Genetic and environmental parameters for racing time at different distances in Brazilian Thoroughbreds
(Blackwell Publishing, 2005-12-01)
The aim of the present study was to investigate genetic parameters for racing time in Thoroughbred horses racing at distances between 1000 and 1600 m subdivided into 100-m intervals. The data provided by TURFETOTAL Ltda ...

Fragility of nocturnal interactions: Pollination intensity increases with distance to light pollution sources but decreases with increasing environmental suitability
(Elsevier, 2022-01)
Light pollution represents a widespread long-established human-made disturbance and an important threat to nocturnal pollination. Distance from the niche centroid where optimal environmental conditions join may be related ...
Dispersal traits drive the phylogenetic distance decay of similarity in Neotropical stream metacommunities
(2015-11-01)
Aim: The drivers of phylogenetic beta diversity include both local processes (e.g. environmental filtering) and regional processes (e.g. dispersal limitation). The role of environmental filtering can be investigated more ...
Variation in coastal Antarctic microbial community composition at sub-mesoscale: spatial distance or environmental filtering?
(2016)
Spatial environmental heterogeneity influences diversity of organisms at different scales. Environmental filtering suggests that local environmental conditions provide habitat-specific scenarios for niche requirements, ...
Bird diversity along a gradient of fragmented habitats of the Cerrado
(Acad Brasileira De Ciencias, 2018-03-01)
Understanding the factors that affect biodiversity is of central interest to ecology, and essential to species conservation and ecosystems management. We sampled bird communities in 17 forest fragments in the Cerrado biome, ...
Auditory environmental context affects visual distance perception
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017-08)
In this article, we show that visual distance perception (VDP) is influenced by the auditory environmental context through reverberation-related cues. We performed two VDP experiments in two dark rooms with extremely ...
Environmental conditions drive vocal variation in the scaled dove (Columbina squammata)
(2022-01-01)
Variations in communication systems profoundly affect bird evolution. Vocalizations mediate species recognition and therefore intra-specific variation may lead to reproductive isolation, ultimately resulting in speciation. ...
Conflicting selection in the course of adaptive diversification |b the interplay between mutualism and intraspecific competition
(Chicago, 2014-03)
We describe a novel dissimilarity framework to analyze spatial patterns of species diversity and illustrate it with alien plant invasions in Northern Portugal. We used this framework to test the hypothesis that patterns ...
Environment and dispersal paths override life strategies and residence time in determining regional patterns of invasion by alien plants
(Elsevier B.V., 2014-01-01)
We describe a novel dissimilarity framework to analyze spatial patterns of species diversity and illustrate it with alien plant invasions in Northern Portugal. We used this framework to test the hypothesis that patterns ...
