Oxidative stress may be of profound biological relevance. In this Commentary, I discuss
some key issues faced by the emerging field of oxidative stress ecology, and seek to provide …

Ubiquitous plastic pollution is a threat to the organisms' survival and ecosystem functions,
especially in aquatic environments. Although there is increasing concern about the toxicity of …

For decades, a vast majority of biogerontologists assumed that aging is not and cannot be
an adaptation. In recent years, however, several authors opposed this predominant view …

There is considerable interest of evolutionary ecologists in the proximate mechanisms that
constrain life‐history variation. It is increasingly recognized that oxidative stress may be a …

To explore the role of protective enzymes in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) resistance
to mites, transgenic cassava lines overproducing copper/zinc superoxide dismutase …

Life-history strategies vary dramatically between the sexes, which may drive divergence in
sex-specific senescence and mortality rates. Telomeres are tandem nucleotide repeats that …

BACKGROUND Insects living in unfavorably high or low temperatures are predicted to
display a fast or slow life‐history strategy. Here, we examined life histories of fall armyworm …

One of the central tenets of life-history theory is that organisms cannot simultaneously
maximize all fitness components. This results in the fundamental trade-off between …

Oxygen is essential for most animals, and exposure to a complete lack of oxygen, ie anoxia,
can result in irreparable damage to cells that can extend up to the organismal level to …

The environmental conditions an organism encounters during development vary in their
lasting impact on adult phenotypes. In the context of ongoing climate change, it is …
