(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)Spermatozoa exhibit remarkable variability in size, shape, and performance. Our understanding of the molecular basis of this variation, however, is limited, especially in avian taxa. The zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata) ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)Abstract The availability of phylogenetic data has greatly expanded in recent years. As a result, a new era in phylogenetic analysis is dawning—one in which the methods we use to analyse and assess our data are the bottleneck ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)The global distribution of vegetation is largely determined by climatic conditions and feeds back into the climate system. To predict future vegetation changes in response to climate change, it is crucial to identify and ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)Abstract The new mineral, illoqite-(Ce), with the ideal formula Na 2 NaBaCeZnSi 6 O 17 , has been discovered in the Taseq Slope, Ilímaussaq Alkaline Complex, Southern Greenland. Illoqite-(Ce) occurs in a hyperalkaline ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)The distributions of species are not only determined by where they can survive – they must also be able to reproduce. Although immigrant inviability is a well‐established concept, the fact that immigrants also need to be ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)Constructed stormwater ponds mitigate runoff volumes and pollution, and provide other ecosystem services, such as supporting biodiversity, but these services attracted relatively less attention. The impacts of the pollution ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)Because DNA degrades over time, extracting DNA of sufficient quality for sequencing is presumed to be more difficult from older than younger herbarium specimens. Although massive parallel sequencing techniques have clear ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)Global declines in biodiversity highlight the need to effectively monitor the density and distribution of threatened species. In recent years, molecular survey methods detecting DNA released by target-species into their ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)Vegetation is an important component in global ecosystems, affecting the physical, hydrological and biogeochemical properties of the land surface. Accordingly, the way vegetation is parameterized strongly influences ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)As temperatures decrease in autumn, vegetation of temperate and boreal ecosystems increases its tolerance to freezing. This process, known as hardening, results in a set of physiological changes at the molecular level that ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)Morphologically similar species, that is cryptic species, may be similar or quasi-similar owing to the deceleration of morphological evolution and stasis. While the factors underlying the deceleration of morphological ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2012)Recent multilocus studies of congeneric birds have shown a pattern of elevated interspecific divergence on the Z chromosome compared to the autosomes. In contrast, intraspecifically, birds exhibit less polymorphism on the ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)Increasing amount of anthropogenic litter in the marine environment has provided an enormous number of substrates for a wide range of marine organisms, thus serving as a potential vector for the transport of fouling ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)To monitor the changes in the landscape, and to relate these to ecological processes, we need robust and reproducible methods for quantifying the changes in landscape patterns. The main aim of this study is to present, ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)Body size can have profound impacts on survival, movement, and reproductive schedules shaping individual fitness, making growth a central process in ecological and evolutionary dynamics. Realized growth is the result of a ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)Understanding the effects of interspecific competition on genetic diversity will deepen our knowledge on species evolution. In the case of Calopteryx splendens and C. virgo, sympatric damselfly species, interspecific ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)In-situ weathered bedrock, saprolite, is locally found in Scandinavia, where it is commonly thought to represent pre-Pleistocene weathering possibly associated with landscape formation. The age of weathering, however, ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)Recent studies have demonstrated that preen oil acts to reduce or eliminate feather‐associated bacteria. The mechanisms underlying this antibacterial activity, however, are incompletely understood. In addition to the ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2015)Scarabaeine dung beetles are the dominant dung feeding group of insects and are widely used as model organisms in conservation, ecology and developmental biology. Due to the conflicts among 13 recently published phylogenies ...
