Sussman,Ruliang Pan,Inza Koné,Baoguo Li +31 more
TL;DR: Raising global scientific and public awareness of the plight of the world’s primates and the costs of their loss to ecosystem health and human society is imperative.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mantel test in population genetics
José Alexandre Felizola Diniz-Filho,Thannya Nascimento Soares,Jacqueline de Souza Lima,Ricardo Dobrovolski,Victor Lemes Landeiro,Mariana Pires de Campos Telles,Thiago F. Rangel,Luis Mauricio Bini +7 more
TL;DR: This review shows that a careful application and interpretation of Mantel tests, especially Mantel correlograms, can overcome some potential statistical problems and provide a simple and useful tool for multivariate analysis of spatial patterns of genetic divergence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climatic history and dispersal ability explain the relative importance of turnover and nestedness components of beta diversity
Ricardo Dobrovolski,Adriano S. Melo,Fernanda A. S. Cassemiro,José Alexandre Felizola Diniz-Filho +3 more
TL;DR: The proportion of beta diversity attributed to nestedness was negatively correlated with cell age, and this effect was stronger for amphibians than mammals, and stronger for mammals than birds.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The anthropogenic pressures each country is facing that place their primate populations at risk are examined and the key challenges faced by the four countries to avert primate extinctions now and in the future are listed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Areas of climate stability of species ranges in the brazilian cerrado: disentangling uncertainties through time
Levi Carina Terribile,Matheus S. Lima-Ribeiro,Miguel B. Araújo,Nair Bizão,Rosane Garcia Collevatt,Ricardo Dobrovolski,Amanda Assis Franco,François Guilhaumon,Jacqueline de Souza Lima,Devanir Mitsuyuki Murakami,João Carlos Nabout,Guilherme de Oliveira,Leciane Karita de Oliveira,Suelen Gonçalves Rabelo,Thiago F. Rangel,Lorena Mendes Simon,Thannya Nascimento Soares,Mariana Pires de Campos Telles,José Alexandre Felizola Diniz Filho +18 more
TL;DR: An approach based on hierarchical ANOVA was proposed to reduce uncertainties and to identify climatically stable areas, working with Cerrado tree species as a model organism, and a single continuous Climatically stable area was identified.
