Climate change and the cost of conserving species in Madagascar.
We examined the cost of conserving species as climate changes. We used a Maxent species distribution model to predict the ranges from 2000 to 2080 of 74 plant species endemic to the forests of Madagascar under 3 climate scenarios. We set a conservation target of achieving 10,000 ha of forest cover for each species and calculated the cost of achieving this target under each scenario. We intervie...
متن کاملHigh frequency of human enterovirus species C circulation in Madagascar.
Four poliomyelitis outbreaks caused by vaccine-derived polioviruses have been reported recently, including one in Madagascar in 2002. In all cases, the viral strains involved were recombinant between poliovirus vaccine strains and nonpoliovirus strains, probably enterovirus species C. Nevertheless, little is known about the circulation and epidemiology of enteroviruses in the regions where thes...
متن کاملPhenotypic correlates of the lianescent growth form: a review
BACKGROUND As proposed by Darwin, climbers have been assumed to allocate a smaller fraction of biomass to support organs in comparison with self-supporting plants. They have also been hypothesized to possess a set of traits associated with fast growth, resource uptake and high productivity. SCOPE In this review, these hypotheses are evaluated by assembling and synthesizing published and unpub...
متن کاملThe (formerly) missing link
hen endothelial cells adhere to the extracellular matrix protein fibronectin, they can proliferate in response to growth factors. Adhesion to laminin, however, brings their cell cycles to a dead stop. Why? Given that the response depends on the composition of the extracellular matrix, Filippo Giancotti and his colleagues at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (New York, NY) proposed in 1...
متن کاملTwo new species of Ameroidea (Acari: Oribatida) from Madagascar
Two new oribatid mite species, Hymenobelba exclamationis and Pteramerus clypeatus spp. nov. (Ameridae), are described and illustrated based on specimens collected from mossy montane rainforest in the Malagasy Republic, Toamasina Province, Maromizaha forest. Both of them show a great variation of peculiar morphological features as having or not the costuliform prodorsal structure, the number and...
