Animal-Plant Interaction Vol. I

, 2023
Animal-plant interaction is an important factor in maintaining the ecological balance and shows a variety of positive and negative associations. The interactions provide plants with benefits of mainly pollination, seed dispersal, and nutrient cycling and animals get the reward of nectar, food, and shelter.

Dispersal abilities favor commensalism in animal-plant interactions under climate change

Science of The Total Environment, 2022
Scientists still poorly understand how biotic interactions and dispersal limitation jointly interact and affect the ability of species to track suitable habitats under climate change. Here, we examine how animal-plant interactions and dispersal limitations might affect the responses of Brazil nut-dependent frogs facing projected climate change.

Ruminal microbiota–host interaction and its effect on nutrient metabolism

Animal Nutrition, 2021
Rumen microbiota has a close and intensive interaction with the ruminants. Microbiota residing in the rumen digests and ferments plant organic matters into nutrients that are subsequently utilized by the host, making ruminants a unique group of animals ...

A new trend on sustainable animal production [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2022
A sustainable animal production can improve the efficiency of animal production and recycle of animal waste, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It can be achieved by firstly, properly operation of animal production, such as improvement by animal ...

Frugivore Population Biomass, but Not Density, Affect Seed Dispersal Interactions in a Hyper-Diverse Frugivory Network

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Mutualistic interactions are regulated by plant and animal traits, including animal body size and population density. In seed dispersal networks, frugivore body size determines the interaction outcome, and species population density determines ...

O-antigen structural variation: mechanisms and possible roles in animal/plant–microbe interactions [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2002
Current data from bacterial pathogens of animals and from bacterial symbionts of plants support some of the more general proposed functions for lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and underline the importance of LPS structural versatility and adaptability. Most of the structural heterogeneity of LPS molecules is found in the O-antigen polysaccharide.

Role of epigenetics in regulating defense mechanisms [PDF]

مجله بیوتکنولوژی کشاورزی, 2019
Objective Epigenetics contains studying inheritable genetic variations that affect on gene expression pattern, but these variations do not create because of changes in DNA sequence. In addition, organisms are resistant to pathogens through some molecular

A global review on the role of small rodents and lagomorphs (clade Glires) in seed dispersal and plant establishment

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2022
Zoochory is an ecologically and evolutionarily important seed dispersal type. The decline and extinction of seed-dispersing large herbivores severely threatens dispersal-driven ecosystem processes in many regions.

Plant ecology meets animal cognition: impacts of animal memory on seed dispersal [PDF]

, 2016
We propose that an understanding of animal learning and memory is critical to predicting the impacts of animals on plant populations through processes such as seed dispersal, pollination and herbivory.
