The afro-alpine region comprises the high mountains of Ethiopia and tropical East Africa, which represent biological ‘sky islands’ with high level of endemism. However, some primarily arctic-alpine plants also occur in the afro-alpine mountains. It has
This observation undercuts claims for modern human migrations out of Africa and beyond the Levant before 50,000 BP. It also has critical but not yet conclusive implications for arguments about a human role in the extinction of Sahul megafauna....

Here, we test to what extent continental colonization and historical dispersal routes can explain present-day species richness of agamid lizards (subfamily Agaminae) in Africa relative to current climate, topography, and paloeclimatic changes. We first compiled a comprehensive database of species ...
However, the hypothesis that the Arabian founders derived from a successful landing of a sweepstake-rafting event across the southern Red Sea, difficult to validate or falsify as it is, cannot be categorically rejected. Importation and release of individuals from Africa in the peninsula is thus ...

Macaronesicae) of the Canary Islands. It was clear that this group began the speciation process in...
discussion of spatial and temporal patterning in island colonization at the global scale has hardly advanced since—indeed their 1987 paper proved to be not only the first global synthesis of its kind but also, to date, the last. Our principal aim is to revisit the global problematic that Keeg...
Antibiotic treatment disrupts the native intestinal microbiota and favours infection with and the proliferation of antibiotic-resistant intestinal pathogens. Clinically important antibiotic-resistant pathogens include vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus spp., various Enterobacteriaceae and Clostridium difficile. The intes...
