Core-periphery dynamics in a plant-pollinator network
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2020-07)
Mutualistic networks are highly dynamic, characterized by high temporal turnover of species and interactions. Yet, we have a limited understanding of how the internal structure of these networks and the roles species play ...
Sources and diffusive air-water exchange of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in an oligotrophic North-Patagonian lake
(Elsevier, 2020-10)
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are semivolatile organic compounds of environmental concern. This study aims to investigate the influence of local sources of anthropogenic PAHs and their air-water exchange fluxes ...
Self-Compatibility Not Associated with Morphological or Genetic Diversity Reduction in Oil-Rewarding Calceolaria Species
(MDPI Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2020-10)
One of the most common evolutionary transitions in angiosperms is the reproductive change from outcrossing to selfing, commonly associated with changes in floral biology and genetic diversity. Here, we aim to test whether ...
Development and analytical validation of real-time PCR for the detection ofStreptococcus agalactiaein pregnant women
(BioMed Central Ltd., 2020-06)
Background Group BStreptococcus(GBS) is the leading cause of invasive neonatal infection. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the analytical validation of qualitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) as a means ...
Different Pollinators' Functional Traits Can Explain Pollen Load in Two Solitary Oil-Collecting Bees
(MDPI Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2020-10)
Pollinators' features, especially those with a functional role during the pollination process, have been shown to be a good predictor of pollen load for some bee species, but little is known about solitary bees. Here, I ...
Pollinator declines and the stability of plant-pollinator networks
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2020-04)
Population declines of pollinators constitute a major concern for the fate of biodiversity and associated ecosystem services in a context of global change. Massive declines of pollinator populations driven by habitat loss, ...
Environment and COVID-19: Pollutants, impacts, dissemination, management and recommendations for facing future epidemic threats
(Elsevier, 2020-12)
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a global pandemic. Its relationship with environmental factors is an issue that has attracted the attention of scientists and governments. This article aims to deal with a ...
