High germline mutation rates, but not extreme population outbreaks, influence genetic diversity in a keystone coral predator. by Iva Popovic, Lucie A Bergeron, Yves-Marie Bozec, Ann-Marie Waldvogel, Samantha M Howitt, Katarina Damjanovic, Frances Patel, Maria G Cabrera, Gert Wörheide, Sven Uthicke, Cynthia Riginos

“…Here, we provide the first germline mutation rate (μ) estimate for a marine invertebrate in corallivorous crown-of-thorns sea stars (Acanthaster cf. solaris). We use high-coverage whole-genome sequencing of 14 parent-offspring trios alongside empirical estimates of Nc in Australia's Great Barrier Reef to jointly examine the determinants of π in populations undergoing extreme Nc fluctuations. …”

Distribution Characteristics and Coupling Relationship Between Soil Erosion and Hydrologic and Sediment Connectivity in Changchong River Basin by LI Jianing, ZHANG Hongli, TIAN Changyuan, ZHANG Yi, ZHA Tonggang

“…The higher the grade, the higher the proportion of sunny slope area is. (4) Soil erosion has a significant positive correlation with hydrologic and sediment connectivity, mainly reflected in slope, slope direction, land use and elevation. [Conclusion] Improving the vegetation coverage and dominance of the Changchong River Basin to reduce its hydrologic and sediment connectivity can effectively reduce soil erosion and sediment production, and has an important impact on the ecological environment management, water and sediment control, and scientific prevention and control of soil and water loss in the small watershed.…”
