Discordances between morphological systematics and molecular taxonomy in the stem line of equids: A review of the case of taxonomy of genus Equus por Kefena, E., Mekasha, Yoseph, Han, J.L., Rosenbom, S., Haile, Aynalem, Dessie, Tadelle, Beja-Pereira, A.

“…Based on the evidences from molecular data and review of late Pleistocene megafauna extinction in the Americas, we believe that horses were certainly domesticated in the Eurasian Steppe or elsewhere that survived late Pleistocene megafauna's extinction than in the Americas. …”

Fragmentation in semi-arid and arid landscapes: consequences for human and natural systems por Galvin, K.A., Reid, Robin S., Behnke, R.H., Hobbs, N.T.

“…These ecosystems are also home to several of the planet’s remaining megafauna, as well as other important species. Yet fragmentation across these rangelands has significantly impaired the ability of both people and animals to compensate for temporal heterogeneity in vegetation and water by exploiting its spatial heterogeneity, resulting in limited resource availability. …”

Integration of socio-ecological data to prioritize biodiversity hot-spots for Marine Protected Area (MPA) delineation in the coastal zone of Bangladesh por Sarker, Subrata, Hossain, Md. Shahadat, Das, Nabanita, Riya, Shashowti, Smriti, Sagorika, Mokarrom, Hossain, Rahman, Mohammad

“…The study revealed that the Kuakata coast has the highest conservation importance, especially for IUCN red-listed species, juvenile fisheries species, and megafauna species. Salimpur coast is important for the conservation of saltmarshes, mangroves, and their dependent communities, while Sandwip is crucial for juvenile fish species conservation. …”

Continuous observations of CO2 and CH4 exchange from East-African rangelands por Merbold, Lutz, Odongo, Vincent O., Dowling, T., Fava, F., Glücks, I., Vrieling, A., Wooster, M., Leitner, Sonja

“…Instead, pastoral livestock keeping is a valuable option to use these marginal lands and – under the right management – can be a sustainable form of food production and biodiversity protection given that most of these landscapes have co-evolved with megafauna over millennia. Despite the global role of livestock systems on climate change, there is still limited understanding on the role of SSA rangelands. …”

Domesticaciones americanas: cuando la recursividad humana con ayuda de algunas plantas hace maravillas contra el peso de la geografía y de la migración original por Debouck, Daniel G.

“…Al entrar en el interior del continente americano, nuestra especie contribuyó –por la caza continua– a la extinción de su megafauna. Una alteración climática hace 12 000-10 000 años (‘Dryas Joven’) obligó a cambiar un patrón de aprovechamiento de recursos naturales, de la cacería a la siembra consciente de las especies de plantas silvestres más buscadas cerca de los asentamientos. …”
