title: High heterogeneity in genomic differentiation between phenotypically divergent songbirds: A test of mitonuclear co-introgression

description: &lt;b&gt;Abstract&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Comparisons of genomic variation among closely related species often show more differentiation in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and sex chromosomes than in autosomes, a pattern expected due to the differing effective population sizes and evolutionary dynamics of these genomic components. Yet, introgression can cause species pairs to deviate dramatically from general differentiation trends. The yellowhammer (&lt;em&gt;Emberiza&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;citrinella&lt;/em&gt;) and pine bunting (&lt;em&gt;E&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;em&gt;leucocephalos&lt;/em&gt;) are hybridizing avian sister species that differ greatly in appearance and moderately in nuclear DNA, but that show no mtDNA differentiation. This discordance is best explained by adaptive mtDNA introgression—a process that can select for co-introgression at nuclear genes with mitochondrial functions (mitonuclear genes). To better understand these discordant differentiation patterns and characterize nuclear differentiation in this system, we investigated genome-wide differentiation between allopatric yellowhammers and pine buntings and compared it to what was seen previously in mtDNA. We found significant nuclear differentiation that was highly heterogeneous across the genome, with a particularly wide differentiation peak on the sex chromosome Z. We further investigated mitonuclear gene co-introgression between yellowhammers and pine buntings and found support for this process in the direction of pine buntings into yellowhammers. Genomic signals indicative of co-introgression were common in mitonuclear genes coding for subunits of the mitoribosome and electron transport chain complexes. Such introgression of mitochondrial DNA and mitonuclear genes provides a possible explanation for the patterns of high genomic heterogeneity in genomic differentiation seen among some species groups.&lt;/p&gt;

title: Walking the line: Investigating biophysical characteristics related to wildlife use of linear features

description: &lt;b&gt;Abstract&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Habitat restoration is a necessary component of wildlife conservation in anthropogenic landscapes. To ensure restoration initiatives achieve the desired effects on wildlife communities, it is useful to investigate how animals use landscape features. Understanding the relationships between wildlife use and ecological cues provides specific and measurable targets that can be used to measure restoration success. In western Canada, linear feature networks formed by seismic lines, pipelines, and roads have altered the boreal forest landscape and resulted in population declines for woodland caribou. Restoration is aimed at supporting caribou recovery by deterring linear feature use by caribou predators and ungulate competitors. Information on how linear feature characteristics facilitate or deter wildlife use supports restoration initiatives by providing specific targets for restoration. Here, we used wildlife track and sign data to investigate biophysical characteristics related to the use of linear features by canines, bears, deer, elk, and moose in caribou ranges of west-central and north-western Alberta and British Columbia. We built generalized linear mixed models consistent with three hypotheses that could explain likely mechanisms for use: 1) ease of movement, 2) risk avoidance, and 3) resource availability (prey and forage).&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Moose, deer, elk, and bears were more likely to use linear features with either human or game trails. Bears and canines were less likely to use seismic lines with greater lateral vegetation cover and taller vegetation, respectively. Moose, deer, and elk were more likely to use linear features with greater cover of ungulate forage taxa such as willow, birch, sedges, and forbs. These results suggest that restoration focusing on trails, online vegetation structure, and online vegetation type should deter predators and ungulate prey species to the overall benefit of caribou. Our study corroborates the findings of other research recommending structural and functional restoration utilizing high-intensity line blocking and vegetative regeneration. We provide specific targets for linear feature restoration to assist in prioritization according to restoration objectives, which translates to a broader goal of linking local-level restoration actions to landscape-level conservation goals. This approach to restoration has implications for any major system experiencing anthropogenic landscape change.&lt;/p&gt;

title: Data for: Implications of climate change for biocontrol efficacy across the northern range of the invasive plant Linaria dalmatica

