Building upon a philosophy akin to Darwin’s naturalization conundrum, the diversity of fish in native communities can potentially yield contrasting outcomes for the establishment of non-native fish species. On the one hand, high native diversity may predict the success of non-native fishes, as the...
Several studies have linked responses to climate change to species traits, such as niche breadth [8,11,32,33,34,35,36,37,38]. Local species diversity often increases when the temperature rises mainly due to the arrival of ecological generalists that can respond quickly because they can utilize...
Human-driven climate change is already profoundly affecting species distributions, causing substantial range shifts and expansions in species that can keep pace with changes in climate and resources [2] or that can adapt to new resource conditions and exploit formerly unsuitable habitats [3,4]. ...
Mixed species forest stands occupying narrow ecological niches are especially sensitive to human induced forest change (where forest management is intensified for economic gain, or when traditional cultural management practices are abandoned or changed) [7,8]. In consequence, the disappearance of natural...

basidiomycetes, including a significantly greater number of genes associated with nutrition, sugar metabolism, stress tolerance capacity, and competitive abilities in Ascomycota to adapt to different conditions and become a dominant group in specific ecological niches, despite the Basidiomycota’s larger ...
(Figure 15). Within the first 12 h of the start of the experiment, the cells were seen to adapt to the change in the spatial conditions, showing a high potential for migration. The migration rate changes during the culture were similar to those observed in human and mouse NSCs. The rate...
