Arnscheidt, Constantin W.

“…Using this observation, the existing theory of “evolutionary rescue”, mathematics surprisingly like the global glaciation problem, and agent-based simulations, I argue that rate-induced collapse in response to environmental change may be a common feature of evolutionary-ecological systems on a vast range of scales. …”
