Journal ArticleDOI

American Gut: an Open Platform for Citizen Science Microbiome Research.

Daniel McDonald, +64 more
TL;DR: The utility of the living data resource and cross-cohort comparison is demonstrated to confirm existing associations between the microbiome and psychiatric illness and to reveal the extent of microbiome change within one individual during surgery, providing a paradigm for open microbiome research and education.
Journal ArticleDOI

Species coextinctions and the biodiversity crisis.

TL;DR: This model examines the relationship between coextinction levels (proportion of species extinct) of affiliates and their hosts across a wide range of coevolved interspecific systems and estimates that 6300 affiliate species are “coendangered” with host species currently listed as endangered.
Journal ArticleDOI

The sixth mass coextinction: are most endangered species parasites and mutualists?

TL;DR: This work discusses the interactions and synergies between coextinction and other drivers of species loss, particularly climate change, and suggests the way forward for understanding the phenomenon of co Extinction, which may well be the most insidious threat to global biodiversity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recovery of Faunal Communities During Tropical Forest Regeneration

TL;DR: Because species richness for many taxa appears to recover relatively rapidly in secondary forests, conservation of secondary forests may be an effective investment in future diversity.
Journal ArticleDOI

The biogeography of prediction error: why does the introduced range of the fire ant over-predict its native range?

TL;DR: It is argued that reciprocal comparisons between predicted native and invaded ranges will facilitate a better understanding of the biogeography of invasive and native species and of the role of SDMs in predicting future distributions.
