Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic variation in a desert aquatic snail (Nymphophilus minckleyi) from Cuatro Ciénegas, Coahuila, Mexico
TL;DR: Cluster analysis of Nei’s genetic distance did not show populations grouping according to drainages, although it did reveal alternative clusters, and two distinct morphotypes were found that were supported as genetically distinct groups by the allozyme data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant genotype influences aquatic‐terrestrial ecosystem linkages through timing and composition of insect emergence
Zacchaeus G. Compson,Bruce A. Hungate,Thomas G. Whitham,Nashelly Meneses,Posy E. Busby,Todd Wojtowicz,Audrey C. Ford,Kenneth J. Adams,Jane C. Marks +8 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the genetic structure of riparian forests can affect the composition and timing of aquatic insect emergence, and illustrates the importance of plant genes for community and ecosystem processes in riparian corridors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anaemia and skin disease.
Jane C. Marks,Stephen M. Shuster +1 more
TL;DR: A description of a few situations in which anaemia and skin disease are associated, and a few examples chosen either because they are considered to be important, or because the author has some special knowledge of them.
Journal ArticleDOI
Closely Related Tree Species Differentially Influence the Transfer of Carbon and Nitrogen from Leaf Litter Up the Aquatic Food Web
Zacchaeus G. Compson,Bruce A. Hungate,George W. Koch,Steve C. Hart,Jesse M. Maestas,Kenneth J. Adams,Thomas G. Whitham,Jane C. Marks +7 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated how isotopically labeled leaf litter can be used to assess the functioning of insect communities, uncovering patterns undetected by traditional approaches and improving the understanding of the association between food web structure and element cycling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Litter identity affects assimilation of carbon and nitrogen by a shredding caddisfly
Adam C. Siders,Zacchaeus G. Compson,Bruce A. Hungate,Paul Dijkstra,George W. Koch,Adam S. Wymore,A. Stuart Grandy,Jane C. Marks +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors test the hypothesis that slow decomposition rates promote element transfer from litter to insects, whereas rapid decomposition favors microbes, and demonstrate that slowly decomposing litters provide a critical resource for insects.
