Calculating autoecological data (optima and tolerance range) for multiple species with the ‘optimos.prime’ R package
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-02)
The calculation of autoecological data, such as optima and tolerance ranges to environmental variables, can be useful to establish the distribution and abundance of the species. These calculations, although mathematically ...
Tolerance landscapes in thermal ecology
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2014)
Summary: How thermal tolerance estimated in the laboratory can be extrapolated to natural settings remains a contentious subject. Here, we argue that the general premise that a single temperature can accurately describe ...
How are endemic and widely distributed bromeliads responding to warming temperatures? A case study in a Brazilian hotspot
(Elsevier B.V., 2018-01-01)
The increase in mean global temperature is causing extensive changes in ecosystems. However, little is yet known about the heat tolerance of neotropical plant species. Here, we investigate heat tolerance variation in both ...
Genome sequence of the acid-tolerant strain Rhizobium sp. LPU83
(Elsevier Science, 2014-03)
Rhizobia are important members of the soil microbiome since they enter into nitrogen-fixing symbiosis with different legume host plants. Rhizobium sp. LPU83 is an acid-tolerant Rhizobium strain featuring a broad-host-range. ...
The interplay between thermal tolerance and life history is associated with the biogeography of Drosophila species
(2010)
Background: Physiological tolerances are important determinants of the biogeography of species. Questions: What is the relationship between thermal tolerance and the biogeographic origin of species? What are the relationships ...
Climatic niche at physiological and macroecological scales: the thermal tolerance–geographical range interface and niche dimensionality
(Oxford, 2014-04)
Under the Hutchinsonian concept of the realized niche, biotic interactions and dispersal limitation may prevent species from fully occupying areas that they could tolerate physiologically. This can hamper the translation ...
Trading heat and hops for water: Dehydration effects on locomotor performance, thermal limits, and thermoregulatory behavior of a terrestrial toad
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017-11-01)
Due to their highly permeable skin and ectothermy, terrestrial amphibians are challenged by compromises between water balance and body temperature regulation. The way in which such compromises are accommodated, under a ...
Geographical distribution and estimation of the climatic tolerance ranges of Poa scaberula (Poaceae) in South America
This paper analyzes the potential distribution of Poa scaberula (Poaceae) in South America. The study area includes the Andes and the Sierras Pampeanas of Central Argentina. Based on records of occurrence and environmental ...
