Quality, then quantity: determinants of autochthony in freshwater food webs [0.03%]
质量,然后是数量:淡水中食网土著性的决定因素

Understanding how resource quantity and quality shape food webs is a central question in ecology. In freshwater ecosystems, autochthonous organic matter (OM) generally offers higher nutritional quality than allochthonous OM. Although freshw...
Honeydew-mediated indirect interactions: magnet and spillover effects of an invasive willow-aphid complex [0.03%]

Indirect interactions are key drivers of community structure, yet their role in invasion ecology remains understudied. In riparian ecosystems of northern Patagonia, invasive willows (Salix fragilis) frequently host dense colonies of the inv...

As bees' primary source of protein and lipids, pollen is a nutritional resource key to the persistence of wild populations. Because bee taxa may differ in their pollen macronutrient requirements, and pollen is a limited resource that varies...
Field warming increases activity time, body mass and abundance of field slugs in an alpine meadow [0.03%]
田间增温增加了高山草甸田螺的活动时间、体重和密度

Global warming can alter not only the seasonal timing of animal activity but also daily activity, a fundamental dimension of animal behavior with important consequences for energy acquisition and species performance. Although studies have f...
'Fast' and 'slow' water handling strategies explain pinyon pine decline and juniper expansion [0.03%]
“快”和“慢”的储水策略解释了松树的衰落与刺柏的扩张
Faraz Rehman,Andrew Kulmatiski,Lillian Gordon et al.
Faraz Rehman et al.
Semiarid forests in the western USA have undergone large-scale shifts in dominance due to decreasing pinyon pine abundance and increasing juniper abundance. This shift has been attributed to fast water loss in aboveground pinyon tissues dur...
Cross-ecosystem engineers: the dual role of fruit bats in cave nutrient dynamics and landscape seed dispersal [0.03%]
跨界生态工程师:果实蝙蝠在洞穴营养动态和景观种子传播中的双重作用

Maricélio de Medeiros Guimarães et al.
Bats provide key ecosystem services, yet their dual role in subterranean habitats remains understudied. Frugivorous species such as Artibeus planirostris can act both as seed dispersers in surface environments and as sources of organic matt...
A synthesis of stomatal sensitivity to ABA across species and experiments [0.03%]
跨物种和实验的叶表皮气孔细胞对ABA敏感度的合成分析

Significant effort has been put into understanding the role of abscisic acid (ABA) on stomatal response to water stress. However, the parametrization of ABA controls in current models of stomatal conductance ([Formula: see text]) remains ch...
Climate variability reduces biomass stability in species-rich grasslands, depending on management [0.03%]
降水变异度通过管理方式依赖性地降低物种丰富草地的生物量稳定度

Yva Herion et al.
Climate change threatens grassland biomass stability, but combined effects of climate variability and grassland management have rarely been analyzed, constraining our ability to predict management-dependent responses. In a large field exper...
Aphid honeydew reduces soil nitrogen and increases host plant growth [0.03%]
蚜虫分泌的蜜露减少土壤氮含量并增加宿主植物生长

Louie H Yang et al.
Plants are known to affect their soils in ways that can have positive or negative effects on themselves and other plants, often described as plant-soil feedbacks. However, less is known about the potential for herbivores to change the soil ...