description: &lt;b&gt;Abstract&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;The effect of insect biological control agents on invasive plant populations can vary spatially, and spatial variation in climate may drive regional variation in herbivory, and thus biocontrol efficacy. Within host plant populations, local plant abundance can also be affected by the spatial distribution of herbivores, but whether local patterns persist at larger scales is less well understood. We examined how infestation and damage of the stem-mining weevil &lt;em&gt;Mecinus janthiniformis&lt;/em&gt;, a specialist biocontrol agent of the invasive plant &lt;em&gt;Linaria dalmatica&lt;/em&gt;, varied with and among populations across the northern edge of the range in North America. We quantified weevil and invasive plant densities, as well as plant fecundity, stem diameter and height across sites spanning an area of ~39,000 km&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; in British Columbia, Canada. We found that specialist weevils did not respond to host plant density within sites across the study region. Instead, weevil attack and load were most sensitive to among-site variability in climate, with stems at warmer sites have four times as many weevils compared to stems at cooler sites. Weevils also reduced plant fecundity more at warmer sites, when controlled for plant size (stem diameter) with larger effects of weevils in thicker stems, indicating that &lt;span lang="EN-CA"&gt;&lt;em&gt;L. dalmatica&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-CA"&gt;suppression is highest in warmer locations where weevils are more abundant and environmental conditions more favorable&lt;/span&gt;. Our results suggest that, with climate change, the efficacy of biocontrol for &lt;em&gt;L. dalmatica&lt;/em&gt; will improve across the northern edge of the range. We recommend that at cooler sites, where biocontrols are less prevalent and effects on plant fecundity are weaker, alternative management strategies are necessary at this time. Across invasive plant species more generally, future studies that establish the role of climate in variability in biocontrol efficacy long after introduction can improve management of invasive plants under climate change.&lt;/p&gt;

title: Comprehensive Resource for Healthy Medication Practices

description: The Health Services Centre (HCS) for a BC First Nation supports the community with primary and emergency care, public health programming and medications. The Centre identified a clear community for proper resources aimed at improving medication practices. Limited guidance and access to resources regarding medication practices can lead to technical and logistical concerns that can impact patient care if not appropriately addressed. To address this need, the HCS partnered with the Entry-to-Practice PharmD Program at the University of British Columbia to develop a Comprehensive Resource for Healthy Medication Practices (the Resource). The goal of this Resource is to provide a comprehensive tool for the First Nation to improve the community’s culturally safe, effective and evidence-based management of medication ordering, storage, dispensing, education and disposal. These five categories were identified by the authors as encompassing the scope of the community’s expressed needs. The Resource has been designed to be easily accessible by staff both current and future, and specifically relevant to the needs of the First Nation and the Health Services Centre. An environmental scan and literature review were conducted, examining existing resources pertaining to culturally safe medication practices in Indigenous communities. This data was used to create a questionnaire to identify current procedures, community opinions and community suggestions pertaining to medication practices in the First Nation. Community engagement with members of the First Nation and staff at the Health Services Centre also took place through an in-person townhall and interviews. The project members developed each section of the resource based on interview and questionnaire data. The Resource was reviewed by university and community partners.

title: Mapping Traditional Medicine Workshops

description: The herbologist and doula at the Community Health Centre for a BC First Nation currently offers workshops to the community on local traditional medicines and plants. Certain plants only grow during specific times of the year, making the window to offer workshops fairly short. This project was a collaboration between students from the Entry-to-Practice PharmD Program at the University of British Columbia and the First Nation to create a booklet outlining the workshops offered each season, corresponding with the availability of plants used in traditional medicines. The project members interviewed the herbologist to gather relevant information. A booklet was created to present the workshops offered by the herbologist and information on the plants’ availability by season and traditional uses.

description: The presence of multiple global change factors affects most ecosystems, especially urban soils, which face stressors like heat, drought, road salt, nitrogen deposition, surfactants, microplastics, and heavy metals. These factors are often studied in isolation or in pairs, leaving their combined effects poorly understood. Importantly, understanding how removing a single factor impacts an ecosystem amidst multiple stressors is crucial for effective restoration.We explored this through a subtractive design, comparing single-factor treatments (addition) to treatments where a specific factor was removed (subtraction). The results varied: salinity had predominantly negative effects, warming had positive effects, and drought had mixed effects as single factors. However, removing these factors from a multi-factor context generally improved soil properties and biological processes. Microplastics and surfactants enhanced microbial activity individually but showed no such benefit in multi-factor scenarios.Our findings highlight that the combined effects of factors often differ from their individual impacts. In restoration, priority should be given to mitigating factors with the strongest negative influence in multi-stressor contexts, rather than targeting those with significant isolated effects. This approach can better address the complexities of global change in ecosystems.
