Fungi are actually in their own taxonomic kingdom, meaning they've got something going on that's very different from every other type of organism on Earth. The immediately obvious thing that sets fungi apart from everyone else is that they reproduce exclusively via spores, little bits of DNA ...
What adaptations do poison dart frogs have? What is the difference between gymnosperms and angiosperms? How do tree ferns reproduce? What are some adaptations of flowers to help attract pollinators? How are conifers and flowering plants alike?
Ok, there’sa lotto unpack here, and in the several articles which follow this one I’m going to go through most of the things I think are relevant to the TMDD claim. We’ll start by looking at Don Prothero’s argument that the taxonomic history of fossil mammals provides support for...
taxonomic or functional group, we constructed a phylogenetic hypothesis separately for each group (FigsS3–S7). For small, large and non-flying mammals (72 spp), snakes (66 spp), lizards (35 spp) and frogs (98 spp), the phylogenetic relationships were obtained with the R package “rotl”...
Placental mammals occupy a larger morphospace and are taxonomically more diverse than marsupials by an order of magnitude, as shown by quantitative and phy
(1) ECM species occur in darker habitats owing to their symbiosis with tree species that form forests; and because forests are darker and thus colder than open fields or grasslands, at least during the daytime, ECM species might have evolved darker mushroom phenotypes to enhance warming by ...
This review examines and summarises a variety of factors that either are known (or have the potential) to influence an insect’s chemical composition and its nutritive value, such as a species’ taxonomic position or ecotype, thereby enhancing or reducing its acceptability as a food item for hu...
species pool for LABS suggests that the southwestern Amazonian lowlands harbor at least 25% fewer species of snakes relative to the western equatorial Amazon, a diversity reduction that is consistent with patterns observed in several other taxonomic groups. We discuss potential causes of this western ...
