Increases in species richness cause decreases in phylogenetic diversity in Mediterranean and Temperate plant assemblages [0.03%]
物种丰富度的增加导致地中海和温带植物群落的系统发育多样性降低

Arantzazu L Luzuriaga et al.
The relationship between taxonomic and phylogenetic diversities remains underexplored. Our goal was to determine whether a causal link exists between species richness and phylogenetic diversity and to determine the direction of this relatio...
Intraspecific and environmental variation mediate seed finding effectiveness among scatter-hoarding small mammals [0.03%]

About half of all plant species rely on animals such as scatter-hoarding small mammals for seed dispersal. These plants include many keystone species for which small mammals are key primary and secondary dispersal agents as well as seed pre...
Social cues from neighboring patches influence patch dynamics in a spatially structured population of a colonial bird [0.03%]
邻近领地的社交线索影响空间分结构化种群中殖民型鸟类领地动态

Killian A Gregory et al.
The dynamics of spatially structured populations (SSPs) depend on dispersal movements between habitat patches. Individual-level studies show that dispersal can be informed by social cues about habitat quality, such as breeding success or th...
Spatial heterogeneity in density dependence across life-history stages drives the dynamics of a bird metapopulation [0.03%]
生活史各阶段的空间异质性密度制约驱动鸟类元种群动态

Density-dependent effects on individual vital rates play a critical role in determining a population's equilibrium size and rate of return following stochastic disturbances. In fragmented landscapes, spatial variation in density dependence ...
Waterborne transmission largely contributes to the epidemiology of a plankton parasite [0.03%]
水生传播在浮游生物寄生虫流行病学中占主要地位

Understanding how parasites spread is crucial for preventing infections and predicting epidemic dynamics. These efforts are challenging for environment-borne parasites because transmission is host density-independent. We monitored the dynam...

Marsupials are an important but typically neglected group of mammals that have been overlooked in many comparative analyses of vertebrate ecology and life history evolution. In order to address this knowledge bias, we have developed The Mar...

Microorganisms are ubiquitous in nature, representing a significant portion of global biodiversity and playing vital roles in ecosystem functions, biogeochemical cycles, and organismal health. The growing recognition of microbial importance...
Functional distinctiveness and rarity highlight climate vulnerability of mountain birds [0.03%]
功能特有性与珍稀性突出了山地鸟类的气候脆弱性

The loss of both functionally distinct and geographically restricted (i.e., rare) species can limit the capacity of ecological communities to respond to ongoing environmental changes. Mountains, which harbor high biodiversity and unique spe...
Associational effects need to be studied within an optimal foraging framework [0.03%]
关联效应需要在最优觅食理论框架下进行研究

Emilie Champagne
In the field of plant-herbivore interactions, a key question is to understand which plants will be consumed. From the point of view of herbivores, this question takes the form of how animals select resources. To answer it, the theory of opt...
