Fig. 4 Species variation in relative g lucocor ticoid abundance. (A) For four out of the five species tested, the release rate of corticosterone was lower than the release rate of cortisol. In D. tinctorius , corticosterone was released 1.64 times more than cortisol. Larger dots indicate the mean for each group. Smaller dots represent individual samples (NS = not significant, * = P < 0.05, ** = P < 0.001, *** = P < 0.0001). (B) The species names correspond to the respective photos beneath the x -axis labels. The tree below the photos indicates the #phylogenetic relationships between species (Guillory et al. 2019 ).

I am so very excited to share the first data paper from my new lab, online now!
We show that sex and reproductive condition shape thermal acclimation strategies in a plethodontid salamanders. This raises many new and intriguing questions! π€

I gotta say, Command-F-ing my grant proposal for the words "diversity" and "climate change" feels like a hopeless place to start the week. Welcoming better ideas.
