Earlier this year, scientists warned that one in six animal species could go extinct (灭绝的) due to climate change. Could the same thing happen to our crops and other foodstuffs too? It's clear that farmers in many parts of the world are going to find things harder in the coming decade...

This may seem counter-intuitive given the expected high functional redundancy in microbial communities (Rousk et al., 2009): with many species sharing similar functions, rare species should not be necessary for maintaining function. Species that are considered functionally non-relevant under a given ...

Well, many fish species of freshwater fish hate salt. Cory, loaches, livebearers and koi, for example, are all well-known for their salt intolerance – the amount of salt needed to kill Ich can also kill these fish.In fact, long-term use of salt can have a negative impact on fish ...
The sole exception to this rigorous control is the naming of physical entities that constitute the membership of allspeciesandsub-speciesof actual viruses (i.e. those spatio-temporal entities with causal properties) when they are encountered in the field and laboratory. And this confusion which is...
It covers the whole UK, explicitly includes birds kept for ‘restocking game birds’, and demands detailed numerical and spatial data about how many birds of what species are held where and for what purposes. It asks for separate numbers of birds of each species that are held for breeding ...
