Abstract To clarify the effect of niche conservatism on evolutionary history, we focused on freshwater snails, which have different ecological and phylogenetic properties from previously tested taxa. We conducted a phylogenetic analysis using 750 lymnaeid individuals from 357 sites of eleven Radix s...

Revealing the species and lineage diversity of a taxon is important for many biological studies of wildlife. In recent decades, DNA-based approaches have been widely utilised to elucidate the diversity of taxa, especially those that are difficult to distinguish based on morphological traits. This st...

Abstract. Eddy covariance observations play a pivotal role in understanding the land–atmosphere exchange of energy, water, carbon dioxide (CO2), and other trace gases, as well as the global carbon cycle and earth system. To promote the networking of individual measurements and the sharing of data, F...

Reliable identification of species is important for protecting native ecosystems against the invasion of non-native species. DNA barcoding using molecular markers, such as the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 (COI) gene, helps researchers distinguish species. In this study, we focused on i...

Establishing a robust taxonomic foundation is crucial for biodiversity conservation. Bangladesh harbours potentially unique biodiversity that remains inadequately explored. Concurrently, its biodiversity faces substantial pressure owing to environmental changes; thus, an urgent assessment of its cur...

Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins with diverse biological functions, particularly their roles in innate immunity through the recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns and mediation of non-specific immune responses. This study investigates the bioactivities of mucus lectins derive...
