Pesticide use has become widespread around the globe, and mounting evidence has demonstrated health impacts on non-target insects such as bees. However, less is known about whether the presence of these chemicals in plant tissue can alter i...

Leaf traits often vary with plant neighbourhood composition, which in turn may mediate plant susceptibility to herbivory. However, it is unknown whether there are any common patterns of change in leaf trait expression in response to neighbo...
Convergent remodelling of the gut microbiome is associated with host energetic condition over long-distance migration [0.03%]
长距离迁徙过程中宿主能量状况与肠道微生物群的趋同重构有关

The gut microbiome can be thought of as a virtual organ given its immense metabolic capacity and profound effects on host physiology. Migratory birds are capable of adaptively modulating many aspects of their physiology to facilitate long-d...

1. Hosts and their parasites exist within complex ecological communities. However, the role that non-focal community members, species which cannot be infected by a focal pathogen, may play in altering parasite transmission is often only stu...
Toxin tolerance across landscapes: Ecological exposure not a prerequisite [0.03%]
整个景观中的毒素耐受性:生态暴露不是必要条件

Little is known about the tolerances of mammalian herbivores to plant specialized metabolites across landscapes.We investigated the tolerances of two species of herbivorous woodrats, Neotoma lepida (desert woodrat) and Neotoma bryanti (Brya...
Helminth-associated changes in host immune phenotype connect top-down and bottom-up interactions during co-infection [0.03%]
肠道寄生线虫感染通过改变宿主免疫表型连接高位营养级和低位营养级之间的相互作用
Mauricio Seguel,Sarah A Budischak,Anna E Jolles et al.
Mauricio Seguel et al.
1. Within-host parasite interactions can be mediated by the host and changes in host phenotypes often serve as indicators of the presence or intensity of parasite interactions. 2. Parasites like helminths induce a range of physiological, mo...
High-resolution 3D forest structure explains ecomorphological trait variation in assemblages of saproxylic beetles [0.03%]
高分辨率三维森林结构解释了腐木甲虫群落生态形态特征变异
Lukas Drag,Ryan C Burner,Jörg G Stephan et al.
Lukas Drag et al.
Climate, topography and the 3D structure of forests are major drivers affecting local species communities. However, little is known about how the specific functional traits of saproxylic (wood-living) beetles, involved in the recycling of w...
Is species richness mediated by functional and genetic divergence? A global analysis in birds [0.03%]
功能和遗传分化调节物种丰富度吗?鸟类的全球分析

Unravelling why species richness shows such dramatic spatial variation is an ongoing challenge. Common to many theories is that increasing species richness (e.g. with latitude) requires a compensatory trade-off on an axis of species' ecolog...

A widespread effect of climate change is the displacement of organisms from their thermal optima. The associated thermal stress imposed by climate change has been argued to have a particularly strong impact on male reproduction but evidence...
Soil carbon storage is related to tree functional composition in naturally regenerating tropical forests [0.03%]
热带森林土壤碳储量与树木功能构成相关性研究

Regenerating tropical forests are increasingly important for their role in the global carbon cycle. Carbon stocks in above-ground biomass can recover to old-growth forest levels within 60-100 years. However, more than half of all carbon in ...
