Rol de la cronología de anidación y las características parentales en el éxito reproductivo del piquero de Nazca (Sula granti) en Isla de la Plata, Ecuador [PDF]

, 2017
Reproductive success in Sula granti could be influenced by nesting initiation timing, body condition and sexual size dimorphism (SSD). The objective of this investigation is to establish if in S. granti reproductive success is related with nesting timing,

Mate desertion affects offspring survival, development and physiology in a songbird with multiple parental strategies

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 323-337, February 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Sexual conflict affects the amount and duration of offspring care each parent invests, resulting in multiple parental care strategies sometimes coexisting within a single population.

Relación entre la densidad de anidación y el éxito reproductivo en el Piquero de Nazca (Sula granti), Isla de la Plata, Ecuador [PDF]

, 2017
Multiple hypotheses have been proposed to explain the prevalence of the habit of colonial nesting in seabirds. In the Nazca bobby (Sula granti), a marine bird with colonial nesting, the reproductive success is apparently determined by factors such as ...

Trait‐mediated effects driven by an invasive herbivore alter functionally diverse plant–frugivore interactions

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 216-228, January 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Fruit traits play a fundamental role in mediating plant‐frugivore interactions, shaping seed dispersal dynamics. Given the complexity of multi‐species interactions, these traits and, consequently, plant‐frugivore interactions can be indirectly influenced by third‐party ...

No-reproducing of Varroa jacobsoni in Apis mellifera iberica [PDF]

, 1998
We checked no-reproduction of Varroa jacobsoni in a honeybee race, Apis mellifera iberica. Two groups of three colonies from different apiaries located in Cazorla (Jaén) were checked.

Salty suitors: High larval sodium intake reduces adult lifespan and influences reproductive behaviour in a lepidopteran herbivore

Ecological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 5, Page 886-898, October 2025.
Low‐sodium females took significantly longer to start mating than high‐sodium females, but no pairings differed in the duration of copulation. Reproductive outputs, measured by number of clutches, hatching young, adult offspring and pupation time, did not differ across parental sodium pairings.

Ecological fitness [PDF]

, 2013
Existe un acuerdo relativo en la necesidad de distinguir dos usos del término «fitness»: el ecológico y el de la genética de poblaciones. Algunos consideran que el segundo ha venido a reemplazar al primero.

Water‐saving strategies in rice farming entail cascading effects in prey–predator interactions across ecosystem boundaries

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 9, Page 2273-2282, September 2025.
These results show that introducing multiple drainage periods in rice fields (i.e. AWD) indirectly hampers terrestrial spider reproduction through limiting the emergence of potential preys from the aquatic to terrestrial boundaries. MSD resulted in a more conciliatory strategy as it largely reduces methane emissions and does not affect predator–prey ...
