The phrase "and the ecological implications" is correct and usable in written English.
You can use it when discussing the effects or consequences of an action, policy, or phenomenon on the environment.
Example: "The study examined the effects of urban development on local wildlife and the ecological implications of habitat loss."
Alternatives: "and the environmental consequences" or "and the ecological effects".
Nowadays the increase in fuel prices and the ecological implications are giving an impulse to energy technologies that better exploit the primary energy source and integrated production of utilities should be considered when designing a new production plant.
She tackles some hot button issues like fracking and the ecological implications of our oil addiction in a way that avoids many of the typical didactic pitfalls.
Large-scale metagenomic analyses of marine microbial communities have resulted in findings that have substantially increased our understanding of how microbes interact with their environment and the ecological implications of such interactions [37], [39], [41], [42], [60].
However, none have looked for or identified environmental factors that alter the behavior of endophytes in natural ecosystems, their relationships to hosts, and the ecological implications for the niche-space filling (spatial and environmental patterns of distribution and abundance) of host plant species.
It is fundamental to combine the analysis of how different traits are integrated in their response to internal and external cues with an analysis of the mechanisms of differences in response to those cues and the ecological implications of changes in individual traits.
The wide distribution of the PLTS among prokaryotes is a unique characteristic compared with the needle-like assemblies known to date and raises central questions related to the biology of this machinery, to its host/target range, and to the ecological implications of its introduction as a bacterial fitness determinant in mixed prokaryotic communities.
Combining the functional context of eQTLs and the ecological implication of environmental correlation provides important insights for future elucidation of the mechanism and selection pressure of regulatory adaptation.
Also the detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by whole-cell biosensors may be a valuable tool for a better understanding of the ecological implications and impact of the soil VOCs emissions, and on the transfer of pollutant VOCs to the atmosphere.
These results augment and refine previous conclusions about the ecological implications of the genetic architecture of quantitative traits, emphasizing a role of adaptive accuracy.
Beyond the need to further study the ecological implications and underlying mechanisms of gradient responsiveness, our results exemplify the yet to be explored significance of dynamic processes and the potential role for their information content in ecological systems.
We combine experimental ecology, field observation and molecular ecological approaches to investigate the ecological implications of a flower size/number trade-off in a clade of tropical forest canopy and emergent trees.
