Angiosperm speciation cools down in the tropics.
Recent evidence has questioned whether the Latitudinal Diversity Gradient (LDG), whereby species richness increases towards the Equator, results in higher rates of speciation in the tropics. Allowing for time heterogeneity in...
Global topographic uplift has elevated speciation in mammals and birds over the last 3 million years
Abstract: Topographic change shapes the evolution of biodiversity by influencing both habitat connectivity and habitat diversity as well as abiotic factors like climate. However, its role in creating global biodiversity...
Integrating demography and distribution modeling for the iconic Leontopodium alpinum Colm. in the Romanian Carpathians
Abstract: Both climate change and human exploitation are major threats to plant life in mountain environments. One species that may be particularly sensitive to both of these stressors is the iconic alpine flower edelweiss...

Mussels can both outweigh and interact with the effects of terrestrial to freshwater resource subsidies on littoral benthic communities.
Litterfall is an important resource subsidy for lake ecosystems that primarily accumulates in littoral zones. Bivalves are abundant within littoral zones and may modify the effects of terrestrial resource subsidies through...
Macroevolutionary consequences of mast seeding.
Esther E Dale, Jessie J Foest, Andrew Hacket-Pain, Michał Bogdziewicz, Andrew Tanentzap
Aug 25, 2021
Masting characterizes large, intermittent and highly synchronous seeding events among individual plants and is found throughout the plant Tree of Life (ToL). Although masting can increase plant fitness, little is known about...
Does Evolutionary History Correlate with Contemporary Extinction Risk by Influencing Range Size Dynamics?
Extinction threatens many species yet is predicted by few factors across the plant tree of life (ToL). Taxon age is one factor that may associate with extinction if occupancy of geographic and adaptive zones varies with time...
Feasting on terrestrial organic matter
Boreal lakes are major components of the global carbon cycle, partly because of sediment-bound heterotrophic microorganisms that decompose within-lake and terrestrially derived organic matter (t-OM). The ability for sediment...

Aged soils contribute little to contemporary carbon cycling downstream of thawing permafrost peatlands.
Andrew J Tanentzap, Katheryn Burd, McKenzie Kuhn, Cristian Estop-Aragonés, Suzanne E Tank, David Olefeldt
Jun 11, 2021
Vast stores of millennial-aged soil carbon (MSC) in permafrost peatlands risk leaching into the contemporary carbon cycle after thaw caused by climate warming or increased wildfire activity. Here we tracked the export and...
Lectin pathway effector enzyme mannan-binding lectin-associated serine protease-2 can activate native complement C3 in absence of C4 and/or C2.

All 3 activation pathways of complement-the classic pathway (CP), the alternative pathway, and the lectin pathway (LP)- converge into a common central event: the cleavage and activation of the abundant third complement...

This book is a revised and extended version of the six Trevelyan Lectures that Conrad Russell delivered at Cambridge University in the Lent Term of 1995. Between then and his death in October 2004, Russell developed the lectures...
Climate warming has direct and indirect effects on microbes associated with carbon cycling in northern lakes
Johanna C. Winder, Lucas P. P. Braga, McKenzie A. Kuhn, Lauren M. Thompson, David Olefeldt, Andrew J. Tanentzap
Mar 15, 2023
Northern lakes disproportionately influence the global carbon cycle, and may do so more in the future depending on how their microbial communities respond to climate warming. Microbial communities can change because of the...
