Regulation of weed seed dormancy through light and temperature interactions
Weed Science, 51(5), 752–758.
author keywords: germination; dormancy; phytochrome; chilling; red light; far-red light
TL;DR:
The effects of temperature and light on the dormancy of velvetleaf, common waterhemp, and giant foxtail seeds were studied under controlled growth chamber conditions and dormancy regulation was partially phytochrome regulated.

Vigilance, predation risk, and the allee effect in desert bighorn sheep
Journal of Wildlife Management, 68, 519–532.
author keywords: Allee effect; desert bighorn sheep; Felis concolor; mountain lion; New Mexico; Ovis canadensis; predation risk; reintroductions; selective removal; vigilance
TL;DR:
The use of multivariate techniques to simultaneously explore the influence of multiple factors and the use of vigilance as a correlate of predation risk would be useful management tools for assessing seasonal and class-specific vulnerability to predation.

Sexual segregation in desert bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis mexicana)
Behaviour, 140(2), 183–207.
TL;DR:
The results support the predictions of the 'reproductive strategy-predation risk hypothesis', which proposes that males seek more abundant forage in order to build up body condition needed to maximize mating success, while females choose rugged terrain that minimizes predation risk to themselves and their offspring (even if sacrificing forage abundance).

Ed(s): C. Jones
TL;DR:
Results indicate that ear-flicking, grouping, and microhabitat choice might be important strategies for reducing the costs of biting insects in desert bighorn sheep.

Potential causes of population declines in forest fragments in an Amazonian frog
BIOLOGICAL CONSERVATION, 111(2), 205–214.
author keywords: forest fragmentation; Colostethus stepheni; Amazonian Brazil; population decline; survival probability; clutch size; population simulations
TL;DR:
Investigation of potential causes of declines in forest fragments for an Amazonian forest frog at an experimental fragmentation study site in central Amazonian Brazil finds that a reduction in clutch size is sufficient to cause the observed magnitude of population declines in fragments.

Of mice and men and trillium: Cascading effects of forest fragmentation
ECOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS, 13(5), 1193–1203.
author keywords: demography; edge effects; habitat fragmentation; direct and indirect effects; landscape ecology; Pacific Northwest, USA; Peromyscus maniculatus; plant-animal interactions; population dynamics; trillium recruitment, southwest Oregon, USA
TL;DR:
Forest fragmentation has favored mouse populations, resulting in increased seed predation that may decrease recruitment rates and increase local extinction risks for trillium, which led to mouse densities 3-4 times higher at forest-fragment sites than at unfragmented sites.

Landscape location affects genetic variation of Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis)
MOLECULAR ECOLOGY, 12(7), 1807–1816.
author keywords: biogeography; landscape ecology; landscape genetics; Lynx canadensis; microsatellite; population genetics
MeSH headings : Alleles; Animals; Carnivora / genetics; Demography; Electrophoresis, Polyacrylamide Gel; Genetic Variation; Genetics, Population; Geography; Heterozygote; Microsatellite Repeats / genetics; North America
TL;DR:
It is shown that peripheral populations of lynx have fewer mean numbers of alleles per population and lower expected heterozygosity, which is surprising, given the lynx's capacity to move long distances, but can be explained by the fact that periphery populations often have smaller population sizes, limited opportunities for genetic exchange and may be disproportionately affected by ebbs and flows of species’ geographical range.

Identification of mustelids using mitochondrial DNA and non-invasive sampling
CONSERVATION GENETICS, 4(2), 241–243.
author keywords: fisher; Gulo gulo; hair snares; Martes; mitochondrial DNA; mtDNA; mustelids; non-invasive sampling; wolverine
TL;DR:
Non-invasives sampling of hairs left on hair snares can substan-tially increase the detection of elusive and secretive species and help make basic conservation decisions on listing, delisting, or threat status.
