Habitat availability alters the relative risk of a bovine tuberculosis breakdown in the aftermath of a commercial forest clearfell disturbance

<p><span></span></p> <p>1. Human modification of landscapes and associated disturbances may facilitate the emergence and spread of zoonotic diseases. Policy-makers need better understanding of the link between anthropogenic disturbances and wildlife disease hosts at the interface of human society and the natural environment, e.g. agriculture, forestry and aquaculture. Empirical research is strongly needed for the control of novel zoonoses which might emerge, as well as the management of existing zoonoses with significant economic repercussions such as bovine tuberculosis (bTB).</p> <p>2. We aimed to examine the link between ecological disturbance and relative bTB risk using Ireland as a case study. We analysed clearfell forestry operations and assessed bTB breakdowns within cattle farms across different spatio-temporal scales over multiple years, examining how ecological conditions may modulate this relationship using conditional logistic regression models.</p> <p>3. We found a significant effect of the interaction between the extent of clearfell forestry removed and the extent of natural grassland and mixed forestry present on relative bTB risk. This interaction was dynamic, leading to an increase or decrease of the relative bTB risk depending on where (between 2 and 6 km from the farm) and when (between 0 and 36 months prior to the bTB outbreak) the clearfell operations occurred.</p> <p>4. Our study provides empirical evidence of the link between mechanised forestry operations and fluctuating relative bTB risk in cattle farms, although the mechanism behind it is yet to be elucidated. Given our data, we hypothesise that wildlife hosts may abandon the area subjected to clearfell when disturbance is highest (during active operations and shortly afterward) but are subsequently attracted back to the site as they regenerate, potentially affecting the contact rates with livestock and thus, relative bTB risk.</p> <p>5. Our analysis demonstrates that landscape modification is correlated with a change in relative bTB risk that is dynamic in time and space, allowing managers to understand the risk in landscape modification and inform policy accordingly. Landscape-level studies are necessary to unveil subtle ecological processes, shifting research and management efforts away from cattle herd-centric and toward macroecological surveillance of wildlife hosts and longitudinal assessment of bTB risk.</p>

Traits and ecological space availability predict avian densities at the country scale of the Czech Republic

<p><span>Species geographical distributions and abundances are a central focus of current ecological research. Although multiple studies have been conducted on their elucidation, some important information are still missing. One of them is the knowledge of ecological traits of species responsible for the population density variations across geographical (i.e. total physical area) and ecological spaces (i.e. suitable habitat area). This is crucial for understanding how ecological specialisation shapes the geographical distribution of species, and provides key knowledge about the sensitivity of species to current environmental challenges. Here, we precisely describe habitat availability for individual species using fine-scale field data collected across the entire Czech Republic. In the next step, we used this information to test the relationships between bird traits and country-scale estimates of population densities assessed in both geographical and ecological space.</span><span> We did not find any effect of habitat specialisation on avian density in geographical space. But when we recalculated densities for ecological space available, we found a positive correlation with habitat specialization. Specialists occur at higher densities</span><span> in suitable habitats. Moreover, birds with arboreal and </span><span>hole-nesting strategies showed higher densities in both geographical and ecological spaces. However, we found no significant </span><span>effects of morphological (body mass, structural body size) and reproductive (position along </span><span>the slow-fast life-history continuum)</span><span> traits on avian densities in either geographical or ecological space. Our findings suggest that ecological space availability is a strong determinant of avian abundance and highlight the importance of precise knowledge of species-specific habitat requirements. Revival of this classical but challenging ecological topic of habitat-specific densities is needed for both proper understanding of pure ecological issues and practical steps in </span><span>the conservation of nature.</span></p>

Intensity and mode of Lindera melissifolia reproduction are affected by flooding and light availability

<p>A water impoundment facility was used to control the duration of soil flooding (0, 45, or 90 days) and shade houses were used to control light availability (high = 72 %, intermediate = 33 %, or low = 2 % of ambient light) received by L. melissifolia established on native soil of the MAV. A completely randomized, split-plot design was used to evaluate the effects of soil flooding and light availability on L. melissifolia reproductive intensity and mode. Analyses were conducted on plot means using PROC GLIMMIX with an adjustment in the error term for the whole-plot factor (SAS 9.4, SAS Institute, Inc., Cary, North Carolina, USA). PROC UNIVARIATE was used to test data normality for each response variable, and residual errors were normalized with Box-Cox, natural log, or square root transformations where appropriate prior to the PROC GLIMMIX analyses. Significance was accepted at ∝ = 0.05, and we used the least significant difference (LSD) test to separate significant treatment effect means. When a soil flooding and light availability interaction was significant, separation of soil flooding level means was conducted by light availability level, and separation of light availability level means was conducted by soil flooding level.</p>

Data from: Nitrogen availability and plant-plant interactions drive leaf silicon concentration in wheat genotypes

