Article
Full-text available
Despite the central role of microorganisms in soil fertility, little understanding exists regarding the impact of management practices and soil microbial diversity on soil processes. Strong correlations among soil microbial composition, management practices, and microbially mediated processes have been previously shown. However, limited integration...

Chinampería, a jeopardized precolonial agricultural practice, persists in the Xochimilco wetland, Mexico City. Agroecological chinampa production is a recognized UNESCO World Heritage Site, and contributes to the sustainability of both the urban wetland and the city. The ‘chinampa-refuge’ model (CRM) is a transdisciplinary effort to strengthen trad...
Article
Full-text available
The current global situation with a dominant economic development model producing social inequality, increment and intensification of urbanization has generated severe environmental degradation and an associated increase in the likelihood of pandemics. New strategies that strengthen sustainable food production are urgent in highly unequal countries...
Article
Full-text available
As cities overgrow, the need for ecological restoration is becoming increasingly urgent, especially in densely populated areas. Urban ecological restoration represents the best approach to undertake damages to restore native ecosystem remnants fulfilling biodiversity but also social goals in dense urban settings such as Mexico City. The feasibility...
Article
Full-text available
Incorporating the views and perceptions of local farmers and other actors with stakes in agricultural production is critical for better-informed decision making and tackling pressing issues, such as soil degradation. We conducted a study that sought to integrate and analyze perceptions regarding the quality and degradation of agricultural soils acr...

Protected urban green spaces (PUGS) are exposed to numerous disturbances and threats since they are immersed in highly dynamic socio-ecological systems. PUGS in highly urbanized cities require particular conservation strategies. Here, we propose an approach for PUGS management which integrates three components: (i) scientific knowledge (monitoring/...

Amphibians are the vertebrate group with the highest number of species threatened with extinction, and habitat loss and fragmentation are considered to be among the leading causes of their declines and extinctions. Little is known of the population biology of amphibian species inhabiting montane forests in Central and West Africa, where anthropogen...
Data
Raw data of Cardioglossa schioetzi and Leptodactylodon bicolor. Together, the two preferred primer combinations ESP1B/MSP3 and ESP1B/MSP6 yielded 275 loci for the 198 samples representing both species. (XLSX)
Data
Outcomes from structure without using population data for Leptodactylodon bicolor. Graph (A) and bar plot (C) depict the optimal K based on the Ln(K) K = 7, whereas graph (B) and bar plot (D) show the better K based on Evanno‘s method ΔK = 2. Each vertical bar represents an individual for which is shown the proportional genetic assignment to each c...

Outcomes from structure without using population data for Cardioglossa schioetzi. Graph A) and bar plot C) depict the optimal K based on the Ln(K) K = 5, whereas graph B) and bar plot D) show the better K based on Evanno‘s method ΔK = 2. Each vertical bar represents an individual for which is shown the proportional genetic assignment to each cluste...
Article
Although the conservation potential of low input coffee plantations has been widely proved, the effect of management intensity on insect herbivores and particularly caterpillar communities has been scarcely studied. We used a management intensity quantitative index to assess changes in leaf damage, abundance of all herbivores and caterpillar specie...
Article
Full-text available
The domestication syndrome of many plants includes changes in their mating systems. The evolution of the latter is shaped by ecological and genetic factors that are particular to an area. Thus, the reproductive biology of wild relatives must be studied in their natural distribution to understand the mating system of a crop species as a whole. Gossy...
Chapter
Las lagartijas del género Anolis son de gran importancia ecológica en los bosques tropicales de América y son un excelente grupo modelo para el estudio de los efectos de la fragmentación del hábitat sobre sus poblaciones. Anolis uniformis es la especie de lagartija más común en el bosque tropical perennifolio de la región de Los Tuxtlas. Su alta ab...
Data
Nigeria’s montane forests fall within the Cameroon Highlands Ecoregion and are exceptionally rich in endemic taxa including amphibians. The montane forests on the Mambilla Plateau, Nigeria, are of such limited extent that their small and isolated populations of endemic species are at high risk of extinction. At the Ngel Nyaki Forest Reserve, where...
