The prominent role of the matrix in ecology, evolution, and conservation
As the Anthropocene proceeds, the matrix in which remaining habitats are embedded is an
increasingly dominant component of altered landscapes. The matrix appears to have …

Dispersal syndromes in challenging environments: A cross‐species experiment
Dispersal is a central biological process tightly integrated into life‐histories, morphology,
physiology and behaviour. Such associations, or syndromes, are anticipated to impact the …

Plastic cell morphology changes during dispersal
Dispersal is the movement of organisms from one habitat to another that potentially results in
gene flow. It is often plastic, allowing organisms to adjust dispersal movements depending …