<p><span>Estimating plasticity of leaf silicon (Si) in response to abiotic and biotic factors underpins our comprehension of plant defences and stress resistance in natural and agroecosystems. However, how nitrogen (N) addition and intraspecific plant-plant interactions affect Si accumulation remains unclear. </span></p> <p><span>We grew 19 durum wheat genotypes (<em>Triticum turgidum</em> ssp. durum) in pots, either alone, or in intra- or intergenotypic cultures of two individuals, and with or without N. </span><span>Aboveground biomass, plant height and leaf [Si] were quantified at the beginning of the flowering stage.</span></p> <p><span>Nitrogen addition</span> <span>decreased leaf</span> <span>[Si] for most genotypes, proportionally to the biomass increase. Si plasticity to plant-plant interactions varied significantly among genotypes, with both increases and decreases in </span><span>leaf</span> <span>[Si] when mixed with a neighbour, regardless of the mixture type (intra-/intergenotype). Besides, increased leaf [Si] in response to plant-plant interactions was associated with increased plant height.</span></p> <p><span>Our results suggest the occurrence of </span><span>both facilitation and competition for Si uptake from the rhizosphere in wheat mixtures. Future research should identify which leaf and root traits characterize facilitating neighbours for Si acquisition. We also show that Si could be involved in height gain in response to intraspecific competition, possibly for increasing light capture. This important finding opens up new research directions on Si and plant-plant interactions in both natural ecosystems and agroecosystems. More generally,</span> <span>o</span><span>ur results stress the need to explore leaf Si plasticity in responses to both abiotic and biotic factors to understand plant stress resistance.</span></p>

Covariations and tradeoffs of phosphorus (P) acquisition strategies in dioecious Populus euphratica as affected by soil water availability

<p>1. Dioecious species may be particularly vulnerable to climate change because they often exhibit skewed sex ratios that are reinforced by the physiological and biological specialization of each sex to specific microhabitats. Yet, it is unclear how differences in functional traits between female and male plants lead to sex-specific responses to drought and whether these responses are associated with phosphorus (P) acquisition diverge or converge.</p> <p>2. Here, we measured the morphological and physiological traits of roots, and the functional microorganisms related to P acquisition in <em>Populus euphratica</em> females and males in the rhizosphere under different water availability.</p> <p>3. The specific root length of females was greater than that of males, regardless of soil water availability. Therefore, the P concentration of females was significantly higher than that of males under well-watered conditions. In contrast, the physiological adjustment to drought showed distinct sexual patterns: males significantly increased the foliar manganese concentration and maintained higher acid phosphatase activities in the rhizosphere. Moreover, the arbuscular mycorrhizal hyphal biomass was reduced less in males than in females under water deficiency. Soil water shortage also decreased the α diversity of phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB) and changed the co-occurrence network in the rhizosphere of females, but it had little effect on males. Therefore, the favorable physiological processes and effective maintenance of functional microbial homeostasis in the rhizosphere were the reasons that enabled males to reduce P loss in leaves under water deficiency.</p> <p>4. Our study indicated that, within<em> P. euphratica</em> populations, covariations and tradeoffs simultaneously occurred among the three groups (root morphology, physiology, and functional microorganisms) of functional traits evaluated. More generally, the assessment of variations in sex-specific P acquisition strategies may help to understand the causes of sex ratio bias and how <em>P. euphratica</em> males and females mitigate resource shortage.</p>

Portable ultrasound technologies for estimating gestational age in pregnant women: A scoping review and analysis of commercially available models

<p><strong>Objectives</strong>: To identify all available studies assessing the use of portable ultrasound devices for pregnant women, with the specific aim of finding evidence for devices used to determine gestational age and their validity when compared to conventional ultrasound machines. We also wanted to determine what portable ultrasound models are commercially available for obstetric use. </p> <p><strong>Design</strong>: Systematic scoping review</p> <p><strong>Primary and secondary outcome measures:</strong> Extracted variables included study design, population, method of ultrasound measurement, devices used and whether studies formally validated accuracy against conventional ultrasound</p> <p><strong>Results</strong>: We searched four databases – Medline, Embase, CINAHL, and Maternal and Infant Care. In total, 56 studies from 34 countries were identified; most were observational studies. Across all studies, 27 different portable ultrasound models (from 17 manufacturers) were evaluated. Twenty-one studies assessed use of portable ultrasound for evaluating fetal characteristics or estimating gestational age, and 10 of these were formal validation studies. In total, six portable devices have been validated for gestational age estimation against a conventional ultrasound comparator. The web searches identified 102 portable devices (21 manufacturers). These were a mix of handheld devices that connected to a phone or computer, or laptop-style portable ultrasound devices. Prices ranged from $1,190 to $30,000 USD and weight ranged from 0.9 kg to 13.0 kg.</p> <p><strong>Conclusion</strong>: While the number of commercially available portable ultrasound devices continues to grow, there remains a lack of peer-reviewed, quality evidence demonstrating their accuracy and validity when compared to conventional ultrasound machines. This review identified some models that may be useful in gestational age estimation in low-resource settings, but more research is required to help implement the technology at scale.</p>
